11/10 Experience! Elvis is the man!

Raymond_T, Mar 2026

From the moment I booked this tour to the day we landed, Elvis communicated with me every step of the way —- getting into the details, answered all of my questions, and made sure we knew what to expect. He’s patient, organized, responsive, and it’s apparent that he cares deeply about his work. We wanted to have a despacho ceremony the day before this tour and Elvis didn’t hesitate to set that up for us and ensured that the shamans were legit. He even took us around Cusco despite being busy. Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu were both absolutely stunning; we were able to do Circuit 2 (the best circuit) and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The guides he assigned us were knowledgeable and easygoing. We learned so much! Elvis and his team also recommended great restaurants and we enjoyed delicious meals in Cusco. Lastly, we wanted to go to Rainbow Mountain on our last day in Cusco, and once again, Elvis organized everything seamlessly with a guide. Our overall experience was an 11/10! It was the perfect trip!
