I'm not one to give opinions unless they earn it. And Kenko Adventures earned it with their excellent treatment and service. Rudy, my guide to Machu Pichu, as well as Davids guide to the Mountain of 7 Colors, treated me like family. Always attentive and very informative with data and history of the places. Enjoy spectacular views, we even witnessed a divorce going down Vinicunca lol Davids knows what I mean.

Kenko adventures was absolutely fantastic for any Spanish or English speaker. We had Elvis as our guide and he was unreal! I spoke to him a few weeks prior to our trip about planning a trip and logistics. He was able to understand our situation and design a plan for us that went flawlessly. Not only was the Machu Picchu experience amazing but we had a free day in Cusco which Elvis was able to plan a one day experience to "rainbow mountain". Another great hike that shows a different side of the andes mountain range.

His knowledge and care for detail was tremendous to be around and learn from. If you are planning to come to Cusco and want to get a top quality, small group feel, choose Kenko and ask specifically for Elvis.

There are other groups and guides to choose from but while walking around Machu Picchu, I felt incredibly grateful to have Elvis and his knowledge. Truly passionate about sharing history, stories and knowledge of Peru.

We had an incredible experience hiking the Inca trail with our guide Elvin during our Machu Picchu adventure. Everything was impeccably organized, and Elvin's wealth of experience truly shone as he guided us through the unknown trail. His insights into the history of Machu Picchu were captivating, and the Quinoa meal he provided for lunch was exceptional. This experience will stay with me forever. Many thanks to Kenko for their exceptional service.

What a great experience. Highlight of the trip to Peru. Kenko adventures took care of everything - from private transfer to the train station, buying our train tickets, providing a delicious lunch and snacks, and making sure we returned to our hotel safely.
Our tour guide was Victor who was excellent. He kept a good pace, allowing time to stop for rest and stop for pictures. He was extremely knowledgable about Peru, Incan history, and Machu Picchu. I really enjoyed that Victor was able to provide a lot of knowledge but also allowed my friends and I to just enjoy the hike and scenery without feeling the need to constantly engage. There were times where the hike was challenging but overall the 1 day short inca trail is great for travelers who are short on time or can't do the full inca trail.
Overall, Kenko Adventures was a great experience. Highly recommend this!

Amazing tour, once in a lifetime experience!!!!!
Our tour guide was Elvis and he is the best. He is excellent in his job and he was taking good care of us throughout the Inca trail while he was explaining everything. He has deep knowledge of his field. When we arrived in Machu Picchu he explained us everything about the place and the history and we learned many things about Incas civilization.
The views while we were hiking Inca trail are absolutely amazing. Totally recommend this tour and kenko adventure!!!
It was PERFECT!!

Booking the one day Inca trail hike + Machu Picchu experience with Kenko was the right choice. All the pickups and transfers were seamless and clear, Kenko was kind enough to provide a pickup from the airport to our accommodations even though our hike was only a few days later.
Our guide Victor was very experienced, knowledgeable and a great fun to be with. He knew how to keep a good pace, when to give breaks while sharing interesting facts about Peruvian flora and fauna, and gave us tips on food and culture. At Machu Picchu, he was a literal walking library of information about the history from pre-Inca times, Inca times to today. He was very patient with our numerous questions and whenever we stopped to snap photos.
If you aren't sure about full Inca hike, this one day Inca hike is a very good alternative. And if you are doing it, then Kenko is an awesome choice.

AMAZING! Everything is taken care of from start to finish. Elvis the owner spoke with us the day before to explain the trip & talk through any questions we had. All pick ups, transfers, tickets & lunch was provided. The 1-day hike is perfect if you want the Inca trail experience but you're too short on time for the full trek. Our guide Victor truely made this a dream come true for us, he was good fun to spend the day with, very knowledgeable on Machu Picchu history, spoke excellent english...and can even help you get that 'insta worthy' snap. I couldn't rate this experience more highly - book your ticket, you won't regret it!!

I am so glad that my cousin booked with Kenko Adventures for our 4 day Inca Trail excursion. I had no idea what to expect, except she said they were a local company with good reviews. From start to finish, the attention to detail was impressive. They provided us with pre-trip information which was extremely helpful. Once we reached Cusco, the pre-hike meeting was well informed and prepared gradually for each step of the journey. As we started the hike, the tour guide Victor (whom I highly recommend you request) was extremely knowledgeable and so passionate about his heritage, which permeated in "history time" lessons. He also was so prepared, carrying an portable oxygen tank and having trekked the Inca Trail over 700 times in almost 20 years, he was extremely experienced. Finally, but not last, the food and service. I was expecting basic camping food; I was wrong... Celsin was our chef and the team of porters were extremely capable and impressive/delicious meals. He made culinary dishes which I was surprised were not made in a high end restaurant. The porters were incredible and helpful. They were so worried about us one day that they brought sandwiches and tea since we were slow/late for dinner. I saw other larger groups with one or two guides for 16 hikers, and I loved our small private group. The intimate group environment, plus the local company with gourmet meals an experienced tour guide in Victor is a combination for success.

Elvis and Deivis accompanied us during the route. It was great to have them as guides! We learned a lot and the hard Inca trail became light at our side. They told us everything in great detail and with a great sense of humor.
Apart from that, we also visited the salt flats, Moray among other places. All spectacular, especially having someone to tell us all the details.
Great and very fun experience!

This tour was great! We had a group of 4 and Victor was our tour guide. He was professional, so knowledgable, and we had a wonderful time!! We loved our "history lessons" when he would teach us about the culture and history behind Machu Picchu. This tour was not only a great hike (and workout), but so customizable to your needs--you can hike faster or slower and Victor will tailor your tour to your needs. Would 100% recommend.
