    Great experience! It was the highest altitude I've ever been. The view was gorgeous and the tour guide was very helpful and friendly.

    As I was on my first solo trip to Peru, doing this excursion was at the top of my list! For all the accommodations and transportation the price is a great deal. Our tour guide (Super Wally) was responsive, helpful and overall wonderful. He communicated with us the whole time about our itinerary and the history of Rainbow mountain. He made sure no one was left behind on the trek and checked in numerous times to ensure I and others were okay. The views were breathtaking both literally and figuratively if you're not used to high altitudes but absolutely worth it!! I would recommend both Wally and Chullos Travel Peru if you plan on visiting Peru! 😁

    The trip was amazing and very well organised by Carina from Aremika travel! She has been on top of everything, tickets for bus,train and entrance to Machu Picchu and the guide! We had time to rest in between the transport and the guided tour up to Machu Picchu was wonderful! The guide was very helpful and told us many nice facts! Our child was super happy too! Highly recommended!

    A fast paced and well organised full day of activities with a fantastic guide. Jhonnatan was incredible at balancing both Spanish and English to provide a very engaging and informative tour through the main sights of the sacred valley. Lunch was very delicious too! Would thoroughly recommend for a full day out. Do remember to have some breakfast / bring snacks and extra cash for empanadas etc. in the morning! It’s an early start so you might get a little hungry before lunch.

    Great way to see the sights. The quads are in great condition, the instructor spoke good English, the route/drive was beautiful, and the day was just good fun. I would recommend it.

    Such a good time! I can't remember our tour guide's name, but he was great. He made sure we had some great photos taken of us, and the ATV ride was a lot of fun. The salt mines were stunning, and I'd highly recommend trying the peruvian strawberry beer that's sold at the small market right next to them.

    This tour was incredible!

    We ended up having tour guide Yacob all to ourselves; February is typically the rainy season, but we were fortunate with sunny weather both days. Yacob is very knowledgeable, a very effective communicator, fun and welcoming; he struck a great balance of sharing historical facts, how they tie to the culture, beliefs and citizens of today; he also shared a little of his personal experience. Yacob was also helpful in sharing recommendations of how to enhance our experience beyond the tour with local cuisine, cultural experiences, and norms. He went above and beyond to make our tour experience special, and is an accomplished photographer and videographer

    AB Expeditions is very well organized. It was nice not to have to worry about tickets or transportation, since all of that is prearranged. Even in the case of an unavoidable train delay due to a landslide, AB was able to accommodate our transportation on the other end.

    This two day tour is well paced. I appreciated having a full day in Machu Picchu as the highlight, and felt it allowed for the perfect amount of time in Sacred Valley, Maras, and Ollantaytambu.

    The views are incredible, the historical sites and knowledge are unmatched; overall, I wouldn’t have changed a thing about this experience!

    I had an amazing experience on the Camino Inca Corto to Machu Picchu! The 2-day, 1-night trek was perfectly organized, offering a mix of breathtaking landscapes, rich history, and a real sense of adventure. The guides were knowledgeable and friendly, making the journey even more enjoyable. Reaching Machu Picchu after this incredible hike was truly magical. Highly recommend this experience for anyone looking to explore the beauty and culture of Peru!

    This tour started out bumpy we had to reschedule for the following day because the driver did not pick up us the day of our tour. We were given and place and time but they never showed. Many of these tours change the time and meeting place several times and if you don’t have mobile WiFi, you won’t get the message. Travel Advisor should indicate that mobile WiFi is a requirement for all tours, otherwise, you will get irritated very quick.
    Now for the good stuff. The tour was great and so was our guide! Prepare yourself for a serious elevation shift as you are going up another 3000’ if you are coming from Cusco. As long as you pace yourself and take breaks, you will be fine. I’m in decent shape but I’m 56 and definitely needed the ATV. I found food in Peru to be mostly medicinally, but this tour fed you breakfast and late lunch and it was some of the best food we had!
    Highly recommend!

    Grade A tour guide! He took his time explaining everything thoroughly and we seem what usually takes two (2) days, in one (1) day. I will definitely recommend this tour to anyone coming for the first time, or for their second or third time! Had an amazing experience! Thank you!
