Amazing trip
The views were amazing, my guide Samuel met with me the night before Machu Picchu and explained how everything will work very well. He did a great job.
Machu Picchu Circuit 2 and 3
We were provided with extremely helpful and kind service by the Team and Samuel. He is extremely knowledgeable and gave us a very pleasant and lovely experience with gems and insights we would have not been able to figure out by ourselves. Sam is very friendly and you can count on having someone take care that you experience the best wonder of Peru and immerse yourself in its culture and historical significance.
Samuel is the best tour guide!
The company is well organized in getting you from Cusco to Machu Picchu which is much appreciated and my tour guide for Machu Picchu, Samuel, was awesome. He knew all the history and we got lucky on our tour with the llamas walking right up to us! 10/10 highly recommend.
Amazing day tour made possible by our guide, Samuel.
I took the Inca Trail Machu Day Tour with my girlfriend and the trip was very memorable. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and it was made possible by our guide, Samuel. This review is a recommendation of Samuel who we were assigned through the tour company Tierras Vivas. He was extremely clear on pickup timings, very knowledgeable about the Lost City of the Incas and always made sure we took adequate breaks in the middle to roam around take pictures, in fact he took very professional pictures of us too! Visiting this great wonder of the world is a lifetime experience, and it makes its ever so important to choose the way you experience it, I am glad that we had Samuel for this journey.
