Probably the most memorable experience I will ever have! The Machu Picchu and the Huayna Picchu mountains are an incredible, and learning about the rich history that surrounds Machu Picchu and the Quechua culture was fantastic. The citadel itself is amazing, and Mauro was an excellent guide explaining how and why it had been built that way. Transportation was a bit of a hassle, but the Sunrise Peru Trek company made it so much easier by arranging everything. I would encourage one and all to go if they can.

Excellent way to visit Machu Picchu without problems, for free. Our guide Henrry was very helpful and happy to answer any questions we had. There were no strenuous hikes, but I was still able to enjoy this magical place. Thanks for all organization to Sunrise Peru Trek Company; it’s highly recommendable.

Our guide Marco and his companions from Sunrise Peru Trek did an outstanding job of providing us with a memorable experience. Punctual pick up, step by step guide on our trips to Machu Pichu and Amazon Jungle. Once there, Marco guided us through a much less crowded route with spectacular views, provided us with informative and knowledgeable historical facts about the Incas and the ruins. Without doubt an unforgettable experience. Thank you, Marco.

This was the best tour I have ever been on. Rosario was a wonderful tour guide who added personal touches during the short hike to Machu Picchu. Do not hesitate to book this trip with Sunrise Peru Trek. I promise you will not regret. Thanks, Rosario for a wonderful trip.

Sep 2022 Communication with the company was very good. They answered my questions in a timely manner. Henry was my guide for Machu Picchu. He assisted me when I arrived to have the hotel personnel get me. He is extremely knowledge about MP, the Incas, and surrounding area. He also suggested various Peruvian cuisines. One of those cuisines is guinea pig, which he loves. For that alone, he's the best tour guide ever. Highly recommended.

The travel agency was very nice to us. Upon our arrival in Cusco we met Henrry Chauca, our main tour guide, who gave us a little present for our honeymoon. Henrry is a really caring, friendly and likable person who always took care of us. He often checked in with us via WhatsApp to make sure we were OK. He gave us some useful heads up and advise on how to deal with the altitude and gave us recommendations where to eat authentic local food.
