Reviews of 7 day Hiking & Trekking Tours
- Luxury Inca Trail to Machu Picchu 4 Days
Everything about our experience with TreXperience was amazing! Our guide Elvis was fantastic - he was incredibly knowledgeable, providing information about all of the Incan ruins and sites we encountered along the Inca trail. He took excellent care of our health and well-being, providing remedies and local tricks to help keep us warm and feeling good during the trek. Every meal was more delicious than the last one - it was hard to believe that our chef was preparing our food over propane burners in our tent. The accommodations were comfortable and luxurious - comfortable beds and camp chairs for our afternoons and evenings after trekking. I would absolutely recommend TreXperience to anyone who is looking to hike the Inca trail but who would like to also have additional care and comfort while out on the trail.
- Machu Picchu Jungle Trek 4D/3N (Biking Only)
We booked this trip quite long in advance because we were looking to do something that was not just a plain hike but included a lot of once-in-a-lifetime activities. This absolutely did that. Arriving in Cusco we stayed at Milhouse hostel (brilliant) and had a very informative pre-departure meeting the night before we left on our trek. We were 5 people and a guide which made it really wonderful and personal. The guide was able to give us all such great information. THE GUIDE Percy is probably the best guide in Peru :) His knowledge of the local culture and mountains and jungle are amaaazing. He grew up in Machu Picchu/ Aguas Calientes. You cannot ask for anyone better. He had such a great skill for always taking into account where our stamina levels were and what we were up for. THE ACTIVITIES Riding a bike for about 50km down a winding mountain road sounded like the least "scary" of all our activities but I have to say it was quite hectic for me. A bit scary but in a good way. The views are stunning and its an amazing experience but please be safe on those roads. We could not do the white water rafting unfortunately since the river was too high. I really appreciated the company being honest and rather cancelling an activity (and refunding us) rather than doing something which is not safe. The zip lining was amaaaaaazing. I read some pretty scary reviews before the time but this was wonderful. We felt 1000% safe. No crowds, no long lines, no time waiting around between zip lines. The suspension bridge was such a thrill as well. The hot springs were absolutely wonderful. Such a special place with the clearest water and spectacular views. Sitting around afterwards gazing at the mountains and enjoying a few cervezas was one of the highlights of our week. THE ACCOMMODATION They prepare you for "no Wi-Fi and almost no hot water." We had fantastic Wi-Fi every night at our hostels and great hot showers. The rooms are clean and mostly very spacious. The staff is absolutely wonderful. Accommodation was way above our expectations. THE FOOD The food was great. Mostly 3 course meals in local restaurants which feels like you are eating in a long-lost family member's dining room. Always enough bread, generally followed by a delicious soup, a main and sometimes a dessert. Accompanied by juice and coca leaf tea. Beer and softdrinks for your own account. THE GUIDE Did I mention how awesome our guide was. MACHU PICCHU Our last day on Machu Picchu was exactly worth all the hype. That place is amazing. Mind boggling. Great views. Amazing history. So much mystery and ambience. MY TOP TIPS 1. Mosquito repellent. Tons of it. Our guide warned us before the time and our group did not have more than a few bites but we passed other groups who were pretty much walking around as mosquito-buffets. 2. Sunscreen. Wear it. Lots of it. Tons of it. 3. Pack light. Our backpacks were too heavy because I didn't listen ;) Don't do it to yourself. Pack light and then take out a few more things. 4. Learn all you can. Eat local. Drink the local beer. Walk around in the local markets. Ask tons of questions. Learn a bit of Spanish so you can great people, thank people and ask a few basic questions. (Where? How much? How many?) FINALLY The hiking on the 2nd day was a bit tougher than we expected but other than that the physical impact is really not hectic. Do this trek if you want to see Peru from a whole new perspective.
