Day Tour at Sacred Valley

Had an afternoon private tour of part of the sacred valley near Cusco with Jhois from Alpaca Expeditions. Way better than walking by myself. Jhois is quite knowledgeable and shared a lot of history and how the daily life looks like for locals. Li Ming

Great experience

It was a great experience. Well planned and organized. We paid around $545 for both circuit 1 and 3. Ours was a full day tour to Machu Picchu. Our tour guide (Javier Flores) was very friendly and explained everything properly. Overall great trip.

Loved our private tour!

Amazing! We had a private tour of the Sacred Valley with Ray. He was extremely informative, funny, and a great photographer. He took us to lunch and gave us great advice on site seeing and other tours we were interested in. They were also very accommodating, thoughtful, and well planners. It felt like we had the sites to ourselves. I highly recommend this team!

Alpaca Expeditions highly recommended

4D 3N Inca Trail with Alpaca Expeditions is highly recommended. They made the experience as seamless as possible as it was very well organised. Thanks to the porters all you need to carry is a day bag and enjoy the trail. Special thanks to our guides Juan Carlos Zuloaga & Yanelith, chef Alfredo and head porter Cesar.

100% recommend Alpaca Expeditions 4 day Inca Trail

Once in a lifetime experience! Bucket list item!

Everything was perfect from pickup to drop off and all the amazing things in between.

Juan Carlos Zuloaga was an exceptional guide with a lot of knowledge, organised and a great sense of humour.

Yanelith was super caring and great support.

Alfredo the chef did a phenomenal job. We ate better on the trip than we did in any Cusco restaurant.

Cesar head of porters was super! Everything was done smoothly and I am in awe of the porters.

If you are considering booking the tour - I would highly recommend Alpaca Expeditions!!

We had a wonderful time with Juan visiting the Inca sites in Cusco, the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. Juan is very knowledgeable about the history and prehistory of the Inca civilization. He also knew all the best spots for pictures! We really appreciated his expertise.

In general: What an experience! Great guides, chefs, and porters. Alpaca Expeditions is a green company that pays close attention to their carbon footprint, sources their food locally, and has various programs that give back to their community. Bonus: they have a portable toilet that is well maintained and stocked with TP at all times. My personal experience: This is long, but hopefully helpful if you have any reservations about whether you can accomplish this trek! I arrived in Cuzco to acclimate 3 days early…however, I unfortunately succumbed to the altitude on day one of the actual hike and got worse on day 2 and 3. It is not lost on me that I was ONLY able to complete the trek because of the Alpaca team. The chef team, led by Cecilio, were very accommodating to my needs and prepared different teas to try to help me. Our groups guides, Alvin and Yojhan, were beyond encouraging and made sure I was safe the whole time. One of them was always with me even though I took twice as long as the rest of the group. >_< I can’t stress enough how important it is to have the right team supporting you in any situation. Their company’s back bone is stellar, but their actions during the hike showed me their heart is unbeatable.

I recently completed the 4-day Inca Trail with Alpaca Expeditions alongside my teenage daughters, and it exceeded every expectation. The weather was perfect all four days, which made the stunning views even better. Our guides, Yojhan and Alvin, were true experts, sharing deep insights into Incan history, the wildlife, and the flora and fauna of the area. They were incredibly patient and answered every question we had about Peru and more. From the start, they encouraged us to keep smiles on our faces and told us we’d become a "super family" by the end—and that is exactly what happened. The "super porters" worked tirelessly, and our chef Cecilio and his assistant cooked incredible meals for us along the way. Everything went perfectly to plan, and we finished the expedition with celebratory toasts and a shared album for photos with our new friends. I cannot recommend this team highly enough!

Muy buena experiencia con Alvin y Yojhan haciendo el camino Inka clásico. La comida que nos hizo Cecilio y Angelito estaba impresionante. Repetiría seguro!

The 4 day Inca trip was the best trip i have had in my lifetime. Beyond the scenic scenery everything has been well planned through. Alvin and Yohan were there for any possible inquries and shared a lot of nice insights along the inca trail. The food was better than any regular meal you can grab in town and was served three times a day by the amazing chef Cecilo and his crew. If you don’t do this trip you miss out.
