My wife and I booked our first ever guided tour with TreXperience for 6 days touring Cusco, Machu Picchu, Rainbow Mountain, The Sacred Valley, and many other Incan sights and ruins. WOW!!! That is all I can say about every staff member, every excursion, and every day of this trip. The experienced surpassed our expectations in every way. At all points during this tour we felt like everything was under control and organized. The guides were so passionate and full of knowledge and the history of the Inca's. We booked this amazing vacation to celebrate my 60th birthday. On my birthday I was surprised by a cake by our guide. The next day with a different guide I was surprised again with another cake while enjoying our outdoor dinner in the valley after hiking rainbow mountain. I was sung happy birthday in 4 different languages from members of our group. I cannot recommend TreXperience highly enough. Thanks to all of them both behind the scenes and out on the journeys we had the time of our lives. Joe C

We had an amazing time joining the tour by TreXperience. We had two different tour guides for the 6 days/5 nights tour: Lene and Klever are both very caring and knowledgable, and I can tell they are very passionate and love their job. The different tour drivers are also very skilled and talented, there are quite a few unpaved roads and sometimes could be bumpy, but my kids were still able to take naps in the van. Also we had two groups of chefs made us three delicious meals in the wild. This was definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience. If you don't mind wake up early in the morning, I highly recommend TreXperience.

Friendly helpful staff. Food on the trek was better than I eat at home. If you are planning on doing the Inca Trek, then book with this company!

Our guide Klever was fantastic; eager to share his vast knowledge and personal background. I learned so much and loved the details he shared of the areas we visited.

10 out of 10! Rosmel assisted with my booking and kindly answered every question and concern (and I had a lot!). The drivers were all timely and very safe on the road. The guides (Miguel and Filio) were enthusiastic, knowledgeable and genuinely did all they could to ensure a great experience. The chefs were great too, and I loved getting to try traditional dishes. The hotel rooms were clean and comfortable with a delicious breakfast. As a solo female traveler, I always felt safe and didn't stress at all once I was picked up. All group sizes were small (5 was the biggest) and allowed a lot of personal attention. I cannot recommend this company enough!
