EXCELENTE A base de 80 reseñas Idamar2024-04-01Verificada Great tour company I used go Xplore peru (Humberto) for organising my trip to MachuPicchu. Absolutely recommendedI arrived in Cusco without prior reservation. Not ideal due to high season. I tried 5 agencies. NONE of these agencies were able to help with a one day tour. Luckily I meet Humberto. He made some phone calls and arranged the 1 day trip. A trip others have said impossible. I was almost hesitant to believe him. He made it happen. He speaks fluently English Joshua H2024-03-22Verificada Very good The travel advisor Humberto was very competent and went to great lengths to explain the trip. The trip to Salkantay itself also exceeded my expectations. Diego Pasiche2023-11-16Verificada Security and Trust guaranteed Humberto always gives you the facilities and options to make your trip the best. It is the second time we have made the trip with him and always improving.... Humberto and his agency guarantee you security and confidence. Grace Stevens2023-07-20Verificada Would recommend this for ease! We were recommended to book via Humberto for a package deal! It was certainly nice not needing to worry as much about where to be and when! We booked months in advance and when we got to Cusco met with Humberto who explained everything. We did Machu Picchu, Rainbow Mountain and the Amazon Trip. I would recommend all of them! Very professional!
