What people love about Salkantay Trek Tours
- Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu 4D/3N
We just came back from the Salkantay trek. It was an unforgettable experience! Our guide had a lot of knowledge of this area and shared it with us all. Our porters were great, and the chef cooked a lot of yummy food. Bamba is a great company to book with.

The whole trip - Peru is awesome!
Wonderful tour guide & tour company with excellent service & great Peru experience! Loved that TreXeperience is a tour agency that supported the local community with local campsites, drivers, tour guides, horsemen, chefs. My tour guide (Hubert) is kind, helpfu, joyfull and informative throughout the entire trek and tour experience. He guided us well through the trek, shared the rich history, culture, food and local information about Peru and the Incan civilisation. He assisted me greatly from the briefing, to the trek, Machu Picchu and to the train & car back to my Cusco accommodation. The assistant chef (Manuel) and head chef (Lorenzo) were amazing in preparing delicious meals (International meals, Peru meals) and constantly delighted us with their surprises (prepared with minimal resources)! Highlight was the Peru cooking preparation of pachamanca (superb food for our lunch). Appreciate their sincerity and warmth in providing yummy meals for us to push us through the trek. Loved that the team ensured that our tents, sleeping bags, blankets were all set up as we arrived at our campsite every night.
