We had a trip to Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu early Oct 2019. We booked this trip about 1 month in advance online from Germany. Everything went perfect as planned. There was no extra cost during the whole trip - except of course the meals. The guides were very motivated and could speak fluent english. The bus was in good shape. The hostal was clean. The buffet stop was one of the best buffets I had. We even got an early train ticket, back from Aguas Callientes, which is much more expensive than a late one, even without requesting it. The only thing which was a bit negative was, that the groups were a bit bigger than expected. We had about 12-16 people in both groups. And 1 driver had difficulties to catch us up from the train station. But the tour operator was reachable via Text/WhatsApp and could resolve this easily. She asked multiple times via Whatsapp if everything was fine. I would book the same tour again!

Reviews
Fue una experiencia increíble! Los guías que tuvimos fueros excepcionales, tanto el primer día en Chinchero, Urubamba y Ollantaytambo con Junior, siempre pendiente de que estuviésemos disfrutando la experiencia, muy simpático y agradable. Como en Machu Picchu con Eric, un guía con un increíble y vasto conocimiento del lugar, nos dio muchísimo datos y explicaciones que casi nos hizo sentir que estábamos en tiempo de los incas. Fue además nuestro guía privado, sólo para nosotros dos y desde luego marcó la diferencia. Tanto que ya estamos pensando en hacer el Inca trail! Por otro lado, todo estuvo muy bien organizado, los trenes, buses, personas esperando en la estación con nuestro nombre en el cartel, y el hotel en Aguas Calientes también estupendo. Desde luego para repetir 😊
Hemos tenido asistencia rápida cuando hemos tenido una inconveniencia (ajena a la empresa en si, ha sido el transfer del hotel contratado) y han respondido inmediatamente por whatsapp cuando hemos tenido dudas (ej horarios de tren, etc.). Explican todo con detalle en su oficina o por whatsapp, algo que se agradece porque los itinerarios de las excursiones pueden ser confusos. Buenos precios
