- JLJuliane· March 7th, 2025Denne tur, var en af de vildeste, mest interessante og givende ture, jeg længe har været på. Jeg havde booket Salkantay-turen lang tid i forvejen, og mine forventninger var derfor skruet helt i top. Jeg kan med sikkerhed sige nu, at de blev mødt over al forventning. Jeg har efterhånden lært, at en vandretur er udgjort af så meget mere, end blot hvor mange kilometer man får gået, hvor højt man kommer op eller hvor mange vandfald eller bjerge man nu ser; en tur som denne, handler frem for alt, også om de mennesker man omgåes med i løbet af den tid man er afsted. Denne tur, ville altså langt fra have været det samme, hvis ikke vi havde haft vores fantastiske tourguide, Wilbert, med på rejsen. På bedste vis, formåede Wilbert, at dele, ikke mindst, sin massive passion og viden om peruviansk mad og kultur, men også inspirere vigtige snakke om livet og alle grundene til, at ture som Salkantay-trek er vigtige for at bibevare en del af Perus smukke kulturarv. Vi var en lille trio, dagene fløj afsted og vi kan kun forsikre andre om, at hvis man ender med Wilbert som guide på Salkantay-trek, er man garanteret en tryg og inspirerende tur med en enormt hjertevarm og endnu mere inspirerende mand. Tusind tak Inkayni! Denne tur glemmer vi aldrig!Show moreTrip date: March 2025
- Kristina· March 7th, 2025Jeg havde høje forventninger til den 5 dages salkantay treck, og jeg blev stadig enormt positivt overrasket. Det var over alle forventninger. Naturen, maden, hele arrangementet var bare 10/10. Vores guide hed Wilbert, og han gjorde en allerede spændene og yderst tilfredsstillende oplevelse, 100 gange bedre. Løsningsorienteret mand, en masse gode samtaler, hjælpsom, godt humør og en masse spænende historier om Peru, kultur og machu pichu. En meget vis mand med mange oplevelser i rygsækken. Karismatisk mand. Han lærte os så meget, og jeg er yderst taknemmelig. Jeg kunne ikke have ønsket mig end bedre guide til den 5 dages salkantey treck.Show moreTrip date: March 2025
- Hardeep· August 26th, 2024Best experience of my life with Wilbert! Although it was the most challenging mental and physical journey, it was also the most awarding. Wilbert was kind , knowledgeable, and flexible. We saw the most beautiful parts of Salkantay trek and Cusco. Highly recommend to ANYONE who is coming to Peru.Show moreTrip date: August 2024
- JBJustin· October 26th, 2022Congratulations!! This trek was an amazing local experience. Our Guide Herlin was an expert on the mountain with great recommendations on local springs and alternate routes for an even better adventure. Victor provided the horse support we needed for our gear and kept the horses well maintained and was ready to help whenever asked. Arminio the chef we really can't say enough about the quality, quantity and variety of dishes that come out of the tent that are fresh, delicious and local. Our experience was top notch and if your looking for adventure, this is the team to accomplish just that.Show moreTrip date: October 2022
- Cristopher· January 28th, 2022I did the 5-day tour to Salkantay, the Inkayni agency is very careful, everything very well organized, the places to sleep very nice and comfortable. Our guide Herlin was very friendly and with a good command of English and a great facility to make the group feel like a family, very attentive to everyone. The food was abundant, hot, varied, and delicious. A muleteer carries your big backpack, which makes the experience much more comfortable. I took pictures of beautiful landscapes that cannot be described in words. I would definitely hire the agency again for this and other treks.Show moreTrip date: January 2022
- Chris· January 28th, 2022I did the 5 day Salkantay - Machupicchu trek, one of the best experiences of my life! I was fortunate to have Percy Huaman and Justino as guides, both excellent guides and great people with great knowledge and passion for their work and culture. Even though we were a large group, they were always attentive to everyone's needs and our safety. The food was delicious, the service of the cooks and muleteers was A1. The campsites had excellent views of the surroundings. I recommend booking directly with Inkayni and live an amazing experience.Show moreTrip date: January 2022
- Hudson· January 28th, 2022I did the Salkantay 5 days with Inkayni Peru Tours and everything was excellent, starting with Herlin Apaza, our guide. A professional that in addition to his knowledge as a good tour guide you can tell he enjoys what he does and transmits his love and respect for the mountain. I would choose him again to do any other trek without hesitation! Besides that, I am very satisfied with all the services of the company, the food was incredible every day, the equipment and camping facilities are excellent. The trek was the best experience I have had in Peru and what a great way to end it by visiting Machu Picchu. In large part, it was a beautiful experience because I was lucky enough to find this company. Highly recommended.Show moreTrip date: January 2022
- Kaleb· January 27th, 2022Excellent alternative trekking to the Inca Trail, 100% recommendable, we formed an incredible human group, the food was unmatched and the service at all times was spectacular. Our guide was Saul, a person who knows a lot about this route, he was always attentive to our needs, very cool and the best guide we met in Peru! Incredible trekking and landscapes! Unforgettable experience. The price-quality balance with Inkayni is excellent.Show moreTrip date: January 2022
- Darson· January 27th, 2022The organization of the company is worthy of admiration, from the excellent and prepared guides to the rest of the team of muleteers and cooks. Our guide was Persy Huaman, from whom we learned many things, very professionally prepared, kind, very pleasant. Without him, our experience would not have been the same. This route is beautiful, to anyone who does not get tickets for the Inca Trail (as happened to us), I highly recommend this route and what better if you do it with Inkayni. Many congratulations for the service we received from this company.Show moreTrip date: January 2022
- Patrick· January 27th, 2022We made the Salkantay trekking with Inkayni, everything was very good, our guide Herlin explained to us everything from the beginning, he explained things about the food, the places, traditions, a very good guide! The food was very tasty and abundant, the logistics of the whole trek is excellent. Definitely an unforgettable experience that I will tell my friends and family.Show moreTrip date: January 2022
