Birthday Bucket List Apex Adventure

Mike_I, Oct 2023

Difficult to choose merely a few. The textile shop on the way was extraordinary. The demonstration of the weaving and dyeing process was fascinating. On the day, the mountain top was eerie, mystical, ethereal. Fantasy film perfect as the clouds drifted away revealing the ancient ruins. Egad. Guide Elizabeth was so thoughtful in adjusting our departure for a later time to give me time to rest in the morning. She knew the overcast would obscure the view, and so, chose a better schedule. Sweet, funny, smart, patient, solicitous of this old poop dragging his sorry corpus up the mountain. Observant! pointing out the hidden wildlife I missed. Sly confederate in shooting a video of my tai chi practice to show class at home. Gently encouraged me to get pictures of me that I was reluctant to make, but now I am thrilled to have. Met many other travellers along the way. We compared notes, suggested new destinations to each other. I celebrated my 70th birthday literally at the top of the world. that Sunday. Four other people in my train carriage back to Ollentaytambo had the same cumpleaños as mine! What a celebration! I can't post the video, can't get releases from everyone, and we SAG members are on strike. A waiter at a restaurant was so delighted to learn I was a Hoosier (he had visited Indianapolis) he took his rest break time to give me lessons in Quechua! Kevin's favorite phrase -- done in authentic Schwartzenegger -- Kutmusaa! (I'll be back). If you decide to go to Old Mountain (Machu Picchu), do it NOW.

Breathtaking & Majestic place!

Guided tour of Machu Picchu

Thomas_L, Nov 2019

Tour operator was well organised, provided safe and punctual drivers, detailed briefing for each stage of the trip, and a clean, smart hotel. All booking and options were explained clearly and the host was available on call for any further questions. The tour guide, Vicki, was marvellous. Very personable and engaging, knowledgable and stayed with us far longer than expected in order to ensure we saw all the areas of the site.

2 Day Private Machu Picchu Tour

Fantastic trip. Everything went exactly as scheduled. Our guide, Eugenia, was great. The hotel we stayed at was unbelievably wonderful.It's worth a trip back to Peru just to stay there. Machu Picchu was incredible.

Five-Star Tour of Machu Picchu

We had a wonderful, informative, gorgeous, and every other superlative I can use, private guided tour of Machu Picchu. Our guide Edson, from Valencia Travel Cusco was truly a cut above all other guides. Being a native Quechua from Cusco, he gave us a tour from the heart and the mind.

Kate, Nov 2017

This was a well organised tour and we would thoroughly recommend it. Both the pick up and transfer services in Cusco and the Machu Picchu guide were outstanding. A great way to see Machu Picchu if you are short on time and want the highlights.

Joe L, Feb 2017

Exceptional tour. The staff went above and beyond to ensure that everything went well. I could not imagine a better experience. I don't normally write reviews, but this tour demands a review because the service that came with it exceeded that of any tour that I have ever gone on. I highly advise you to book this tour if you are looking at going.

Guide was sweet, knowledgeable, and very friendly. Hotel was busy but great. And Los Andes restaurant in Aguas Calientes was great. The shopping and vendors was a little much. We were overwhelmed. Train was hot but everything was included which I didn't expect. I was so pleased.all in all.
