AMAZING. The ticket they propose is THE VERY BEST, you get access to the main part where few people have access to. Therefore there is plenty of space for you and pics! After you also have access to the best spot for pictures with NO ONE around. The other tickets people are parked down you and get to queue + less amazing view

Very good. Our guide, Franco, was very good. He met us for a briefing the evening before. This was very helpful. He met us at our hotel to begin the tour. He was very helpful. We are in our 70's and need to walk a bit slower. He helped a lot. We really enjoyed the Machu Picchu site. Outstanding.

Moving around in high altitude was a challenge for some of us, but our guide made sure we all has time to catch our breaths. The experience was quite overwhelming, and the staff made it all extra special. Vendors were happy for our business, but they were not pushy nor over-aggressive in their quest for a sale.
