Best day ever !! My wife and spent our honeymoon travelling around peru. We did the machu picchu and all those other tourist attractions which were very nice but we had the best day when we met adrian and he took us on a hike around ollantaytambo up to the inca gate. He picked us up from our airbnb and we walked and hiked for hours up to the gate, past some old inka ruins. Adrian was by far the nicest guy we have met on our whole trip. Super kind and also so passionate about his ancestory and the inka culture. He knew so much about the history and he definately had some amazing stories to tell. On our way up we didnt see another soul and once we reached the top we were greeted by a stunning panorama view. We have even seen some condors up top and they were huge. Thank you adrian for making this day our absolute best day on the honeymoon. Just absolutely perfect.

Amazing 4d / 3n Inca Quarry trek When planning a trip to Peru, the first thing that obviously comes to mind is Machu Picchu - and how to get there. We were a bit hesitant to go for the classic Inca Trail since we prefer activities that are a bit more off the beaten track. After some reading we stumbled upon the not so well known Inca Quarry trek: a 3 day walk through Inca landscape with the promise of meeting almost no other tourists (and a visit to Machu Picchu at day 4). The route and scenary were amazing: mountain tops with snow, agricultural fields, ruins of Inca temples and terraces, an old Inca quarry (amazing how they created and moved the building blocks to Ollantaytambo) and many more incredible places. My boyfriend and I were the only two people doing the trek at that moment(!). The only people we met along the way were locals. Camping all alone in this area was the most amazing thing I ever did, I strongly encourage you to go out at night and gaze at the milky way. I was a bit nervous as I had never done a multiple day trek, but it was very doable. The second day was the hardest, with the longest walk of the trek, but I managed very well and really enjoyed the walking, with plenty of time to rest in between. The best part of our trek was our guide, Roneld ('Rom'). We had an amazing time with him: he is very knowledgable about the history of the area and the current Peruvian culture. We spent the evenings playing cards and having a good laugh, which made the experience even more enjoyable. On the fourth and final day we also went to Machu Picchu together, where he again gave us an excellent tour. Our four days together with Rom have been the absolute highlight of our travel and I still consider it as some of the best days of my life. I can't wait to come back to this amazing, gorgeous country. If you prefer an off the beaten track experience with a great local guide I strongly recommend the Quarry trek!

Macchu Picchu and Rainbow Mountain Tour 2 days I had been traveling with my family in cuzco for 1 week, it was an awesome experience in this tour, all the road to macchu picchu, the people and the guides were amazing, the food was delicious, i will miss the food of cuzco. Furthermore, the best picture that i could take was in macchu picchu and the rainbow mountain. The next year, i will take another tour with Machula Expeditions. Very good experience in general.

Absolutely Outstanding Tour of the Sacred Valley with Ronald Hi: Serendipity! During our visit to Cusco, we were very fortunate to have Ronald recommended to us as a tour guide. My husband, brother-in-law, and I took a private day-long tour of the Sacred Valley with Ronald, and Josef was our great driver. Ronald was a fantastic tour guide. He is very passionate about the history of the sites, the history of the native cultures of Peru, and the history of Peru in general. Ronald shared his vision of Peru past and present in outstanding detail and wit in impeccable English. Both Ronald and Josef were prompt and incredibly polite and fun to spend the day with. When we return to Peru, our itinerary will definitely include another tour with Ronald. Thank you for a memorable tour of your gorgeous country!

Marvellous trek from Salkantay to Machu Picchu I have spent 4 amazing days in company of Machula Expeditions visiting dreamy locations from Salkantay mountain (4600 mt) to the legendary Machu Picchu. Mountains, lagoons, glazers, wild valleys, jungle paths, Inka ruins and much more. The adventure was super well organised. The guide was super friendly and took always the opportunity to brief you about the history of these lands, once inhabited by the glorious Inka civilisation. He and his team have always been supportive and careful to every necessity I had. The food was amazing, all freshly cooked with the amazing products and ingredients that Peru is offering. I feel in love with Peru even more after this experience.

Choquequirao to Machupicchu - Hike With The Real Local! If you are hiking anywhere in the Cusco area then you need to reach out Machula Expeditions! Ron is an absolutely awesome guide and amazing person. He is fluent in english/spanish/quechua and spends time explaining the beautiful ancient sites as well as his quechua culture. There are hoards of so called "tour companies" in Cusco constantly bombarding you to take your sols. I would steer clear of these. I came to find that they all operate without the proper permitting which means that they do not pay their workers a fair wage. I struggled to plan a more remote hike that was not overrun with people due to difficulty to access maps/trails in Peru (and I've done many miles of backpacking in the US). Until I was lucky enough to meet Ron. He is extremely well traveled in the area and has lots of options to fit your hiking style, your time available, and budget. I had an absolutely amazing time hiking through the sacred ruins. I cannot recommend this company enough. Sure I could hiked this trail alone. But, I would have been wet, hungry, confused, and somewhat miserable. Why do that? The hike itself will be challenging enough (plenty of elevation gain/loss). Spend your time and money wisely with a truly local small business! Cheers! See you on the trail!
