I am going on the 4 day trek to Machu Picchu and leaving out of Cuzco. What agency is best to hire for hike?

Question

If you have done the hike before I would be grateful for your input and if you liked/disliked the company you went through and why. Thanks

Answer 1

there are hundreds of agencys in Cuzco, they are all good, but some are cheaper

Answer 2

I've done it with Lima tours. Check their web page (www.limatours.com.pe) but let me tell you that Inka Trail is also a very good company. It is best to hire the inka trail with MONTHS in advance, very popular spot right now and they limit the number of people on the trail now so if you wait until reaching Cuzco you may not be able to do the trail.

Answer 3

Almost all are good, but REI in the States has excellent guides but may be a little pricey. They also have fixed trip dates.

Frommer's recommends several agents in the link below.

Good luck.
