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!

Having a private guide is so much better than trying to keep Up with a group and trying to get close to the guide so you can hear what they are saying. Our guide, Toro, was very patient, very considerate and very knowledgeable! He also escorted us to two different family owned restaunts that were insanely delicious! I highly recommend this personalized experience for Machu Picchu!

Considering it was the wettest March for a long time WeTravel managed to rebook us from our cancelled (due to safety) hiking trip to Machu Picchu onto a 2 day trip to Machu Picchu including the Sacred Valley. Janet was awesome in the process of rebooking and ensuring we all had our passes. Their guide Roger was excellent in describing everything as well as keeping the whole group entertained. I would use them again without hesitation. Steve

It was an unforgettable experience. Our guide Filio is excellent he told us their ancestral traditions and help about everything during the trip. After we webt back to our tent for lunch hit by hail storm and all the crew did their best to protect us they are very professional. Thanks for all Filio, our driver, our chef and second chef they are the best. And also food, food was fabtastic as well.
