- Roving644050527290 contributionsPeaceful and Scenic AdventureLares Trek with Bamba was very much a dream. The landscapes are stunning and we only met a few trekkers on the way. The guides were great, and the overall trip very smoothly run. Especially for those looking for a place where they will be left alone with nature.Written 24 October 2024
- Fearless413269741160 contributionsOff the Beaten Path A Beautiful ExperienceWant to avoid the crowds? The Lares Trek is perfect. The final touches of this plan were perfect and the enterprise was set in beautiful serene backdrops. The main plus was the attentive guides that made such trips remarkable.Written 22 October 2024
- Safari219292789990 contributionsRainbow Mountain ,A Must See!The Rainbow Mountain Trek was very tiring but definitely worth it. The colors of the mountain were amazing and Bamba’s guides ensured we were safe and comfortable with whatever we were needed for the hike. An unforgettable experience!Written 22 October 2024
- T874NYkerryb0 contributionsChallenging but BeautifulIf you’re up for a challenge, this trek is for you. The views are breathtakin', and the camp setups are comfy. Def a must-do for those who love hiking.Written 22 October 2024
- sergeig4060 contributionsAmazing experience on a 4-day Inca trail hike to Macchu PicchuUnforgettable experience of hiking the Inca trail to Macchu Picchu. Our guide Francisco has been absolutely amazing, deep diving into Inca history, including different theories that exist about the purpose of the buildings that we encountered on the way. He was very attentive to our pace. We never felt rushed and still made it to the sun gate among the first couple of groups. The team of porters have been absolute super heroes, running the trek with the heavy load, cooking amazing food and making us feel home.Written 20 October 2024
- 682mariyahl0 contributionsSalkantay 4 Day Trek , Beyond ExpectationsHonestly, the Salkantay 4 day trek was more amazing than I expected. What we saw was beautiful, and Bamba took care of everything from meals to guides.Written 20 October 2024
- andreahF961QF0 contributionsAmazing and unforgettable experienceWe had an amazing time trekking the Inca trail to Machu Picchu. As a first time camper, I felt safe knowing we were in good hands. Thanks to our awesome guide Francisco who is very knowledgeable of the mountain trail, Inca culture and history. He made it fun for us and was very personable to everyone. He would definitely be one if not the best guide out there! Also special mention to our hardworking porters Nassario, Juan Karlos and Agapito who got our tents ready for resting after a full day of trekking and prepared meals to fill up our energy. Machu Picchu is such a sight to behold and the experience would not have been complete if it wasn’t for these beautiful people who supported us both rain or shine. We were very lucky that the sun was out and bright on Day 4, Machu Picchu showed up from the Sun Gate. Pachamama delivered! ☀️Written 18 October 2024

- 996winifreds0 contributionsHonestly best trip !Absolutely, to be honest, Rainbows Mountain is something which I have never seen in my entire life! This is a very challenging trek but the colors of the mountain are so beautiful. Bamba’s guides were also encouraging throughout.Written 15 October 2024
- G3250HFclaudiam0 contributionsExcellent journeyI visite with my family I say that difficult journey but absolutely rewarding one.

- janiyahh20240 contributionsI enjoy my tripReally I enjoyed this other trek to Machu Picchu. There were amazing waterfalls and inca sites plus it is much less crowded than Inca trail. Highly recommend!Written 13 October 2024
- lucasaL6131BW0 contributionsHonestly great tripI honestly say that for the adventurous people, this is the one stop shopping type of trip. Everything right from zip lining to rafting was happening all around. It made a profound memory when on the last day at Machu Picchu I was thoroughly tired.Written 13 October 2024
- Z7013UOmartab0 contributionsTruly beautiful tripThis Salkantay Trek is truly beautiful. This is a much less crowded trail than the Inca trail but the sights one gets to see are very beautiful. 5 days walking and finally get to Machu Picchu was the best reward!Written 12 October 2024
