Amazing Salkantay 5-day tour! Everything was very well organized. Our guide, Hans, truly did his best to give us the best experience, thank you! Special thanks as well to Joel for the amazing food, and to Carlos and his team for taking great care of our luggage.

Incredible experience! 5 day Salkantay trek was so well organised and enjoyable. Our guides Aurelio and Elisban were supportive, informative and smiling every step of the way. Thank you so much🙏🏔️

Had a great time doing the Salkantay trek with Machu Picchu Team. Everything was really well organised from start to finish, and the whole experience felt smooth, supportive, and enjoyable.

The guides were excellent throughout the trek — friendly, encouraging, knowledgeable, and always making sure everyone was doing well. A special mention to Miguel, who told us really interesting stories about the history and culture of the area and the places we passed through. That added a lot to the experience and made the trek feel even more special.

The scenery was incredible, the atmosphere was great, and the team helped make it a memorable adventure. I’d definitely recommend Machu Picchu Team to anyone thinking about doing the Salkantay trek.

We had an amazing time on the 5-day Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu!

Our Guide Marco Antonio was not only highly professional but also incredibly friendly, attentive, and motivating throughout the trek.
Marco’s knowledge about the region, culture, and history made us feel safe and well taken care of at all times. His passion and experience really stood out and made the journey even more special.

Muchísimas Gracias y Sulpayki, Marco!

Hanz, Jose armando, and Joel created the perfect Salkantay trek for us. Hanz and Jose shared extensive and thoughtful knowledge and so much joy while Joel provided bountiful and diverse meals. Very fun, beautiful and exciting trip. Thanks you Machu Picchu Team!

I did the 5 day Salkantay trek and really had the best experience. Had the best company and really mostly thanks to our tour guide Marco Antonio I always felt safe and really good taken care of. Mostly I was surprised by how much extra information Marco provided for us about the history of the places and the local life, which made my trip even more special and amazing. Will never forget those days, thanks a lot!

Had the most amazing time with Machu Pichu Team doing the Salkantay trek! The team were fun, friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. The group was great and the additional activities provided were great fun! The food was so good (and they were able to cater for special dietary requirements). Genuinely an experience I’ll cherish forever!

A week that will live long in the memory!

Isolated, the visit to Machu Picchu alone would be worth it with Amoroso as an expert guide. But you’d be hard pushed to find a favourite day out of the 5 on the salkantay trip!

I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have shared this journey with a group that I would now call friends. Diverse in background/country/age, it’s a testament to Amoroso who managed and at times rallied all to ensure it was a collective achievement. He also committed enough time to get to know everyone individually (on the first day with names - which goes a long way). Sharing his wealth of knowledge and wisdom, not only over this trek (he knows like the back of his hand) but also in life. I strongly believe that the trip would not have been half the success without his experience, laughter and guidance.

I was skeptical about the difficulty of this hike and whether I would be able to complete. I had thought maybe that the distance could have been spread out but upon completion and reflection, amoroso and the Machu Picchu team have this spot on. I would admit that the dreaded days 2 and 4 were not even that taxing.

Accommodations were as shown and you’re going to find that the air will get through but I slept like a baby all 4 nights. Food was fine enough given the labour the labour the chef would have to put in and having it moved daily - I would maybe ask for more eggs in the morning but that’s just me.

An overall unforgettable experience that ended too quickly and I’ll certainly be recommending the Machu Picchu team and Amoroso to anyone that will listen!

My daughter and I completed the Salkantay 5 Day Trek.today. The initial communication via the Machu Picchu Team office was very good. Our guide ‘Zugar’ and his entire team made this a trip to remember forever - the food was always varied and fresh, the accommodation was very good, the trekking was challenging but rewarding and every day was different. Nothing was an inconvenience for Zugar during the trek no matter how big or small your needs and he made every day a happy experience. And if something didn’t quite go to plan (eg: avalanche blocking the road) Zugar always had a plan B to get us where we needed to be.
Great job Machu Picchu Team.
