5.00Just got back from the Machu Picchu tour with Arturo and it was an experience of a lifetime which was very well conducted and organised. We started with an early morning pickup from the hotel to the train station on Ollantaytambo and then to Aguas Calientes and then by bus to Machu Picchu where we had a very detailed tour of the citadel. We never felt rushed, we had plenty of time after the tour to soak in the views and see the beauty of the Incan masterpiece. We highly recommend the tour if you are short of time in Peru and want to get the most in a day.

5.00I am verymuch thrilled to share my experience on visiting Machu Picchu on a full day trip from Cusco with Inka Explorer Viajes. The tour exceeded all my expectations and has become the highlight of my time in Peru. The journey began with a comfortable and scenic train ride through Urubamba river valley. The panoramic windows of the train provided breathtaking views of the Andean landscape, setting the tone for the spectacular sights to come. On arrival in Aguas Calientes, we were warmly welcomed by our expert guide from Inka Explorer Viajes. He expertly navigated us through the throng of visitors and efficiently organized our bus journey tot he top of the mountain. Once at machu Picchu, the expertise of our guide truly shone through. His rich knowledge of the ancient Incan civilization, delivered in fluent English, brough the ruins to life. He took us through each section of the citadel, explaining the significance of the structures, the history and the intriguing theories around this world wonder. What struck me most was how he answered questions with patience and enthusiasm, accommodating everyone`s interests. His passion was contagious and brought an added layer of enjoyment to our exploration of this awe inspiring site. Post the guided tour, we had free time to explore the citadel at our own pace, to absorb the grandeur of the site and to take pictures. Despite the full day trip, we never felt rushed. Everything was well planned, allowing us to fully experience and appreciate this world heritage site. The return journey was as smooth as the morning trip. We were exhauseted but elated, our minds full of stunning images and fascinating facts about the Incan civilization. Inka Explorer Viajes provided a flawless service. Their punctuality, excellent organization, and professional guide made this journey hasslefree. The trip was well worth the price, and I wholeheartedly reccommend their services to anyone planning a trip to Machu Picchu. My day with them was not just a tour but an immersive journey into Peru`s rich past. It is an experience that I will cherish forever.
