          Fantastic Inca trek
          I cannot say enough about Huaynas Expeditions and our guide, Juan. The organization was absolutely brilliant. They were extremely thorough, patient, and professional. I couldn't have asked for more. They were always available to answer any questions or concerns we had; they kept us well-fed and safe, and they motivated us to continue to push ourselves to the next level. Juan has an extensive knowledge of all things of Inca history, and he can answer any questions you may have about the ruins or the history behind them. We were a group of 6 hikers with mixed abilities and we all completed the trail safely. If you are considering a trek, choose Huaynas Expeditions.

          Breathtaking experience
          I took along with my family the five days trekking to Choquiquerao with Huaynas Expeditions. This was an amazing experience that I'm glad I could share with my loved ones. I highly recommend the experience: it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be exposed to incredible views of the surrounding mountain ranges, hard but rewarding walk led by a great Huaynas Expeditions team. Choquiquerao ruins are not comparable to Machu Picchu but still the journey is unforgettable. One rediscovers the pleasure of discovery trips. Huaynas Expeditions did a phenomenal job ensuring every detail was taken care of, and we can't wait to go back again!

          Nice tour!
          Pick up was on time. Clean van, professional guide, Miguel. Driver also was driving safe and nice. Lunch included in tour was way above my expectation, very good. Also can you use this tour to see Sacred Valley and you can be dropped in Ollantaytambo. I recommend!

          Great adventure
          Our group really enjoyed the tour by Huaynas Expeditions! The hiking was a bit tough, but some of us chose to take a horse (80 sol) and they say that the money was worth it. The view all the way up at the lake is totally worth everything! It was so beautiful. The tour guide was enthusiastic and skillful, taking care of us all, and though the drive way was tough the driver also drived skillfully and carefully. I would really recommend it to others too!

          It was worth it!
          Everything from start to finish was great! Our guide, Freddy and driver Lucio were awesome. They made sure everything went as scheduled and we had 0 issues! Freddy was super chill and hilarious! The breakfast and lunch is good and was a great start and finish to the day. We ended up getting horses (80 soles) because the hike is no joke! It’s about 20% flat, 80% incline. Overall, it was worth it once you get to the lake! I’d recommend booking here if you are interested in going!

          A great trip excellent service, and very friendly staff
          Huaynas Expeditions, what a wonderful trip we had in Peru! We could not have done it without the dedication of the guide Juan, all our plans for Machu Picchu went without any problem but what made our trip an unforgettable experience was his attention and kindness. This agency makes you feel like you are planning your trip with fully tailored to your needs and making sure that you get what you are looking for. Thank you so much!!

          A short adventure to Palccoyo
          The place is truly sublime. Palccoyo the other rainbow mountain has nothing to envy to Vinicunca! The mountain itself is perhaps a little less spectacular, but the surrounding site is one o the most beautiful creations of nature that I have ever seen in my life. The road is a little winding and turbulent but it is well worth it. The hike itself to reach the summit is splendid, in the colorful mountains, and not too difficult. Would recommend it to my friends!

          Fantastic trip!!
          This trip was an excellent experience, from planning and booking it - Juve was so accommodating in our change of plans, to the trip itself. We do not speak Spanish and we had bilingual guides that were always there for us and I noticed that they were in contact with each other at all times. Everything was organized perfectly, the meals included were at amazing restaurants, and the trip itself was an experience of a lifetime. And I fell in love with the people of Peru! Thank you!

          Outstanding Expeditions!
          Top-notch service with Huaynas Expeditions! We did the three-day trek on the Huchuy Qosqo Trail. Our great Guides - Juan & Freddy took great care of us. The porters were very friendly and worked incredibly hard. And the Chef provided incredible food! Really - what they could prepare on the trail was amazing. Coffee or tea in your tent to start your day, clean and comfortable tents and equipment, great history lessons at each site, and a smooth running and well-organized team made for a fantastic 3 days on the trail!

          2 Day Inca trail trek (May 2022)
          We did the 2-day Inca trail with Huaynas Expeditions. This was the best trip on the entire Peru trip. A group of 6 walked a hiking trail that first went up a tall mountain and then through slightly uphill clifftops to cover a total of 3 mountains. Then, the trail went downhill to the base of Machu Picchu. This trail itself is not an easy one. But, if you are younger and fitter, you can do the more intensive 4-day one. Our guides Juan and Freddy were fantastic! They were always with us throughout the trip making sure we were fine. Definitely was worth it! But please be aware that this trail is not an easy trip, especially if you are not in the best of health, but Huaynas Expeditions guide will help you along the way!

        My husband and I were stuck in Lima for an extra day and a half due to flights being canceled, Juve arranged a private tour. Our flight was delayed three more hours- the tour guide stayed!!!! We only had one day in Cusco due to the fight mess and I was going to be so sad if we didn’t see rainbow mountain. Juve sent Pole and Javier to help us on this adventure. They were knowledge, funny, passionate and extremely understanding. My husband and I would recommended this tour to anyone. Rainbow mountain is amazing but pick your tour guides here it will be an intimidate and amazing experience plus the food was amazing!!!!!
