      Great experience
      Great experience!! They took care of everything from getting picked-up at the hotel to drop-off and everything in between. Manolo was so nice and took care of us in Ica.

      A must if you are capable
      You’ll need to plan this at least 6 months in advance. I suggest the early time slot if you can. If you’ve acclimated in Cusco or the Inca trail this will be easier for you. Plan on a very steep and hard trek to the top. This is not for children. If you expect a nice path with easy stairs like you’ll find in Machu Picchu don’t waste your money. When you make it to the top, wow....

      Machu Picchu is great but WaynaPicchu is better
      Our trip in May was my second to Cusco and the first one for my friend. I already had in mind to visit WaynaPicchu since I couldn’t do it in my first trip (my kids were too small for such a hike) and it was more than I expected. Maybe it was the anticipation, or maybe it was the hour hike it took to get there, but once I made it I thought the place was even more beautiful than the main citadel, the buildings were constructed in an area that is far steeper, challenging, and surrounded by unmatched views. You will be grateful you made it there, but be mindful that if you are not used to strenuous hikes then this one will challenge you, just take it slowly and don’t over do it. On the way back you can pretty much follow the same route or you can take the long route. If you decide to take the long route then be aware of endless stairs with narrow steps all the way down, your tights will burn and your legs will cramped... well at least mine did, but we got to visit some structures most people don’t get to see, the temple of the moon is one of them and a number of ruins being overtaken by nature. It was well worth it.

      Amazing!
      This was the highlight of our Macchu Picchu trip! The climb is difficult, but not impossible and there are railings on the steepest places. Wonderful view of Macchu Picchu from the top and beautiful scenery throughout. It took me about an hour to climb up; my husband took a bit longer due to the altitude.

      Climbed Wayna (Huayna) Picchu
      It was an awesome climb! And it was Not near as physically challenging as the four day Inca Trail. Looks intimidating but it was fairly safe for a 60+ year old (that is in good physical shape). It took my wife & I about 30 to 40 minutes to climb. It had steel cable handrails along the mountain side for many parts of the climb. You should be acclimated to the elevation prior to climbing. And train on hikes and/or stair master. Spectacular views. Worth the climb and price.

      carefully of the entry time
      first of all machu picchu was amazing,but only can re-entry twice! wayna picchu was amazing too but there were only 2 slot of time 200 people can get inside each time, need to book the ticket before. My slot was 10-11 entry time, so we thought we could spend more time in machu picchu so we reached the entry gate at 11. the guard was telling us that it takes around 1 hour to go to the peak. So we run all the way....some of the hiker couldn't make it to the peak because around 12, the guard on the peak would stop people to go up anymore. be very careful of the steep road. enjoy

      Must do if visit MachuPicchu
      1.5 hour climbing up to the top of WaynaPicchu is worth celebrating, and a panoramic view of ManchuPicchu. If you plan to visit MachuPicchu, then make sure you do this challenging climb to WaynaPicchu. You will not regret !

      Bring water and be prepared for a workout!
      Absolutely loved this climb and the amazing scenery it has to offer. Be warned though, it is not a leisurely stroll. The steps are steep and you climb very high, very fast. We stopped for breaks and to catch our breath along the way, the altitude makes it hard to catch your breath even if you are physically fit. The end result is undoubtedly worth it though.

      Our trip highlight
      I booked in advance to be able to climb the Wayna Picchu. What I didn't know is that you have to queue at 530 am in the morning in order to enter on the 7-8 am window I had but there were soooo many people that it took us 50 minutes to be able to get on the bus that takes you to the top of the mountain where the entrance to Machu Picchu is. The climb was fabulous. It was exhausting but well worth it. It was safe , steep and it took sus 45 minutes to reach the top At that time it was difficult to see Machu Picchu as it was rainy season and it was covered with clouds. We waited half an hour and the sky cleared and what a view ! The only think to consider is HS tinge at the top you have to pass between two rocks and if you are a big size you will have to crawl to pass through it. The way down was the same 45 minutes with several stops for pictures.

      lack of information clarity
      The travel agency in Cusco withheld some information. When signing up, the agent was not clear or was intentionally not making it clear some of the information. For first timer, it is important to clarify all the details of the tour package. and refrain from the assumption that "everything is taken care of". e.g. when I booked the package to go from Cusco to Puno, the agent told that we would use "wonder peru" shuttle bus. This shuttle was roomy. But don't assume that when you come back from puno to Cusco, it would be the same bus. We came back on a local bus which was bearable and quite stuffy. I just wished the agent had told us and we'd have had less surprise when coming back. You would hear agent saying "everything will be taken care of". Ask the agent to get into details as to what the package covers in great details as they would intentionally gloss over some details. And when you have assumptions, you would end up paying additional (some additional charges may pop up along the way under the umbrella of "everything will be taken care of"). I believed the agent had been ambiguous intentionally as part of their salary is commission-based. There were a couple other small details that just made me feel not being treated as a customer fairly. In the end, when you pay lots of money to the tour agency, you at least want to feel being treated normally, instead of unfairly, or being cheated as they (he) withheld information. I personally don't recommend this travel agency and encourage ppl to shop around more if you have time. It is suggested that travelers not sign up with travel agencies in Cusco to go to Puno. One can go to Puno and sign up with a travel agency in puno. That would reduce the cost by 50%, which I later learned. I would not recommend signing up with most of the agencies in Cusco unless you really know they would deliver a reasonable OK service.

    Optamos por esta agencia por los comentarios y No nos defraudaron.
    Buena relación precio calidad.
    Son puntuales, guías expertos, con mucho conocimiento siempre pendientes a cualquier situación, están al pendiente de cualquier consulta las 24 horas vía WhatsApp, enviándote el itinerario de cada tour. Se cumplió todo lo mencionado en cada excursión los 4 días, rescatamos la amabilidad, el servicio y la paciencia de Jhimy, cada noche iba al hotel para explicarnos la siguiente excursión, con buenas recomendaciones y en el tour a Palccoyo el fue nuestro guía, muy amable, explicando todo y ayudándonos a cada momento.
    Los Guías: Elvis (Machu Picchu) nos tuvo una paciencia increíble, con buena información acerca de lo que estábamos conociendo, toma muy lindas fotografías, siempre al pendiente de nosotros hasta el final!
    Joel (Laguna Humantay) una de las excursiones con más complejidad pero muy lindo lugar, así como todo lo que conocimos, nos dio ánimo para llegar a la Laguna, estuvo al pendiente de las personas que subieron y bajaron en caballo, comunicándose con los Arieros (que también estuvieron impecables en su labor), atento a nuestra seguridad.
    Se agradece a estos guías que se comportaron de la mejor manera en cada situación, con la mejor onda!
    Los Chóferes como Rafael, muy profesionales conocían la ruta lo que nos daba seguridad.
    La única recomendación: es mejorar la opción del restaurante del tour de Valle Sagrado, tenía muy pocas opciones y al momento que llegamos como para almorzar esas opciones se estaban acabando y no tenían buen sazón.
    Muchas gracias por cada momento, Familia Ayala.
    Les recomiendo esta agencia de Viajes, para conocer Cusco de la mejor manera.
