Hiking a high altitude mountain
I recommend travelers to visit this wonderful place of Machu Picchu while they are young, can walk, and climb a high altitude mountain. The best place to visit. Highly recommended.

The Magic of Machu Picchu
We just came back for our trip. Everything was perfect and smooth since the moment we were picked up at our hotel until the drop off
When we arrived to Aguas Calientes, Miguel our tour guide Miguel was waiting for us. Miguel was amazing. He was very knowledgeable, super nice, patient and an excellent photographer.
He explained everything about the beautiful Machu Picchu and made us feel entertained. We really enjoyed and recommend this trip.

Day on Machu Picchu
Amazing trip. We were so lucky to have such a great day. Warm and clear. We did the Circuit 3, and frankly didn't notice a difference from the Circuit 2 expereince and Circuit 3 is considerably cheaper. The train ride to Aguas Calientes is breathtaking. Starting in The Sacred Valley, going through the "Cloud Forest" and finally into the jungle where Machu Picchu sits. We did the Vista Dome package. Highly recommend.

Fantastic Tour!
We loved this tour. Rudier was fantastic and couldn’t have been better. We learned so much from him, he knew all the spots for the best pics and he was wonderful with our boys. He made this once in a lifetime trip to Machu Picchu perfect. Don’t hesitate to book this tour

Amazing day!
We had the pleasure of having Eric guide us through Machu Picchu. He certainly knows his history of the site.
He was very generous in taking photos of us at every opportunity.
It was a fabulous day!

Really wonderful trip but was tiring because of 10 hours travel .
It was amazing tour. The guide Robert was very nice and friendly guy who took wonderful pictures.
Travelling time is too much from Cusco so if you guys manage it stay overnight at Machu Picchu.
It was long journey about 5 hours going and 5 hours coming back but a couple of hours at Machu Picchu was worth it.

awesome tour
Top notch tour. I was picked up at my hotel and driven to the train station. The driver game me my tickets and I boarded the train. another person walked me to the bus terminal. My guide was waiting for me at the end of the bus ride and we started our tour of the majestic Machu Picchu.

Great experience to see...
Great experience to see one of the wonders of the world...I did a same day trip from Cusco...it was a lot of traveling from shuttles to buses to trains...if I did it again, I would stay a night or 2 in Agua Calientes to not be so rushed...that said, the tour was well organized, all the staff were friendly and helpful...my tour guide (Francisco??) was great and Machu Picchu is a must see

Informative guide!
Gregory was a very informative guide who helped us get the most out of our time at Machu Picchu. He was insightful and educational and kept the time we had well paced.

Everything we wanted and more!
Jorge Elder was a great guide. He took his time with us, gave us a lot of great information, and overall history about Machu Picchu. He took us to a nice restaurant after the tour was over which we appreciated. We loved everything about the tour, the weather was perfect and the views were amazing. If you take this tour choose circuit C2, this allows you to see everything. The overall hike took about 2.5 hours.

Great and informative stay to Mach Picchu
The start of our trip was a bit complicated because the Company forgot that be booked a 2 circles private visit. The rest of the visit was perfect. Edgar our guide was great and very well informed on Inca history, political situation and living circumstances. We enjoyed the trip and the guidance to Machu Picchu very much and had a great time. The booking was absolutely worth its price.

Breathtaking
Machu Picchu is one of the most breathtaking places I’ve ever visited. The ancient Inca city sits high in the Andes surrounded by lush green mountains and clouds that make the whole place feel almost magical. Walking through the stone terraces, temples, and pathways gives you a real sense of the history and engineering brilliance of the Inca civilization. It’s a challenging trip to get there, but the views and the atmosphere make it absolutely worth it. A true bucket-list destination.
