  • Inca Trail to Machu Picchu + Rainbow Mountain 8 days reviewer 1
    · January 13th, 2025
    An extremely well organised tour. Our guide Monica was an amazing guide. Monica went out of her way to make the trip safe, enjoyable and comfortable. Our chef Vidal made an amazing variety and quality of meals each day. Our chief porter Juan did a great job organising the porters. Katy in the office was good to deal with in the lead up to the hike. I highly recommend the 4 day Inka trail hike. We had 14 porters carrying 20kg each for the 6 paid customers and the attention to detail was awesome. The Inka ruins we saw along the way and MachuPicchu was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

    Excellent tour, with all guides and coworkers superb. Just a little confusion over weight allowances, taxi booking & 1 trip had to be rebooked. Overall Trexperience did their best & I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.
