          I enjoy my trip
          Really I enjoyed this other trek to Machu Picchu. There were amazing waterfalls and inca sites plus it is much less crowded than Inca trail. Highly recommend!

          Honestly great trip
          I honestly say that for the adventurous people, this is the one stop shopping type of trip. Everything right from zip lining to rafting was happening all around. It made a profound memory when on the last day at Machu Picchu I was thoroughly tired.

          Truly beautiful trip
          This Salkantay Trek is truly beautiful. This is a much less crowded trail than the Inca trail but the sights one gets to see are very beautiful. 5 days walking and finally get to Machu Picchu was the best reward!

          less money great trip
          If you want a less tourists oriented, more soft adventure journey to the famous Inca site Machu Picchu then Lares Trek is for you. Everything was arranged by Bamba, and we simply had the best of time.

          Mind blowing adventure
          The Jungle Adventure was just mind blowing. We bicycled, boated, walked, and even did what was called ziplining. Machu Picchu was the icing on the cake to an amazing adventure packed holiday!!!

          Lovely trip
          The Lares Trek was a lovely trip that is not very touristy. It was a much appreciated scenery and most of the time, it seemed that we had the trail to ourselves. The carried attitudes of the guides were professional and sensitive.

          perfect !
          Perfect for backpackers! Not only we explored both cities but we also got to see nature in Peru and Bolivia. The guides were very friendly and incredibly informative on aspects of culture of the regional areas.

          unforgettable trip
          This tour of the main attraction through Peru and Bolivia in 14 days really could only be described as unforgettable. I got to know so many people on the way, and the places that are of interest were amazing as well.

          Safety trip
          A day full of adrenaline! It was really fun when we raft he river and the zipline was also the best thing we’ve done on that day. The guides were professional, and particularly concerned with safety issues.

          Wonderful trip
          The only word that I have for this trek is strenuous but I want to do it again! This made it even more special that we reached Machu Picchu after four days of hiking. Bamba had made all the arrangements as if they were planned to the finest details.

          best trip
          It was really amazing doing the 4-day Inca Trail Trek. The local guides were informative and anything that needed to be organized was completed. Machu Picchu was the final incentive or the biggest attraction!!!

          unforgettable trip thanks bamba!
          We have had an unforgettable trek with the help of Bamba Travel Inca Trail to Salkantay! Cesar and Junior were great guides, because they paid attention to everyone, to make sure everyone feels good during the hike. The feeling all in all the kind of view was tremendous and there could be no second thoughts into that. Bamba is the way to go!

          Lovely couple trip
          Me and my husband spent the most amazing honeymoon trek with Bamba Travel. The two attendants that were assigned to attending to us during the trip, which were Francisco and Ruth, were extremely helpful, containing lots of important information, and very hospitable. Them and the whole team have helped us to make the atmosphere special and we felt protected and cared for. Special thanks to Bamba Travel; they made our special event even more special!

          Unforgettable trip with Bamba!
          The Salkantay Trek choosing as the 5-day Inca Trail with Bamba Travel is incredible! We had a fantastic guide, Francisco who described a lot of historical features and ensured that was an excellent experience. It was amazing, the best part being, it was planned so well. Bamba Travel was phenomenal and overachieving, it was simply amazing.

        Our 2D/1N was hastily reorganised at the last minute due to a rock fall on the Inca Trail. Bamba Experience substituted a trek in the Sacred Valley with tour guide, Juan followed by a visit to Machu Picchu the next day with tour guide, Willy. What an experience. Willy insisted we take the first bus up to the site and then hike towards the SunGate to capture the first sunlight on Machu Picchu. Jimmy then took us on an extended tour of the ancient site sharing his extensive knowledge, his indigenous heritage and his sense of humour. Well done, Willy! Thank you.

        This trip went by van, train and bus through beautiful nature. Everything was on time and everything went as planned. We had a nice balance where we got info when we needed it but still freedom to be by ourselves.
        Machu Picchu itselves was made even more interresting by our exellent guide Wilbur.

        Without doubt the best travel experience I have ever had (regular traveler) Many issues happened. Ended up way behind times for connections. An incredible guide (Thanks Nico) who through many complications found immediate remedies to allow us to continue through. Next day missed our transit and Bamba again sent someone to pick us up to catch up (without us contacting them) so we had an incredible experience up Machu Pichu the next day. Unbelievable service when most tours are if your not there it's not there problem and don't care. Most highly reccomended company I have ever had the pleasure to travel with

        We booked the Sacred Valley/Machu Picchu and Rainbow Mountain trips with Bamba and were impressed by their quick and reliable communication via WhatsApp and adaptability. We experienced a strike that impacted one of our trips, but Bamba was able to switch our reservation for another day with no cost added. We met lots of other independent travelers who were using Bamba, too, so it was nice to have a community. Great and knowledgeable tours! Would recommend to friends
