Amazing experience on Inca Trail with Alpaca

Amazing experience. Did the 4 day Inca trail hike. Highly recommend Alpaca, they went above and beyond for us. Juan Carlos H and Edwin were our guides who were brilliant. The porters and chefs always made sure we were well fed and looked after. If you do Machu Picchu, Alpaca is the one!

10/10 - Lucio was the best!

Lucio was an incredible tour guide! He was so informative and he knew so much about the history and the local plants and wildlife. He was so encouraging, especially when the hike got tough in some parts. The entire expedition was so well organized and I had such a great time. Would recommend to anyone to experience the Inca trail in a short amount of time!

Inca trail with Alpaca Expeditions

The trip was really well organised with a local guide. Before starting the trail we were given lots of information and we were able to rent what we needed. Henrry our guide was great at communicating information about the sites, he was very encouraging and made the Inca trail a lot of fun. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of food lots of choice and different dishes everyday. Raul did an amazing job keeping us well fed throughout the trek. The porters also did an amazing job and were very friendly and helpful.

A wonderfull Hike on the short Inca Trail

We had a wonderful 2-day short Inca Trail Hike with Nilton and Ever! It was informative, it was fun and they took pretty well care of the group. We made enough breaks during our hike for drinking and for listening to interesting facts about flora, fauna or history. The lunch was freshly cooked and it was amazing. The cook and the porters also doing a great job. On the second day we learned ablot about Machu Picchu and the history of Peru in generel. Thank you for that once in a lifetime experience :)

Nilton and Ever were fantastic guides…

Nilton and Ever were fantastic guides on a 2 day/1 night Machu Picchu experience! Nilton has a wealth of knowledge about the Peruvian and Incan culture. His English is perfect and was able to answer all questions. Also, Ever is a fantastic photographer and was always willing to help with photos! We had a fabulous trip- a bucket list trip! Definitely a must-do!

great experience with Nilton and Ever on the Inca-Trail

Had a great experience. Nilton and Ever are perfect guides, they did a great job and made us have a wonderful time. They teached us many things over the nature and history of Peru and machu Picchu. If I visit Peru again, I hope I can do another trip with that two guys. Thank you so much!

The Salkantay Trek

The Salkantay Trek with Rodrigo and Timoteo’s team was amazing. While the hikes could be challenging everyone did a fantastic job at making it a positive experience. Timoteo’s cooking was spectacular and provided so many options and was so accommodating for everyone in our group! Rodrigo was also a great guide and provided so much knowledge and history. I could not recommend Alpaca and Rodrigo & Timoteo more!!

Amazing!

We had an amazing time on the Salkantay trek! Our guide, Rodrigo, and the rest of the staff were awesome - so helpful and knowledgeable. I was especially grateful that they could accommodate my vegan diet for every meal. The altitude was rough but so worth it for the experience. We absolutely loved Machu Picchu at the end!

An excellent adventure

This was a very well organized adventure along the inka trail for 5D/4N. The porters were very friendly and professional. Excellent meals were provided by “don Pedro”, and I am still amazed by how he was able to provide so much variety on the side of a mountain for 4 days. Alex, our guide, was the just the best! He was sm excellent guide, but even better person - so kind, and went above and beyond at every corner.

This was incredible experience

This was incredible experience! It was one of the most challenging and yet most rewarding experience of my life. We were a group of 4 people of varying abilities and did the 5 day 4 night trek for a little more time to enjoy the trail and the sights; but it was still very physically demanding. Alex was our guide and he was so kind and patient and able to flex to the different needs of our group day to day. He is super knowledgeable and helpful and I recommend him to anyone going on this experience! Also the porters that carry all the equipment were such a hardworking and kind group of people it was really heartwarming to witness their comraderie and hospitality in action. Our Chef Pedro was incredible his cooking was better than many of the meals I had in local restaurants, made with fresh ingredients while you eat with a gorgeous view on the side of the mountain. I will never forget this experience it was amazing.

Classic Inca trail

This has been on the bucket list for long time and from start to finish, the communication, support and service from the team has been amazing.
The super porters are truly inspirational, with our guide Eriko educating us and brought the Inca culture to life. Not forgetting the a chefs and what they can produce on the side of a mountain… amazing!!!!
I would recommend this to anyone who wants to experience something truly special.

The only way to do Salkantay..

We could tell Victor S. put so much love and care into what he does every day. We felt well supported and guided by Victor. We loved his personality, outlook on life and sense of humour - definitely made the tougher days that little bit easier! We learnt so much from Victor and have left with a once in a lifetime experience and plenty of memories. The hard work of our chef Fabian, and sous chef Jose Alfredo, didn’t go unnoticed and we were provided with a proper taste of traditional Peruvian food after a long day hiking! It was absolutely delicious and we looked forward to what they were cooking up each day! Overall Alpaca Expeditions was a great company to do the Salkantay trek with and would highly recommend to anyone considering the trek!
