I had a wonderful experience. Changes of landscapes, diversity of activities and cultural discoveries. All the team was dedicated for our comfort and making this moment unique despite evident difficulties of the mountain. The cook was excellent and really surprising. They make incredible and confortable meals. Special thank to Klever for his incredible experience of mountain and knowledge of Peru and Latin America history. Thank you to Sebastian for his kindness and fulfilment in a perfect service providing.

My girlfriend and I did both the 5-day Salkantay and 2-day Colca canyon trek while in Peru. Though there are endless companies to book with, this Peruvian owned/operated company is the one to go with! My booking agent (Rosmel) and primary guide (William Elvis) were two of the best guides I have ever backpacked with. Both trips had amazing landscapes, delicious food as well as authentic cultural experiences, separating TreXPeriwnce from the pack. Do not question the (slightly) elevated priced of TreXperience compared to the non-Peruvian options through the hostels, their treks are work every penny. Special thank you to Rosmel and William Elvis for making my month in Peru so memorable. Bravo!

Our expectations were totally exceeded! Juan was an amazing guide and explained us a lot about the Inka, the landscape, flora and fauna and peruvian life along the way. Our chef Rolando and his team did an incredible job! We had the best food of our holiday on this trek.

This experience was one I will remember for the rest of my life. The hiking segments were challenging and we were rewarded everyday with delicious food and camping accommodations set up by the wonderful team. The chef, sous chef, and waiter worked so incredibly hard to make sure we were taken care of and our guide was extra patient with me as I took my time along some of the difficult paths. TreX was an amazing team and set up a wonderful 5 days of views and experiences for us.

What an amazing trip! The hiking was challenging both physically and mentally but SO worth it. The scenery was breathtaking. Our guides (Klever and Jilbert) were knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. The mountain chef was spectacular (I liked his food more than any restaurant in Lima, Cusco, or Aguas Calienties), and our porters/horsemen were hardworking and attentive. I would recommend this trip to anyone who loves hiking and exploring and I would definitely do it again.

We just got back from a fantastic 5-day Salkantay trek. First a huge shout out to our guides. Roberto. Our main guide was extremely kind and prioritized our needs. Plenio or Pepe, was his assistant and he followed Roberto’s lead on caring for the group. This was most evident the day after the earthquake when we were going through the fresh, very muddy landslide area. There were some extra special unexpected touches that made the trip extra special. On the first night, when temperatures went below freezing, we were all pleasantly surprised to find extra blankets and little pillows in our tent. Just as we finished dinner Roberto surprised us by telling us that we would each get a hot water bottle. The dreaded below freezing night no longer seemed so bad. Thank you, Roberto and Plenio. Food during the trek was very flavorful. Being vegetarian was not a problem on most days. The only exception was the day we had the BBQ when the chefs did not understand why grilling the chicken with the veggies made the veggies not okay for us. However, when I explained the situation to Roberto, he had the cooks make our food separately. We had plenty of food throughout the trek and really did not have to eat too many of the snacks we brought. Suggesting and pulling off the thermal bath diversion on day 3 was an excellent idea. In addition to allowing everybody to feel clean and refreshed, it also kept us away from the boring roadside hike to Llucambara. I will definitely recommend our guides and TreXperience to friends planning trips to Machu Pichu.

