Machu Pichu visit

The tour was amazing. Haku Travels did a good job once the tour day arrived. However before that they were very poorly coordinated with multiple guides messaging and asking for the information. Also they don’t respond with clarity unless you push them. Perhaps it’s a language issue but overall the experience went well

Bad experience in buying tickets for Machu Picchu

Very harrowing experience. Promised the clears paid for delivery were not delivered by the TripAdvisor agent The agent ‘Elmer’ advised it was too late for tickets to be delivered - which resulted in running to market square with our tour guide to purchase the tickets from the ticket office. Awaiting refund from trip advisor

Incredible family tour of Machu Picchu

Our guide, William, was incredible. He had such energy and passion for the history of Machu Picchu and the Inka culture. He provided facts about the culture, geography, geology, animals… everything! Our meeting time was 5:00am and he was there exactly on time. We communicated some in Spanish but his english is also excellent. We were so lucky to have William guide our tour.

Very bad information gave a lot of stress.

Bad experience with Haku travel. We had booked a visit to Machu Picchu including guide for a lot of money ($440). We would hear 24 hours in advance what time we would be picked up at our hotel and by whom. We didn't hear anything even 16 hours before, after regular texting we got the same message every time: "we mail the information to you", "we have already e-mailed it twice" But we got nothing and spoke to the owner about his lies, which made him angry 1Only 2 hours before we went to sleep we got a time and a name! The guide was too early the next morning (5.50 am instead of 6.05 am), so we were not ready. also the tickets for the bus and MachuPicchu were mailed separately and were hard to find. In short, a lot of stress for what should have been the highlight of our holiday. MachuPicchu itself is a magical place, so that made up for a lot. The guide William gave a lot of information, but he would email me a short answer to a question, he never did, despite multiple requests and despite the fact that we had still given him a large personal tip.

Circuit 2 with Manuel

Our guide Manuel was terrific and informative. Gave us great views and pics! We paid a little more than we would have liked for the tour but that’s because we wanted circuit 2. We booked 2 months in advance and nothing was available by any other method. Circuit 2 sells out many months in advance. Was well worth it in the end. Would def recommend to anyone.

Machu picchu

We had a WONDERFUL time and largely due to William, he’s a insanely charismatic guy and really make you feel like a part of his family just guiding you around his home. He doesn’t need to pull out a guide at any point he just simply knows the method around the whole machu picchu. We took circuit 3B but i truly know he knows every other circuit by the way he describes each detail. ABSOLUTE LEGEND.
