The Salkantay Hike to Machu Picchu was honestly the best thing I've done, and a big part of that was down to our guide, Edgarito. He kept the energy up throughout, gave us solid advice on pacing and altitude, and shared a ton of history and context along the way that made the trek way more than just a physical challenge.
Thanks also to the horse drivers for hauling our gear over tough terrain, and to the cooks, who put out multiple dishes at every single meal, impressive given where we were. It was great to try more home style local dishes, too!
And thanks to the company for keeping everything well organized and comfortable from start to finish. Highly recommend this team for the Salkantay route, ask for Edgarito.

The 4-Day Salkantay Trek was amazing. Our guides Juancho and Jean Pierre were great!! They told us so many things about the places and the culture and knew an answer to every question. They always prepared us perfectly for the next day, told us what to expect and motivatet us when the way was exhausting. We couldn't have imagined better guides for the tour, thank you!
The trip was very good, as well as the food. Big up to Isidro, the chef, for making such good and nutritious food for our hard treks.
