Ended up being ok

Backe_T, Nov 2023

The trip coordinator was helpful and knowledgeable. The best part was they sent me a message right after I booked the tour and set up a video conference to go over everything within an hour of booking on Viator. There's actually no guide to show you around but they just purchase all the tickets on your behalf. There was supposed to be someone to pick me up from the train station but they didn't show up. This might be acceptable for the locals as it's a really safe and small town but for a foreign tourist who has never been there, it could be quite daunting. I ended finding the Ministry myself to buy the entrance ticket. The dinner arrangements was also very confusing, the person who was supposed to show up never did but the employee of another business partner showed up instead and was late. This could be very intimidating when you someone you don't know or expect just tells you to come with them at night. Also, his English was not understandable and didn't explain how the dinner worked or what we can order. The best part of the "tour" is that you have someone to message 24/7 for any questions you have. Otherwise, it's probably cheaper to book your own train and entrance tickets.

Best Machu Picchu experience

Let’s start with Carlos and Nixon, from Mega. They are amazing, got in contact with us before our trip and we ended up booking all of our tours with them. We loved them! The train ride is so enjoyable, breathtaking landscape. Jorge our tour guide in Machu Picchu was the absolutely best, he was so knowledgeable and help us amazing pictures. :-) the whole experience is a billion stars ⭐️. The only negative was the hostel in Aguas Calientes (which was pase of the tour), we could hear everything and were not able to rest well. Other than that, everything was perfect!
