Inca Trail Tour & Trip Reviews

One of the best experiences of my life. Peru’s culture and sites were absolutely amazing. The tour director made the trip super stress free and I made friends for life. EF was amazing the whole time from start to finish. Already booked my next trip to Croatia with them!!

Peru encompassed is a great trip to see all the best bits of Peru. Very well organised and I felt enough time to see everything with maybe an extra day in Arequipa as could have spent more time there. The quarry trail was excellent and doable for someone with moderate fitness. Loved the homestays, both hosts were perfect and very hospitable. All accommodation was good. A very well organised trip and Enrique our tour leader was the best guide I’ve had on any trip. Also the extra guides we had in each place were fantastic and very knowledgeable of their area. Would definitely recommend this trip to anyone wanting to see the best bits of Peru.

If you have 3 weeks time for travel I think this trip is a really good option to see all The diversity of the country and culture . Be prepare for the altitude and and if you planned to do the hike this trip is perfect because gave you few days in altitude cities to acclimatize, having a local Leader make u understand better the life style and culture of the people along the trip . Highly recommended it

The Peru Encompassed Trip was amazing: the Inca trail to Macchu Pichu was simply stunning, rainbow mountain was amazing, the home stays were an unexpected highlight, & our guide William made our Peru trip incredibly special. I would thoroughly recommend this trip! Tiring but totally worth it!!

I would highly recommend the Peru Encompassed trip. It was one of my most memorable trips I’ve encountered with a fantastic mix of cultural experiences and personal achievements completing the 4 day original Inca trail. Definitely challenging but 100 percent worth it and big tip doing some pre-training will make it more pleasant for you.

This is an absolutely fantastic introduction to Peru. The trip is busy, but lets you visit so many of the main sites of Peru. It also allows a great balance of free days and those with activities. There's quite a bit of travel, but that's all part of the adventure. There's a great balance of cultural activities and the tour leaders are fantastic. The Inca Trail was a definite highlight for me. The views are amazing, and the trip is well organised to help you get used to the higher altitude. This trip is well worth it!

This was the most incredible trip! I loved learning about and experiencing the local culture during the homestays. Getting to Machu Picchu after 4 days of hiking was exhilarating, physically and mentally challenging and fun. The amazon was incredible and saw a lot of wildlife in their natural habitats, this was a highlight. Our tour leader Tomas was a great support. Would do it again in a heartbeat!

Wow, this tour really did encompass an excellent experience of all that Peru has to offer! I enjoyed learning about the history, culture, and cuisine of this beautiful country. The people are very friendly. From the time I booked this trip until the last day of the tour, I have been impressed with how well organized this trip has been.

This tour is jam-packed with so many things to see and do. The Inca Trail is a massive highlight, but be prepared for some arduous hiking - get some exercise in before you go. Lots of early starts, long distances and cold mornings reward you with an adventure of a lifetime. Would highly recommend this tour. Out Intrepid leader Giscard was the best!

The Peru Encompassed Trip was from A to Z an excellent journey and everything was perfect organised. We had the best group and an excellent tour guide. The activities were awesome, it was so much fun. Highlight of course was the Quarry Trail with Machu Picchu and for me also the Amazon Rainforest. Would absolutely recommend this trip!

It was an amazing trip full of highlights and great things to discover and learn about Peru and the Peruvians and their ancestors (Incas and earlier). I really loved Peru and I surely will return. The itinerary, despite everything was perfectly organised, was so packed, that there was little room for exploring things by our self or doing the optional actives. The trip got a bit more expensive than I thought due to expensive restaurants we got recommended or went for with the group.

What an amazing adventure I’ve just had with Intripid did Peru Encompassed saw so much of south Peru to fit it all in you needed to be on the go but did have a few free days to relax and enjoy the cities , the whole trip was so very well Organised and had a fabulous caring and extremely knowledgable guide Daniel Ramos

Thoroughly enjoyable trip! Wonderful, interesting, friendly place to visit. Our tour leader could not be faulted. Expect to be very well fed on the inca trail, indeed throughout the whole of Peru! I would recommend checking up on visa's before you go even if you are only transiting through an airport. Also maybe budget more for tipping then you first thought, it does seem to be alot. Make sure you leave a little room for souvenirs too, there is some incredible things to treat yourself too. I don't feel Peru encompassed should be given a four star physical rating, other than the inca trail, while full on, it does not require any fitness. Oh and brush up on the Spanish! A superb trip! No regrets!!!

You will be amazed by the diversity of the country and your day to day activities each detail is planned to ensure an unforgettable life experience catering for altitude and the impacts. This is a great experience for people who like to experience different cultures

Peru was amazing. This trip gives a really great view of the culture and history of the country, with lots of different types of activity. It also gives plenty of time to get used to altitude before the Inca trail.
