Just finished 4 day trek on Inca Trail. We were led by the legendary Daniel and Yovani. They were so encouraging and energetic when it was tough. The chef Beltran made us delicious meals and head porter Ruben led a team of Porters that are truly outstanding. Don’t doubt the trail and what it entails to complete but know the team at TreXperince will help you reach your goal!

If you want to have the most rewarding four days, this is the experience! This was the most physically taxing hike I have done but the risk was worth the reward! The views, friendships, food and challenge were amazing! Our guide, Avi was passionate about preserving the history of his people and teaching us about the Incan culture, engineering practices and food! Alex and Wilbur were great at assisting him and us! Julio, the chef created all food with love! You won’t regret booking this adventure!
Dear Sarah M, Thank you for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled that Avi, Alex, Wilbur, and Julio made your 4-Day Inca Quarry Trail Trek to Machu Picchu so rewarding, challenging, and memorable. Your kind words about the food, views, and cultural insights mean a lot to us. We hope to welcome you back for another amazing adventure soon! Yosselyn TreXperience
This was one of the most amazing adventures I have ever had, significantly enhanced by Roger and Yovany who were our guides for the four day trek not forgetting to mention chef Daniel and the team of Porters who supported us every step of the way. There is some pretty serious trekking involved with this trip with significant ups and downs and outstandingly beautiful mountainous countryside with amazing views and Inca ruins along the way finishing up in the ancient city of Machu Picchu. Myself and my friend Kate also did the additional climb up Waynapicchu giving us spectacular views of the Machu Picchu site. This is another steep climb but not as impossible as it first looks. We ended the trip with dinner in a local restaurant and probably the most entertaining train journey I’ve ever had. Thanks again to Roger and Yovany for an amazing time and your exceptional knowledge of the Inka Trail and Machu Picchu site
Dear Andrew M, Thank you so much for your kind review. We are very happy to know that your Inca Quarry Trail was challenging but truly worth the effort. Roger, Yovany, Chef Daniel, and the porter team will be grateful for your words. It means a lot to know that their support, knowledge, and care helped make this adventure so special from the mountains to Machu Picchu. TreXperience

Absolutely unforgettable trek and a must do if wanting to hike in Peru. Our guide, Nilton was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and taught us so much about the local history, culture and geology/geography of the area. Leonardo, our chef prepared outstanding hot, fresh, nutritious, hearty meals showcasing many local Peruvian dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner each day, Our porters and horse guides ensured that we arrived every day to a fully set up camp each evening, as well as preparing snacks and teas for us to have at rest stops. Overall, it was an incredible experience with staggering views of the Andes and an incredibly accommodating team to support us, would recommend to anyone and everyone wanting a challenging but rewarding hiking experience in Peru.

Speechless! Absolutely amazing experience provided by Nilton and Leonardo. An authentic Peruvian adventure that resulted in each day exceeding the previous. The cultural enrichment, traditional foods, hiking paths and amazing scenery was something we were constantly pinching ourselves over. In true Peruvian style, we felt a deep connection to the land/nature and its people. Regardless of the time of year, I would highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Nilton and Leonardo and the support crew involved!