- Kathmandu Valley Trek
Subarna was a wonderful guide! Full of knowledge, good humour and supported us all with any query or request we had. He went above and beyond the call of his job. I could not master the names of our two porters but have to say that they were lovely guys with big smiles and hearts and were pleasant company. Aside from that, I loved the tracks we went on, beautiful scenery, loved the diversity of the country-side and it was a huge pleasure to meet some of the locals along the way. Accommodation was excellent and meals were delicious. Am unable to think of any complaints at all. Had an amazing time!!
What our customers ask about 7 Day Hiking & Trekking Tours & Trips
When is the best time to book a 7-day hiking tour?
Timing really depends on where you're headed. For the Inca Trail, plan your trip between April and October when it's dry and temperatures stay between 68-77°F (20-25°C). If you're looking at Nepal, the best hiking happens from March to May or October to November - you'll get clear skies and comfortable temperatures around 59-68°F (15-20°C). The Atlas Mountains are nicest in spring (March-May) or fall (September-November), with temperatures hovering around 68-77°F (20-25°C). Just remember to book at least 6 months ahead if you're planning to hike popular trails during peak season.
What's the typical daily distance on a 7-day hiking tour?
Most days you'll cover between 7-15 kilometers (4.3-9.3 miles), but this changes based on the terrain and how high up you're going. Take the Annapurna Circuit - on day one, you'll walk about 12km (7.5 miles) from Soqma to Korimarca village. Over on Mount Toubkal, some days are shorter with 4.5km (2.8 mile) summit climbs, while others involve longer 11km (6.8 mile) descents. Our travelers say the pace works well for most people, with plenty of stops to catch your breath and take in the views.
What weather conditions should I prepare for?
Weather can be really different depending on where you're hiking. On Iceland's Laugavegur trail, expect temperatures between 44-53°F (6.7-11.7°C) and pack for rain and wind. The Lake District in England can be pretty unpredictable with frequent rain showers. In Nepal, it can get quite hot and humid, reaching 95-113°F (35-45°C). One of our travelers put it well: "we had sun, torrential rain, hail, thunder, lightning and even snow but the scenery made up for it." Best to come prepared for anything.
How challenging are the daily hiking distances?
Most days you'll walk between 10-15 kilometers (6-9 miles), but the difficulty really depends on the terrain. In the Lake District, a typical day might be 14km with 700m of climbing, while tougher days like Scafell Pike involve 15km with 970m of elevation gain. The Mardi Himal trek in Nepal usually means 4-6 hours of hiking each day, adjusted for altitude. One nice thing is that many tours offer different route options - as one of our travelers mentioned, "guides provided options for both challenging and easier walks."
What level of cultural interaction can I expect?
You'll get plenty of chances to experience local culture along these trails. Walking the Annapurna Circuit, you'll pass through Gurung villages and visit Buddhist monasteries. In the Atlas Mountains, you'll spend nights in traditional Berber villages like Tizi Oussem. One of our travelers shared this about the Inca Trail: "Beyond amazing views, we learned about Quechua culture from our guide, visited ancient sites, and enjoyed meals with local families in places like Ollantaytambo."
What's included in meals during a 7-day trek?
You'll usually get three meals a day while hiking. The food often mixes local dishes with hiking-friendly options. In Nepal, you might have dal bhat (lentils and rice), while in Morocco, mountain chefs cook up tagines and couscous. One of our travelers mentioned: "The food was excellent - our chef prepared amazing 3-course meals even at high altitude camps on Mount Toubkal." If you need vegetarian, vegan, or other special meals, just let them know when you book.
What type of accommodation can I expect on a 7-day trek?
Your sleeping arrangements will mix it up between camping and lodges. On the Inca Trail, you'll spend 3 nights camping and 3 nights in hotels like Casa Andina in Cusco. The Everest View Trek combines stays in village teahouses around Namche Bazaar with hotel nights in Kathmandu at places like the Yak & Yeti. Our travelers tell us that while mountain accommodations are basic, they're comfortable enough after a long day of hiking.
