I went on the Inca trail for 4 days and was guided by Edgar Cardenas, who is not only a great guide but a knowledgeable and passionate person that really… read more made the experience perfect. I felt very comfortable within the trip and felt I could trust him as well as his team of porters that worked incredibly hard to provide a comfortable and positive environment, including the chef that provided incredible food too. The trail alongside Edgar will definitely be a memory I will hold forever and cannot thank him enough for being such an amazing guide. I would highly recommend Tierra Biru Expeditions.
