Everything about this tour was perfect. Two days before, Franklin arrived at the hotel to give us the briefing of what the tour would be like. He left us perfectly ordered tickets, train, bus, tickets to the park and itinerary. The day of the tour, Jordi, the one in charge of taking us from the hotel to the train station, was punctual and super polite. While we were going to the train station, another car collided with ours and for a moment I thought "we are going to miss Machu Picchu". Jordi immediately got another car to take us, and he was left solving the problem of the accident. Martin, the driver who got us Jordi, was also super friendly and courteous, took us to the train which we even arrived 10 minutes before and explained clearly all the steps we had to follow when arriving in Ollantaytambo. Fredi, the general coordinator, even had the kind gesture of calling Martin's phone to ask how we were doing and if everything was fine with us due to the accident. (as if it was his fault). The trip on the train was magical. We took the Vista Dome and I can actually tell you that it is worth every extra penny you pay to have a view of such a beautiful landscape. In Ollantaytambo we were received for a young lady who guided us to board the bus that would take us to Machu Picchu, where Jose Luis, our guide, was waiting for us. Jose Luis is someone who knows a lot about Machu Picchu (pronounced ma-choo-peek-choo). If you go, and you are lucky enough to have Jose Luis as a guide, please ask him what does "Pichu" mean;), because he wouldn't tell me. Machu Picchu is simply magical. There is no more to say. It is overwhelming. Traveling friend: If Machu Picchu is part of your bucket list, do not leave it for later. And if you go to Machu Picchu, PLEASE hire this company to be your guide, they are super professional, polite...they are wonderful. All tourism companies in Cusco should follow the high standard set by Mr. Fredi's company. Congratulations. You are it. When I return to Cusco, I will make sure to hire ALL of my tours with you. A big hug. And again, thank you very much
From start to finish, my experience was flawless. The driver came to pick us up on time. The drive to the station was comfortable. The driver was kind and attentive. The tour guide was knowledgeable about the ruins and their history. We had an amazing time.
I would highly recommend this tour. We were well taken care of from start to finish. Our driver picked us up at the hotel and delivered us to the train. We were met by another person when we got off the train and escorted to the bus. Our guide Carlos led us through Machu Picchu and tailored the tour to what we wanted to see and our abilities. Carlos was a great guide and we learned so much about Machu Picchu and the Inca culture from him. We had some time to shop before we boarded our train for the trip back. While this was a long day, we really enjoyed the personal attention that the private tour afforded us.
I had a wonderful time on my Machu Picchu private tour. I was picked up from my hotel on time, early in the morning. I met my tour guide, Fredi, at the site. The whole thing was just perfect. No delays, good communication, information, and very good tour of the site. The train ride was also quite something. I will recommend this trip to anyone who wants to visit the ruins on a more personal level.
