Wonderful trip, beautiful nature. The trek is at times challenging, even for experience mountain goers. The elevation effected us differently (we were 7 persons from Australia, Austria and Norway, age group around 25 - 35). The first day was for me the hardest (maybe because of the elevation). Remember to pack for different climates (from sub-zero temperatures at night in the mountains, to hot climate in the jungle). And bring mosquito repellent. Cudos to our guide, Jhimmy; he's the best. Very attentive to everyone's needs, gave us a lot of interesting insight into the history and culture of Peru and the Inka culture, and is generally a very warm and funny guy. Made sure we kept together during the trek, and gave lots of good hiking tips. Also a big thanks to the cook, Jesus, who made really tasty local multi-course meals for us, with minimal equipment. And of course, thanks to everyone else who was involved in helping, like the horsemen and so on. Highly recommend!

Was a really great experience traveling with this tour company. Jimmy, was a super pleasant, knowledgable and passionate guide, and Jesus was if possible an even better cook. The meals were really a highlight of the trek. We had to wake up early every day and the tour is probably on the more expensive side, but if these things are alright with you I hoghly recommend this travel agency for the salkantay trail trek.

Me and two friends did this tour together, and I have nothing but good things to say. Jhimmy, the main guy is a really funny, easy, and honest guy. I have learned more about Peru and the Inkas from him than I ever imagined. Also. The food, made buy the chef Jesus, is amazing. Thank you Jesus! The accomodation is really good, but bring earplugs (there is a lot of roosters who like to make noize from 3 am im camp 3 and 4. this obviously applies to all tours, not only this one). The nature is fantastic. Also, with this tour, the first camp is quite a lot higher than many other tours. This makes the hiking the second day much easier. And first camp is much less crowded. In other words. Will definitely reccomend this tour!

We had Jhon as our tour guide and we had an amazing tour. He knew everything about Inca culture and the local flora and fauna (we tasted around 5 different types of fruits as we hiked). The meals were great, and always included a starter, a main dish and dessert. Breakfasts were also very good and provided the fuel needed for all the activities one does throughout the days. Rafting and Zip lines were awesome too. We felt super safe, the guides were very experienced. Would definitely recommend taking this tour with Jhon!

It was an amazing experience from start to finish! We were lucky enough to have Jhony as our own private guide who made our trip very memorable! He’s very knowledgeable and shared so much about the history, his culture and stories of his trips. Getting to know him was a pleasure and a highlight for us. The activities are fun, the food is fresh and delicious, the trail is breathtaking and the people are so happy, friendly and genially want you to enjoy their culture and have a great time! We’ve always wanted to experience the Inca Trail and see Machu Picchu and if we had just done it our self we would have missed out all the little towns, the food and the people! If you want to switch off from the outside world and reset while being active - we’d 100% recommend. Trip of a lifetime.

Eduardo and Conde travel made my 4 day jungle hike an excellent experience. I planned to do this trip as I wanted to do more activities than just walking on the way to Machu Picchu. On day one I found out it would just be a private tour as no one else was booked on the same day as me with Conde. I thought this was good as it meant we could walk at my pace but bad because it’s good to socialise with other guests. Fortunately for me the activities were combined with other tours/groups so I ended up doing each of the activities with a different group. The cycling was one of the funnest things I’ve ever done starting over 4000m down the 1500m and it definitely gets warmer heading into the jungle. Then the ecohostal on night one was amazing and one thing I have to say with Conde travel was that the food in all of the places is fantastic. The accommodation is also very good. This is what for me differentiates Conde from the other tours as you spend somewhere between £50-100 more than other tours for the 4 days but you stay in hotels instead of hostels and every meal is 3 courses with too much food rather than not enough. The white water rafting was fun and you get an opportunity to cliff dive from around 4m which is not compulsory but i found it enjoyable and added to the experience of the day. The next day we walked through the jungle and be prepared TAKE REPELLENT. The mosquitoes are not fun. The hot springs are enjoyable but when I went there was only one of the several pools open so it was a bit busier than I’d expected. Again the food was fantastic in Santa teresa for dinner and breakfast. I enjoyed some socialising with other groups after hours as you get approx 7:30pm onwards to enjoy yourself or with others every night. The next day was the zip lining which was very fun and a great experience. Then the walk to Machu Picchu pueblo - Aguascalientes. The town is a bit more expensive and touristy as you’d expect. Onto Machu Picchu and it was amazing Conde travel had got me the earliest time possible 6am and by paying the extra for the bus up I was basically the first person into the park and this is where Eduardo shone. He had explained lots on the journey to Machu Picchu but his knowledge and happiness to answer all the questions I had was fantastic. I enjoyed all the moments at Machu Picchu. I had paid extra for huanyu picchu and for me it was worth it. This gave me an extra ticket to Machu Picchu as well so it allowed me to leave go to the toilet and have some food before going back into the park using a different route so I could see more and then to climb huanyu picchu. After this Eduardo also let me know I could use a shower for 10 soles in the hotel we had been in that night which allowed me to feel much fresher for the train and bus back to Cusco. In short 5* out of 5 I’m not sure there’s much that could have been improved with this tour and it’s been the highlight of my trip. Thanks again