I want to highlight that our guide, Gary, was incredibly kind and helpful. He also provided an option for us to go to the hot springs on the 3rd day (which was an extra 50 soles but well worth it). We would not have been able to continue up the mountain on day 3 and the hot springs should be a break included in the pricing and package. They also give you warming pads and extra blankets for the first freezing night which was really amazing and helped. Being greeted with coca tea every morning was fantastic. The porters were also very professional. Things to consider: - The ultimate says online it's ~64 Kilometers. We were informed the day before leaving it was 82 kilometers. - There was intense pressure to stick to the program which meant that most days were spent waking up at 5am and then walking until at least 6pm. We felt we were in military camp and had absolutely 0 downtime to enjoy. I'd have rather woken up earlier to have some resting time in the evening. - We had only brief rests after shoveling food down our throats before walking again. - There was clearly a lot of stress that things 'went to the program' regardless of how the trekkers were doing. - My friend was injured on the 4th day and we were informed there was no way she could get to Aguas Caliente other than walking 10K more on her injured knee, which seems rather unsafe. - Most tours did not complete the final mountain hike on day 4 because of the amount of rain and mud making it a risky trek. We were told initially that probably the guides just didn't want to do it. As we started down the mountain we had over 1.5 hours of slick mud to trek through. i fell twice and my friend once. It was scary and unenjoyable. We should have been given the option to skip that hike and take a bus, I would have happily paid more. Because of the injuries sustained on day 4 we were unable to complete our additional hike at Machu Picchu, which meant losing 75 dollars and the hike that I actually wanted to do. I was very disappointed. The company should build in options for hikers if they are going to extend it by 20k more kilometers than advertised. The food was fine. Day 1 it was fantastic but not nearly enough protein the rest of the week, especially for the hikes we were doing. However, there was a lot of food at all times and it all tasted good. The chef did great. I want to thank Gary for doing all he could to keep us optimistic through the hike. It was clear he wanted to do well for us. He should be given more resources to make adjustments to the program based on safety and how the tour group is doing so that injuries could be minimized. We noted at the end that all other groups seemed happy and to be laughing. Our entire group was broken and exhausted. The one benefit is that we bonded and will remain friends. After speaking with friends who completed with Salkantay Treks and other companies, the key difference is where we were walking longs blocks of road (of which I can only assume are the extra 20k not on the program) they had been taking busses (even though they were also doing the 5 day 4 nights). All in all, I'm glad I did it but I would only choose this trek if you want to spend your time being pushed to your limits versus enjoying the landscape.

Excellent trek with Roger. Well organised - and great food from Alejandro. The day timings worked very well for the conditions and we had so much fun.

Me and my sister are super happy about choosing TreXperience! The food was awesome, the camp locations were amazing, the equipment great and the staff always took care of us. Especially our guides Gilbert and Gary were so nice! They had so much knowledge about everything, worked perfect as a team, were so funny and always made us laugh! Our favourite part of the tour, besides the amazing views, was talking to them and spending a fun time together. The prices are a bit higher that what you will find at other companies but it was definitely worth it knowing that the salary of the staff is way better than at other places. We also had a free cooking class included which was super fun and we got to take the vista dome train back to Cusco!

The Salkantay trek was such a great experience, the hike was epic and the Trexperience crew made it extra special with delicious food, incredible porters and an extremely helpful guide.

The TreXperience team did a fantastic job at making us feel comfortable during the Trek. Our guide was knowledgeable throughout and fluent in English and Spanish. The chefs cooked amazing food and we never went hungry. There were lots of little 1-percenters that made the experience memorable. Throughout the trek, the contrasting landscapes and sceneries provided us with an abundance of photo opportunities. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to explore the area, and discover some of the history, stories and myths of the Incas, the Spanish and the Peruvians.

The day before our departure, we learned our Salkantay Trek was unwalkable due to heavy rains and landslides. We were offered an alternative route: Ancascocha trek with one day on the Inca Trail. The Ancascocha trek reaches over 15,000ft and is very challenging - this is not a hike for beginners. But wow it was beautiful, and we did not see another group the entire time. My favorite part…being away from the crowds! I believe if we did the Salkantay trek it would have been much more packed (everyone in Cusco is advertising for it). We had the most amazing guide, Leo. He is such a positive, funny, kind and amazingly athletic person. He made the experience very special. He looked after us (8 people in our group), kept spirits up, and treated his team of porters and horsemen very well. The rest of the team was also amazing: Eulogio Gallegos Rosalio Churata Mauro Donato Paulino 12 horses that packed our belongings On the last hiking day we walked “backwards” on the Inca trail. By walking backwards we passed so many porters who were packing in the Inca tour groups items. Horses are not allowed on the Inca trail, so the porters pack everything on their backs. Very amazing, hard job that most definitely does not get paid enough. It was insane and made me sad. On the last day we arrived at Machu Picchu. It was of course amazing but was my least favorite part of the entire trek. There were so many people/tourists. Overall, I had a great experience on the Ancasocha trek. Very glad I did not do the Inca trail or Salkantay trek. The team was amazing and I met some wonderful people.

