I have no words to express my gratitude to the whole crew of Machu Picchu Travel World who were exceptionally amazing on this tour. All logistics were taken care of and the guide service was second to none. I totally reccomend them.

Hilda and her crew were very helpful and informative. I visited the Amazon jungle for three days and those were the best three days of my trip to Peru. Everything was carefully organised by them. It was a flawless trip. I can totally recommend them.
