Fantastic experience and a truly personal service.Show moreAlpaca Expeditions commented on this reviewHello Richard We thank you so much for trekking with us!

- Marlena· February 13th, 2022Alpaca Expeditions provides the most incredible trekking service! My boyfriend and I had the most amazing journey! Our tour guide Felipe was always there for us whenever we needed him and before we even knew we needed him. Our chef Alfredo prepared the most delicious meals for everyone. What really made my boyfriend and I so happy was the fact that our chef Alfredo made me vegan and gluten-free meals breakfast, lunch and dinner, and it was scrumptious! That right there is the GREEN MACHINE. Felipe and Alfredo always had a smile on their face day in day out, it made us happy just to see them. They really cater to your needs and are there for you. Every campsite we stayed at had the most stunning landscapes. A big plus was the pop-up toilets, talk about comfort at the campsite. The tents were of excellent quality and were clean everyday. When you are ready to trek be sure to ask for Felipe as your tour guide and Alfredo as your chef, you will not be disappointed.Show moreTrip date: October 2021

- DCDIEGO· October 8th, 2021The trip was amazing, a great experience totally recommended. Miguel was our guide during the Inca Trail and between him, our incredible chef Segundino and all the Chaskis that supported the tour we have a memorable experience. The kindness and warmth of the team and the beautiful views make it a trip to repeat in the future. My wife wants to go back as soon as possible to repeat the great time we had. She can't wait to do another tour with Alpaca Expeditions. Ruben was also great during our Rainbow mountain tour helping in all that he could and without any rush so we could take all the pictures we wanted (and he was a great photographer as well).Show moreAlpaca Expeditions commented on this reviewHello Diego, thank you for taking your time to share your experience, At Alpaca Expeditions we work to create unique experiences. we invite you to be part of our journeys!

- AAdamSants· February 13th, 2021My Family did the Classic Inca Trail to Machu Picchu with Alpaca Expedition in September of 2019. The entire experience from start to finish was awesome and I can’t speak highly enough of the whole crew at Alpaca Expedition - the guide, the food, the organization, the gears ... Everything is top notch. They made the 4 day tour (even in rain) an awesome experience! The company has over 1/3 of the share of Inca Trail tourists for a reason...Show moreAlpaca Expeditions commented on this reviewDear Adam, We loved meeting your family and you. The trek was a challenge but you conquered it. Hope we can meet again for a new adventure. BestsTrip date: September 2019
- TBThomas· February 13th, 2021My wife and I had a fantastic time on our hike through Alpaca Expeditions. Everything about the planning process was smooth even when we had to reschedule last minute because of flight delays. While on the hike, the porters and our guide, Javier, were very accommodating, educational, and hospitable, especially when my wife had gotten sick half way through the hike. I would highly recommend Alpaca Expeditions to anyone planning on hiking the Inca Trail or other areas they also cover in Peru.Show moreAlpaca Expeditions commented on this reviewDear Thomas, Thanks for travelling with us. We loved meeting you and hiking along the Inca Trail. Hope we can meet again for a new adventure.Trip date: July 2019
- LALisa· February 13th, 2021My experience with Alpa Expeditions was phenomenal - I would urge anyone doing the Inca Trail to travel with them because after a lot of research, the steps that they have taken to ensure the safety and wellbeing of their porters is beyond what other companies often provide. Our tour guides, Javier and Toro, were so knowledgeable and willing to share so much more than the history of the Inca Trail. They shared personal stories, history of Peru, and made the experience just that much more valuable. Thank you to everyone on our trek making this a wonderful unforgettable experience!Show moreAlpaca Expeditions commented on this reviewDear Lisa, Thanks for your beautiful words. Hope we can meet again to keep on trekking along the Inca TrailTrip date: May 2019
- CCCaesar· February 13th, 2021We used Alpaca expeditions in January 2020 to do the classic Inca Trail, and it was nothing short of phenomenal. The guides were knowledgeable, helpful and kind. The pace set for the walking days were manageable, and the food was the best we had in South America. Being gluten free, I was provided full meals and snacks at every opportunity, including gluten free cookies at tea time and a (freshly baked) gluten free cake on the last day. Would highly recommend them to anyone looking to do the Inca Trail.Show moreAlpaca Expeditions commented on this reviewDear Caesar, Thanks for travelling with us. Each day was an adventure and we were very happy travelling with you. Hope we can conquer the mountains again.Trip date: January 2020

Andy
Asked on January 8th, 2025Are there any tours with children of a similar age?
- Alpaca ExpeditionsOperator•Written January 2025
Most tours in Cusco and to Machu Picchu combine day trips with transportation, visiting popular tourist attractions such as the Cusco city tour, Sacred Valley, Rainbow Mountain hike, as well as longer treks like the Classic Inca Trail, Salkantay Trek, or the Short Inca Trail, which includes a guided tour of Machu Picchu on the last day. All of these Inca sites, including Machu Picchu itself, are incredible places that both children and adults enjoy.

Asked on January 22nd, 2024I would like more information on the height, my fortnight versus seven options, Best month to do the tour etc. please let me know.
- Alpaca ExpeditionsOperator•Written January 2024
Regarding your questions: Cusco's elevation is 3300m / 11,300ft. Dry season is characterized by blue skies and sunny conditions. This season spans from April to October and is considered to be the best season for hiking in the Cusco region. The Inca Trail closes for maintenance in February each year. We have availability for the Inca Trail Experience 8D/ 7N (Group Service) starting on May 23th, 2024.

Jacqueline
Asked on September 12th, 2023I am curious if you could answer two questions: we have two people who are 66 in our group and I see the age range going to 65. Will that be okay? We are interested in the 8D/7N Inca Trail to Machu Picchu by Alpaca Expeditions. Second question, what is the cancellation policy or COVID/Sickness policy?
- Alpaca ExpeditionsOperator•Written September 2023
Currently, there is no limit age for people doing the Inca Trail. In our experience, we had people even 75 years old. Once we will purchase your permit for the Inca Trail these are non-refundable and non-transferable, so in case of cancelation we can apply for a partial refund minus $200 per person. There is no need to pass a COVID test to go on this trek and also to enter the country.
