Traveler Reviews

We had the most incredible experience on the 4-day Salkantay Trek with Machu Picchu Team. Everything was organised perfectly and exceeded all of our expectations.

The accommodation each night was amazing, comfortable, and far beyond what we expected on a trek like this. The chefs were absolutely amazing – every meal was fresh, delicious, and so impressive, especially considering where we were.

A huge thank you to our guide, Max, who truly made the trip unforgettable. He was hilarious, incredibly knowledgeable, and always kept the group entertained and created such a fun environment.

We couldn’t recommend Machu Picchu Team more highly. If you’re thinking about doing the Salkantay Trek, book with them – you won’t regret it!

Our family (parents with three grown-up kids age 15-20 years) went on the Salkantay 5-day trek a few days ago. The trek was really, really, well organised: the information during the trek, the transportation of bags, the meals, and the accomodation. We really enjoyed those five days of the trek.
A big thank to the Machu Picchu Team and the staff for doing a super job.
In particular, we would like to emphasize our guide, Alexis, who did a splendid job. He made a big effort to ensure that everybody in the group was fine, and he was always ready for relevant information and historical facts. Thank you, Alexis.
Even though the primary target group for the trek might be young people in the age range of 20-40 years, the treks is still well suited for people outside this age group (e.g., families with teenagers) that like hiking. We felt that we belonged to the group.
We defentively will recommend both this trek and the company to others.

I had an amazing experience with the Machu Picchu team during the Salkantay trek (4 days/ 3 nights). Neyser, our guide, was amazing - helpful and knowledgeable (learned a lot about the Incas and the Cusco region overall). His English is really good, making everything easy to understand.

The entire trek was really well organized - get ready for delicious food!

Did the 5-day Salkantay Trek with Max. One of the best tours I’ve been apart of. Max was extremely personable, knowledgeable and attentive. He taught me a lot about Quechuan culture and he was always looking out for every member in our group. It was lovely having such an experienced guide. The food throughout the trek was unreal so a big thanks to our chef Jesus.

What an amazing tour!! Neyser guided us through the mountains and rainforest finishing at Machu Picchu anyways sharing his experience and knowledge about Peru and its culture. The Salkantay hike is tough but definitely worth the long days and early mornings!!

We loved our experience with Macchu Picchu team. Our guides Max and Gab were outstanding. They know the area so well and are so warm and friendly. The food was excellent and the trek was breathtaking. They adjusted our itinerary on the fly so we could get to Aguas Calientes early to get in line for Macchu Picchu tickets as we booked our trip last minute and had to get them there. Overall couldn’t recommend more. Book with them they are the best!

Amazing experience doing the 5 day trek to Machu Picchu. Max was an amazing host/guide and we really learnt a lot about the Quechua people's and traditions! He was really engaging and friendly and made the experience really memorable. The food we had on the trip was absolutely class and the portions were very generous, this is a massive thanks to Jesus who travelled with us as the chef! The accommodation was amazing and really cool and the people who carried the bags on their mules made the trek even smoother by transporting our luggage. This process was seamless! Overall, just a really great experience!

Hemos hecho varias excursiones con esta empresa y todo ha ido fenomenal (Valle Sagrado, Montaña 7 colores...). Especial mención al trekking del Salkantay. Fue una experiencia única tanto por los paisajes como por los alojamientos, la comida y las caminatas. Muchas gracias a nuestros guías Gabriel y Max, que se preocuparon por nuestro bienestar y que todo fuera bien. Es un trekking exigente pero merece la pena!

An amazing experience. Max was an amazing tour guide, looking after all the group and educating us about so much on the trek - including the local medicinal plants and the Quechua culture. Gabriel was also amazing although only with us for a few days. The chef (Jesus) was also incredible, making some amazing meals for us. The accommodation was so good, seeing the stars and Milky Way on the first night was very special. It was amazing to have our duffel bags carried between camps by the horsemen, it made it so much easier for us during the day. Would really recommend this company to anyone! Thank you so much!

Max was a fantastic guide who took time to explain Quecha culture and keep the energy high

Shoutout to Jesus for his fantastic cooking I will miss the soups
