Our Inca Trail hike to Machu Picchu was amazing. Over the 7 days our guide Eber showed us around Cusco, Ollantaytambo, the Inca Trail hike and then Machu Picchu, he was nothing short of amazing. He had incredible knowledge of the culture, the archaeology, history and biology of the area, the people and the environment. On the trail he was patient and supportive and always made sure we had everything we needed, knew exactly what was going on and his ability to converse in several languages made the journey very easy and thoroughly enjoyable. He has a warm sense of humour and was always kind. We could not recommend him more highly. Our chef William was also outstanding. We were constantly stunned by the absolutely delicious and amazing meals he provided. We had 2 course breakfasts, 4 course lunches and 3 course dinners and snacks for the trail. The food would do a restaurant proud and we appreciate the hard work, forethought and effort he put into providing our meals. Again we could not recommend him more highly. Our team of 6 porters worked hard to ensure that things ran smoothly for us. Nothing was a problem and their teamwork made the camp experience seamless and extremely comfortable. We admired how hard these men work to make our journey special and we were so impressed. On another level we noted porters of other companies often had loads that were far in excess of the regulation 30kg. We valued that World Expeditions have policies and procedures that ensure the welfare of these men who are working under what are very physical conditions. We could clearly see that our porters were carrying legal weights and not required to carry heavy loads. The wonderful staff and responsible welfare policies that the company adheres to definitely encourage us to travel with World Expeditions again and recommend the company to our friends.
The trip to Peru was amazing! We had the best time exploring and hiking the Inca trail. Our guides were friendly, very well knowledgeable with a special mention to Rudi and Renato. You trek the trail with porters and a chef who look after you really well. The food on the trail was top notch restaurant standard and it was nice to try local dishes. Very safe trip and everyone will make you feel welcome!
INCA TRAIL, TITICACA & NAZCA An absolutely fabntastic holiday, well planned and our guide just made this so enjoyable. I've never been on a holiday where I got to see so much - I enjoyed every minute of it and would recommend it to anyone who wishes to go and explore Peru.
