We booked the 2-Day Short Inca trail - Machu Picchu. As it wasn't high season yet, we were the only two people booked into the tour and so we ended up on a private tour which was awesome!
Our tour guide was Jorge who was such a legend! He taught us so much about the history and was always up for a chat along the way. Hiking in the high altitude was pretty hard and he always knew when we needed a break to catch our breath. He also made sure we got so many photo opportunities.
The hike was tough at times but it was so rewarding to see that view at the top of of Sungate at the end of the day. It was great to be able to have a rest in the the town and come back the following day to for a tour through the citadel.
Highly recommend Happy Gringos!!

Trips that you will remember!
We have booked in advance to visit the best circuit that is most in demand in Machu Picchu that Happy Gringo recommended to us and we liked circuit 1.
Communication was very important as it gave us very clear information. One day before the tour we went to their office where they gave us the orientation and the tour tickets.
We loved the sacred valley tour with connection to Machu Picchu and we want to thank you for all the service you provided us.
A thousand thanks to our guide Mauro and the Gringo Tours agency!

I recently took a 2-day Inca Trail tour to Machu Picchu, and it was an outstanding experience tailored just for me.
Transport and accommodation were well-organized, making the trip hassle-free. The standout, however, was my guide, Ruben. As a native with deep Inca heritage knowledge, he provided insightful information about the trail and its history. His passion and expertise made the journey educational and unforgettable.
I highly recommend this tour, especially with Ruben as your guide. It's worth every penny for a personalized Inca Trail adventure.

My partner and I took the 2-day Inca Trail tour, and it was nothing short of magical. Every twist and turn held thing to remember for life with each step.
When we booked the tour, we were worried that the walk might be too heavy or tiring because of the altitude, but the Happy Gringo team made the entire journey enjoyable and easy.
We like to thank the Happy Gringo Tours team for their guidance and making this experience unforgettable. I sincerely recommend them <3! We were some really happy gringos :)
