Our guides Alex and Eddison were both so great, patient, well educated and full of information about Peru and the Inca Trail. Llama Path was easy to work with, even with a group of 7, and well worth the money. Food was incredible and plenty of it through out the trek! They went at a great pace, the equipment was... more

We booked this tour in March for my 30th birthday celebrations in November using the tour company Llama Path. We payed 50% deposit in US $ for the trek with the agreement to pay the balance upon our arrival in Cusco. We arrived in Cusco 4 days before the trek to acclimatize (highly recommend) and when we went to pay... more

We booked a 2 day/1 night inca trail trek with Andina Travel (which is a FABULOUS travel agency by the way!) and had a great time. The hike was harder than we thought. I think that was mainly because there was a forest fire on part of the hike so we had to start a few miles different and that... more

4 days, 3 nights overland hike through the Andes Mountains along the traditional (cultural) Inca trail. The hike can be very strenuous in parts - mostly the steep ascents (followed by steep descents) on the 2nd & 3rd day. There are ancient city ruins all along the trail and it culminates with a breathtaking entrance into Machu Picchu, but the... more

For me, the highlight of my trip to Peru was definitely hiking the Inca Trail for four days to reach Machu Picchu. We walked through a variety of landscapes, from desert-like river valleys to elevated cloud forests; camped each night; reached a height of 14,000 feet at Huarmiwañusqa (Dead Woman's Pass); and passed by several different Incan ruins (some of... more

We were in Cusco from June 15 -25, 2009. A year in advance I planned for my sixtieth birthday to hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, arriving on June 21, 2009 for the winter solstice. This four day, three night hike was number #1 on my "bucket list". It was tough, but one of my greatest physical accomplishments. The... more

Starting with security as slick as border control we got our passports stamped with ' Caminos Inca' and crossed the bridge, to begin our 40 km trek. Armed with hiking boots and poles, the first day was spent trying to stay close to the rest of our group, amongst the 488 other hikers, horses, and locals dressed in traditional Incan... more

My husband and I recently did InkaNatura's 5-day Inca Trail hike (three nights camping, one night in a hotel in Aguas Caliente, fifth day going back to tour Machu Picchu). We're very happy that we chose the 5-day version at our age (50 +) but it's still an arduous hike. InkaNatura was wonderful and we would highly recommend the company.... more

My husband and I did the 4 day Inca Trail trek with Llama Path. I HIGHLY reccommend Llama Path for your guide on this trek (or on any trour of the area). We also did the Sacred Valley tour with them. I had hoped to use a different company in order to compare, but Llama Path was the only one... more
