Alpaca Expeditions 

Juan Carlos H THE BEST tour guide and made the trip amazing and so memorable, along with Edwin!!! The trek was beautiful and the porters and chefs took great care of our group. We also met so many lovely people, both locals and others on the trip. I definitely recommend Alpaca if you’re planning a trip to the Inca trail!!!

This was a once in a lifetime experience. Our guide Juan Carlos (JCH) was exceptional and his assistant Edwin is a great guy and very helpful. The food was great, particularly considering hiwbgar everything needed to be trekked in. The amount of historical and cultural education was excellent. So informative. Make sure you are in shape and okay with getting up early.

Amazing experience. Did the 4 day Inca trail hike. Highly recommend Alpaca, they went above and beyond for us. Juan Carlos H and Edwin were our guides who were brilliant. The porters and chefs always made sure we were well fed and looked after. If you do Machu Picchu, Alpaca is the one!

Perfect organsation by Alpaca team with high level of service in the middle of high mountain area, lead by experienced guide and great story teller Juan Carlos. Great fun!

JC H was the best tour guide with Edwin, delicious food by Moises keeping our energy up!

Die Organisation war perfekt. In diesen 5 Tagen und 4 Nächten gab es nichts was nicht gut durchdacht war. Angefangen von unserem Guide Frank "the Tank", unserem Chefkoch, unseren Trägern, die uns immer hilfsbereit zur Seite standen und die Wanderung zu einem unvergesslichen Erlebnis machten. Danke sehr!

A experiência foi incrivel. Alem da organização da nossa jornada, Alpaca é uma empresa que se preocupa em auxiliar os moradores locais, com diferentes investimentos em iniciativas importantes. Herlin, nosso guia, é uma pessoa unica, afavel, com muito conhecimento e realmente apaixonado pelo seu trabalho e cultura do seu povo, é um homem que tem orgulho de suas raizes. Nos sentimos muito acolhidos, o que tornou uma experiência incrivel em algo inesquecível. Ainda por cima, a comida estava incrivel, Soledad é uma cozinheira de mão cheia.

Had a very seamless experience with knowledgeable and helpful guides - plus their business practices are ethical and sustainable which is a nice bonus!

This was an amazing experience. Lucio was our tour guide and was just full of knowledge and the best guide we've ever had. Really well organised, amazing food. I felt like I learnt everything I needed to know about Inca history by the end! Would recommend to anyone!

Lucio was an incredible tour guide! He was so informative and he knew so much about the history and the local plants and wildlife. He was so encouraging, especially when the hike got tough in some parts. The entire expedition was so well organized and I had such a great time. Would recommend to anyone to experience the Inca trail in a short amount of time!

The trip was really well organised with a local guide. Before starting the trail we were given lots of information and we were able to rent what we needed. Henrry our guide was great at communicating information about the sites, he was very encouraging and made the Inca trail a lot of fun. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of food lots of choice and different dishes everyday. Raul did an amazing job keeping us well fed throughout the trek. The porters also did an amazing job and were very friendly and helpful.

Really friendly and helpful team which made the whole experience enjoyable. The food cooked by chef Raul was consistently great and varied. Henrry our tour guide made the whole trip fun!!

We had a wonderful 2-day short Inca Trail Hike with Nilton and Ever! It was informative, it was fun and they took pretty well care of the group. We made enough breaks during our hike for drinking and for listening to interesting facts about flora, fauna or history. The lunch was freshly cooked and it was amazing. The cook and the porters also doing a great job. On the second day we learned ablot about Machu Picchu and the history of Peru in generel. Thank you for that once in a lifetime experience :)

Nilton and Ever were fantastic guides on a 2 day/1 night Machu Picchu experience! Nilton has a wealth of knowledge about the Peruvian and Incan culture. His English is perfect and was able to answer all questions. Also, Ever is a fantastic photographer and was always willing to help with photos! We had a fabulous trip- a bucket list trip! Definitely a must-do!

Nilton & Ever have been great. They are both knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. Along the route we learned a lot about what Inka history and day to day life. This has been an eye opening experience I will remember for the rest of my life. Thank you Nilton & Ever!

Nilton and Ever were great guides. Always helpful and lots of knowledge about the different stops of our trip. Always enough time for questions, photos and some funny stories. They made our trip very comfortable as everything was well coordinated.

Had a great experience. Nilton and Ever are perfect guides, they did a great job and made us have a wonderful time. They teached us many things over the nature and history of Peru and machu Picchu. If I visit Peru again, I hope I can do another trip with that two guys. Thank you so much!

The Salkantay Trek with Rodrigo and Timoteo’s team was amazing. While the hikes could be challenging everyone did a fantastic job at making it a positive experience. Timoteo’s cooking was spectacular and provided so many options and was so accommodating for everyone in our group! Rodrigo was also a great guide and provided so much knowledge and history. I could not recommend Alpaca and Rodrigo & Timoteo more!!

We had an amazing time on the Salkantay trek! Our guide, Rodrigo, and the rest of the staff were awesome - so helpful and knowledgeable. I was especially grateful that they could accommodate my vegan diet for every meal. The altitude was rough but so worth it for the experience. We absolutely loved Machu Picchu at the end! Tupananchiskama :)

This was a very well organized adventure along the inka trail for 5D/4N. The porters were very friendly and professional. Excellent meals were provided by “don Pedro”, and I am still amazed by how he was able to provide so much variety on the side of a mountain for 4 days. Alex, our guide, was the just the best! He was sm excellent guide, but even better person - so kind, and went above and beyond at every corner.
