    I just finished the Machu Picchu 2 days tour with these guys and it was a life changing experience. On the first day we took the Sacred Valley tour visiting some Inca sites Miguel our guide explained each of these places also had enough time to explore and take some photos, our group were only 6 people kind of nice size for this tour, and we end the tour in Ollantaytambo, from there we took our train to Aguas Calientes, there at the train station Vidal Expeditions representative were waiting for us and translate us to the hotel, it was near to the bus station and easily to explore the town. During the night we had dinner with our guide who explained to us the details for the next day and he also recommended buying some snacks due in Machu Picchu not many shops. The second day we woke early in order to reach Machu Picchu before the crowds arrived and it worked, we reached up to the first person at Machu Picchu and enjoyed the best sunrise that you can see ever. Our guide showed us the most outstanding spots, always explaining the purpose of each one and took it as the main entrance for Wayna Picchu mountain. It was a hard climb which took us about 1 hour but it was worth it with a great view from the summit. Finally we return down to the town and take our train to Ollantaytambo then bus to Cusco. It was very well organized and well explained about every detail. Thank you for these amazing days!