After an interesting start with 3 name changes of guide, and a change from tents to refugios, it was a great trip. Abel our guide was great, and a shout out to Flor Grande, who did a great job behind the scenes.The track and Chocquequirao were excellent and well worth the hard trecking. Could be a 5 day trip, taking some of the pressure off the ascents which were tough.

I had really amazing experience. I enjoyed the whole trip. My tour guide Timmy was really experienced and made my trip even better.

Absolutely unreal!! Noé our guide was an absolute legend. Knew how to keep the flow going n provide the laughs. He knew his history n information about all our surroundings, even all the top secret knowledge!! Could not recommend Noé more!!

90% of the trip was absolutely incredible! The rafting was an unexpected highlight, the biking was beautiful, and hiking was as well. The zip lining was fun, but most of the activity involved standing in line. My biggest complaint would be on the last day, the tour company booked me and my boyfriends Machu Picchu hike ticket and our train ticket way to close together. We recognized this as soon as we reviewed our ticket times, and we brought up the concern immediately. The tour company assured us that it would be fine, we would make it! And while we didn’t make our train time, we were not able to complete our hike, and we had to rush with all of our gear to do so. I wish the tour company would’ve been more realistic with the timelines they set us. For that reason I had to knock off a star. The food and accommodations were amazing. It was such a nice experience where everyday had some amazing variety. The food was a little repetitive in its offerings, but everything tasted great! You will be tired, stinky and it will be a lot of adventure in a short amount of time, but it was totally worth it! I highly recommend! Just so you are aware, you are carrying your own bags for the 1.5 days of hiking! No sherpas here so pack light!

Amazing trip! Words can’t describe how wonderful this was. The food and service was excellent, they had plenty of people caring for us. Our guide Jose was terrific, he was very knowledgeable on the Camino and the culture. Most of all he was so excited to share his culture with us. He truly loved his job. It was very rewarding to learn about Peru and the Incas with such wonderful team.

Hiking the Inca Trail with Conde Travel and our tour guide Jose was a wonderful experience. We had a much smaller group of three couples compared to most other companies on the trail, which allowed us to set our own pace and felt more like a private tour. Jose was such a supportive and friendly guide, our entire group loved hiking and learning with him. We miss him already! The views are incredible, but the people made the experience so much better. The porters and chef were fantastic and all the food was delicious. They even managed to find the ingredients to make a cake after finding out my birthday was at the end of the hike while already two days into the trail. Highly recommend Conde Travel for a more personalized experience hiking the Inca Trail!

I highly recommend that you select conde travel if you choose to hike the Incan trail. They prioritize smaller groups which made the group bond a lot more and it was easier for everyone for hike at their own pace. Some other companies have over 15 people, which seems cumbersome and less intimate. Jose was a great guide. He was knowledgeable about the history, the trail, and managed a fun trek. The porter team was also top notch. The food was great and copious. Honestly, I don’t have any negative things to say.

I’m a beginner hiker and new to this kind of activity so I didn’t know what to expect, on our arrival Jose was extremely open, helpful, and informative. He covered every imaginable corner you could and will face on the activity and gave us tips needed to fully enjoy every second of it. During the hike with amazing views he would set times for us to take our instagram worthy photos and would even be our cameraman and would make sure we liked the photos. He even organized a birthday cake surprise for one of our friends on the hike whose birthday landed on the last day. If your looking to checkout any kind of activity in Peru like Machu Picchu or rainbow mountain and anything around it I recommend asking for Jose to truly enjoy everything you paid for!

Had an excellent time. Really well organised trip, the activities en route were very enjoyable and the accommodation was all very good. Highlight was definitely our tour guide “big daddy”, he was great fun and very helpful. If you can book with him definitely would recommend. We did the jungle trail Machu pichu, and would highly reccomend.
