We decided to visit the Nazca Lines and Ballestas Islands on a relatively short notice. In spite of this, Derwis and Vilma took action and made all the reservations within 24 hours, and communicated with us constantly to make sure we knew what was going on at all times. The trip was well-organized and everything went according to the itinerary. Paracas, where we stayed, is a beautiful city. At night we dined at some of the restaurants by the seaside and enjoyed relaxing and pleasant views and walks. The food was superb too! Overall, I would not hesitate to recommend this memorable experience! - Hannah and Juan.

We took the tour on 24 April 2021. First, we waited more than 20 min for one of the parties to show up. We waited another 20 min in the van for that same party after lunch was over while they ate birthday cake. We ate at the same restaurant for breakfast and lunch. The food was good; however, there wasn't enough for the last two people in our party of 10 and definitely not enough if you wanted more--at both meals. The temperature in the morning was in the 40's and neither the van nor the restaurant had heat. The hot food at breakfast was cold because it was just sitting out and the guide ignored me when I asked for heat. He also ignored me a second time when I asked if they could do something about the walking sticks slamming up against the walls as we drove. Ultimately I ended up opening the back myself when they had to stop for gas (which they should have already done before they arrived) and reorganizing them so they wouldn't roll around. On the way back it was much warmer and there was no air circulation in the van; however, diesel fumes and dust was somehow blowing in. At lunch all the windows and doors were open at the restaurant. Again, there was not enough food and the food that was available was uncovered and swarming with flies. At the end of the tour we were dropped off about 10 minutes away from our hotel and told to walk back. There was never hand sanitizer available nor were temperatures ever taken. No one on this tour wore their mask in the van and the guide was upfront behind a shield. We were supposed to receive a briefing in our hotel the night before, but just received an email. After the tour was over the guide gave us a 5 min or less informational briefing about the history of the mountain, but nothing prior. I would definitely not recommend this company when there are so many who are so much better.

It is an easily accessible walk for everyone, without limitations or necessary permits (at least for the moment) next to the city of Mollepata, Cusco with Machu Picchu, Salkantay Trek are ancient treasures and outside the traditional route located in the same area, like the Inca Trail, where you can see large icy mountains covered with snow that combine with the abundant rainforest. The name of this mountain of Salkantay Trek is a contraction that comes from Salqa which means sullen, wild and Antay that means producing eyebrows or avalanches; This is an alternate route to the usual Inca Trail for those who did not get to get spaces, we have considered this route of Salkantay Trek as one of the best alternatives since in all this journey we can appreciate the flora and fauna and the tranquility that one needs to to be able to reflect and be in touch with the nature that surrounds us.

I highly recommend Machu Picchu Inca Trekking when planning a trek on the Inca Trail and for visiting Cusco. Our guide and coordinator, Eric Alexander Castro Olivera, was fantastic. You really need somebody to plan for you as doing a trek requires purchasing permits for the trail, transportation to and from the train station, purchasing train and bus tickets, as well as coordinating city tours. Patient and reliable, Eric escorted us through the ancient Inca ruins explaining history and legends. It was very fascinating to hear him speak and it was all from the heart.
