Ótima experiência – A tierra Biru me recepcionou muito bem no aeroporto. Em todos os momentos me tratou muito bem. Os guias falavam espanhol bem devagar, então era possível entender tudo, mesmo para… read more quem só fala português. Sempre respondiam minhas mensagens rápido. Posso dizer que foi uma boa escolha e que indicaria para meus amigos. Inclusive me buscavam no hotel em que estava e me deram dicas para que eu não ficasse em lugares perigosos ou que não fossem confiáveis.

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.