I went with a group of 5 travelers with the Trexperience company. We had a guide Sara, a cook Amilcar and two assistant cooks Enrique and Tiburcio. They were especially responsible for how amazing the whole experience was. Sara really took care of us and made sure we were ok at all times, waiting always for the last person during a walk and making some pretty tough decisions on the spot, as we encountered many landslides that had happened only as we had already started the journey. The food was also incredible, very diverse, delicious and abundant and included breakfast, lunch, dinner and snaks for the day. It was all really a 5 star experience that I will never forget. Shouout as well to the amazing porters who carried our stuff during the trek, they really made it so much easier!

Will always cherish this time I had my my family. Thank you to Willian Condor Rodriquez and Julio Caesar couldn’t not have been more pleasant as a guide and chef.

Hike was beautiful. A lot of Mountain View’s. Is a difficult hike at times but was very enjoyable. Our guides knowledge of the history of Incas was impressive

Before the trip, Trexperience was excellent in communicating with us. Our guide, Sutta was amazing. Our group was faced with several altitude related health challenges during the trip and Sutta took real good care of us. Unfortunately, one of us had to leave early and Sutta arranged transportation for him back to Cusco on a whim. During the trip, I was conversing with him and it was very clear to me that he really cared for us and was keeping track on everyone's health continously through the trek. I felt very safe and taken care of under Sutta's watch. Our chef was Sinchi accompanied by Julio, and Luis. They did an amazing job. Every meal was delicious and plentyful. Every meal was well balanced and had at least 4 different dishes at each meal. They even made us a delicious cake with frosting as part of breakfast one day! Oh.. and Sinchi's team served us tea and cheese sandwiches when we arrived at Salkantay pass @ 15000+feet. That's right, they lugged extra weight to serve us food at the highest point of the trek. Sinchi and his team also accommodated different diatery restrictions that our group had. I ate so well on this trip, I managed to not lose any weight despite the miles of hiking everyday. If you like the outdoors, and like to physically challenge yourself, do this trek. You are gifted with amazing views after concurring challenging terrain at altitude.

Doing the Salkantay Trek was a very good decision and we had an unforgettable experience. With TreXperience we found the perfect company for us: We were a small group of five travelers and were always in front of the other groups. Therefore we could experience nature without being surrounded by too many people. We couldn't have wished for a better Guide: Leo knew everything about the nature and the culture and didn't leave a question unanswered. Our chefs (Zenovio, Felix, Andres) did an amazing job and every day we were astonished again about what they were able to cook on the mountain. Over all we really can recommend this tour: Every day we were able to see a different side of nature and waking up on Llactapata in front of Machu Picchu in clouds was very mystical!

We had such an amazing and memorable trip on the Salkantay trek. Our guide Sutta was fantastic - he was so knowledgeable, fun, and experienced. We loved chatting with him during the hikes and at our campsites and meals! The hikes every day were beautiful! Definitely challenging (don’t underestimate the altitude!) but the views were worth it. I wasn’t feeling well the first two days of the trip (unrelated to this Trek), and Sutta made sure I felt comfortable and safe, and provided thoughtful options for us and was attentive to our needs. Sutta is well prepared for any situation, not only with supplies and medical knowledge but with the experience of having led hundreds of treks! Our chef Sinchi, assistant chef Julio, and helper Luis did an incredible job preparing delicious meals for our group. I was not expecting such elaborate dishes! Lots of different types of food at each meal, and they were able to accommodate others in our group that had specific food allergies. The food was not only tasty but always so nicely presented too - a nice surprise when you are camping! Our final day at Machu Picchu was great - Sutta was the best tour guide, taking his time to explain the history and significance of everything we were seeing (not just reciting facts but sharing the history and culture in an engaging way!). We added on the Huayna Picchu hike which was steep but the views at the top were awesome! I truly had an amazing (and humbling - those mountains and that altitude… whew!) experience, and highly recommend this trip to anyone looking for a memorable adventure… and make sure to ask for Sutta!

This is the kind of trip you will definitely enjoy as whole trip is designed to make you feel confortable. Our tour guide Filio is so nice & patience with 20 years experience, who shared routes, local remedies, incas lifestyle & he is a really good photographer (do not hesitate giving him your camera to take you photos). On the other side, the porter Ireneo & the chef Vidal were amazing, both so friendly helping with your stuff & ALL MEALS are AWESOME.

Amazing views with a great tour guide, Roger. He took amazing photos for us. The food was unbelievable at and thank you to the chef's Rolando and Eugilio
