Perfect Machu Picchu guide! - Jose Abad was our guide. He messaged us on WhatsApp the previous night and clearly stated the time of meeting. He arrived on time and took charge (with adequate courtesy) from that point on. He made sure that we got adequate 1 minute breaks to catch our breath while climbing. He had lots of things to point out and lots of stories to share and he was patient and helpful when we took lots of pictures. I think we got their best guide!

Great Machu Picchu Tour - Hiram was an excellent guide. He picked us up promptly at our hotel, and was very helpful with the bus process. He was very informative during the tour of Machu Picchu and took a ton of pictures for us. We highly recommend!

Great guide and experience - Jose was wonderful! Booking the trip was easy and they had great communication before the trip. (I had a lot of questions lol) Jose was super nice, met us at our hotel, guided us all around, and was very patient with my slow walking in MP citadel. Definitely recommend. You’ll learn way more about MP with a good guide.

Best guide and 3 hour visit! - Our guide, Gregory, was fun, lively and knowledgeable. This was my second time visiting Machu Picchu and it was even better than the first. The pace was great - lots of time to take photos and talk about the Inka culture and Maccu Picchu. Very well paced, easy to understand and knowledgeable. Thank you Gregory!

Best Day at Machu Picchu! - Gregory is the best! He not only enriched us with the history of Machu Picchu and the Incas, but also tailored our tour to what we wanted to do and see! He was in constant contact with us the day before and the day of our tour, and made sure that we knew exactly where to go and what to do to make in order to make the most of our time at Machu Picchu. 1000% would book with Gregory and the TreXperience team (Flor) again!

10/10 Machu Piccu Tour with tour guide Gregory! - Gregory, my guide, was simply amazing. He explained everything very good and I had the best time of my life. He took so many amazing fotos of me and always let me decide when we continue the tour or if I need a few minutes longer at a specific spot. I have a really good knowledge now of how the Inkas used to live and about their culture. I really hope for everyone you‘ll get Gregory as a tour guide, because he is literally the best one I have ever had!
