Adventure to the mountain of 7 colors - Everything spectacular. The schedule was very well planned and the guide Omar was always with us. The walk is hard but it is worth getting there and having that spectacular view. Totally recommended infocusco, they are with you before, during and after the tour. The maximum.

Impeccable InfoCusco service through its representative Vanessa Canto. 100% recommendable - An excursion as impressive as it was demanding, although the InfoCusco guide made the experience very easy.

Excellent service, I strongly recommend it - I actually did 6 tours with InfoCusco and it was very pleasant and professional attention. I went from Mexico and before arriving they offered me a series of alternatives, which when I arrived, were finalized and recommended to me in such a way that I would acclimatize to Cusco. Vanessa Ccanto was the one who assisted me, and believe me, she was a very good executive and an excellent human being. Always ready to provide me with attention, support and be aware of my stay. Likewise, she supported me with Machu Picchu, she was responsible for making one of my great dreams come true in a magical and exceptional way, she took care of each of the details and I didn't have to worry about anything. Regarding prices, I can say that before going I quoted with some other agencies, and InfoCusco's competitiveness was better. I greatly appreciate the attention provided.

An experience to live it - We booked our excursion to this beautiful mountain on our trip to Cusco, we had already seen the Machupicchu so it was difficult to be impressed with anything else, which we achieved thanks to this magnificent agency but even more thanks to our guide Will (big Will!) a person with a great human quality, we were a group of 7 so we did a private tour, to start the price is nothing crazy as I consider that an excursion of this nature has to be made with a guide trained in first aid and knowledgeable of the area, as problems can arise for the height, in fact we crossed with people who went on their own or worse, that their guides had left behind and were going to hardly, of course we gave them a hand. Another thing I want to emphasize is that many people go to other agencies because they are cheaper and supposedly offer the same, please, this agency puts you a responsible driver and a transport in good condition, among other details believe me, other agencies do not take into account and safety at least for me, is the first thing, The day before the tour there is a small meeting with the guide to point out all the important things to take and to keep in mind, on the day of the tour we left very early, at 3 am, this is important, because if you leave something later, you are more likely to cross there with many other groups and when you get upstairs this crowded, fortunately we were able to get good shots and when it came down the viewpoint was already full. The hike was hard but enjoyable, Will told us very interesting things about the culture of the Andean villages, we really learned more in this excursion than in all the other together, so we were getting upstairs very tired but very happy and all together as a team helping us at all times, it was something special and memorable. If we had some discomfort due to altitude sickness, but nothing serious, you have to take the necessary precautions and go at your own pace enjoying the spectacular scenery. I highly recommend visiting this mountain and above all do it with a serious and efficient agency like this.

Survive Inca trek with info Cusco excellent service to completion - Surviving inca classic trek with arthritic knee problems was a great adventure with the excellent service of info Cusco tours and hotels a local company. Elvis our guide was efficient. He was professional. He was briefing us in detail every part of the way of the trail. He was patient and he understands our pace of walking. His timing was right making sure we get to the campsite before dark. We learned a lot from him about history of the Inka empire, the ruins, and the flora and fauna of the Inka trail. The trail has varied flowers, plants, and animals to see. Elvis helped us identify them. He can be funny at times and encouraging when we needed a little push. We were comfortable having him as our guide and that made the difference. Elvin our mountain trek chef culinary was impressive. Presentation of food was a show of art to the last meal. We appreciate the variation of food and options provided but carrying it all to mountains is backbreaking. Elvin culinary skills and preparedness made eating on the Inka trail memorable. We miss his gourmet cooking already. I recommend him to any restauranteur without hesitation. The porters are our real heroes of of theInka trail and in our trek. They are the carriers of our loads that makes everything possible in the mountains to survive. They are ver hardworking, eager to help, and still wear smiles at the end of the day. We have great respect for what the porters endure to make gruelling Inka trek a lifetime memorable experience. Salute to all porters. They are worth and deserving of tips at the end of their task. Another good service we like about info Cusco tour is the fluid transfer of information from their office to hotels, drivers, tranfers and little details to make trek to completion efficient saving time and money. Not to forget drivers were helpful.

The best choice for doing the Inca trail - We were so lucky to have find Info Cusco.. they answer quickly and in detail our questions. We were the first group of the season 2017, we were around 26 people including guides porters and guides. Santos and Henry, our local guides were dedicated to us 24 hr. They had great stories about the trail, the Incas and lessons about life. The Cooker, Epifanio, was an artist.. With his team, they prepared for us typical Peruvian dishes, all decorated with the most exquisite figures made from apple, carrots, etc. The last day, was a special dessert that I´m not going to tell you, is a surprise that you need to discover. Definitely, choosing Info Cusco was a great decision. it made the Inca Trail the most exiting experience I ever had doing a trail

The agency that you are looking for. - This is the agency that you are looking for. The service is far from great, it's amazing. Vanessa is A+++ she will take care of everything during the reservation, ask anything she will respond quickly with the right answer. I bother her since January to probably the day before arriving to Cusco (September). I did the classic inca trail plus two more guide tours; City tour and Valle Sagrado, I do recommend both. Every day in the morning was someone at my Hotel (Loreto Boutique; stay here you will love it) waiting for me to guide me to the meet spot for the tour. The Inca Trail, the only thing I am going to say (not spoiled) is that you will be treated like a King and Queen. Obviously you have to walk and do some effort to meet the goals every day and the restroom probably are messy for you but there is something special that you will love apart of the trail and the views. Trust me you will love to go with this agency, just trust me you will remember during your Inca Trail. This agency is operated by locals it means they know what they are doing. Forget about the others ones this is what you are looking for. Trust me.

Amazing experience at an affordable price - My mom and I used InfoCusco to hike for 4 days on the Inca Trail ending at Machu Picchu and it was an incredible experience! One of the best things we liked about the company is that they keep their groups small. We noticed other guides with 15-20 clients and they were spread out all over the trail. However, there was only 6 of us in our group so we stuck together and cheered each other on when the climb got tough. It was much more fun to have that kind of support. The food was also amazing! Every meal seemed to have 3 courses and each plate was delicious. And our guide was outstanding. He would give us background on every ruin we passed, including Machu Picchu. When you look at everything you're getting for the price this company charges, it is a bargain! Friends of mine recommended this company to me and I would recommend using them as well, especially if you can get Elvis as your guide.
