What people love about Andes Mountains Tours
Wonderful tour guide & tour company with excellent service & great Peru experience! Loved that TreXeperience is a tour agency that supported the local community with local campsites, drivers, tour guides, horsemen, chefs. My tour guide (Hubert) is kind, helpfu, joyfull and informative throughout the entire trek and tour experience. He guided us well through the trek, shared the rich history, culture, food and local information about Peru and the Incan civilisation. He assisted me greatly from the briefing, to the trek, Machu Picchu and to the train & car back to my Cusco accommodation. The assistant chef (Manuel) and head chef (Lorenzo) were amazing in preparing delicious meals (International meals, Peru meals) and constantly delighted us with their surprises (prepared with minimal resources)! Highlight was the Peru cooking preparation of pachamanca (superb food for our lunch). Appreciate their sincerity and warmth in providing yummy meals for us to push us through the trek. Loved that the team ensured that our tents, sleeping bags, blankets were all set up as we arrived at our campsite every night.

"Overall my tour was a great experience, mostly due to my amazing guide Yamila (I highly recommend finding out when Yamila is doing the tour and book then!) Our two cooks Sergio and Paulina were phenomenal as well. I booked the refugio but it was full so I ended up in a tent which was fine as the tent was spacious and the sleeping bag was very warm (plus you have more privacy in a tent). I will caution people to not get so hung up on the schedule, as things like weather can change very quickly and the guides might adjust the schedule to make the most of your time in Patagonia. I would recommend this tour if you’re adventurous, fit, and most importantly flexible. If you’re all of these things you will not regret your time on this tour.

"An extremely well organised tour. Our guide Monica was an amazing guide. Monica went out of her way to make the trip safe, enjoyable and comfortable. Our chef Vidal made an amazing variety and quality of meals each day. Our chief porter Juan did a great job organising the porters. Katy in the office was good to deal with in the lead up to the hike. I highly recommend the 4 day Inka trail hike. We had 14 porters carrying 20kg each for the 6 paid customers and the attention to detail was awesome. The Inka ruins we saw along the way and MachuPicchu was a once in a lifetime opportunity.

Best places to start your Andes Mountains tour

Discover Andes Mountains tours for every budget
For budget-conscious Andean explorers, several well-rated tours stand out for their excellent value. Popular routes combine Lima's colonial center with Cusco's ancient sites and also Puno's floating islands. These typically run 7-10 days with early morning starts and full days of activities. Our travelers particularly praise the guides' knowledge and enthusiasm, even with challenging 3am wake-up calls for Rainbow Mountain treks. Budget tours often include practical touches like domestic flights between major cities, comfortable 3-star hotels and guided visits to places like the Maras salt ponds. Many feature unique experiences such as sandboarding in Huacachina's desert oasis and watching sea lions at the Ballestas Islands. The reviews consistently mention great value for money, especially when factoring in included meals and transportation.
The best luxury tours in the Andes really focus on getting the details right. You'll stay in carefully chosen 4-5 star hotels, often in converted historic mansions with excellent restaurants and also prime locations. Our clients love having private transfers throughout and the freedom to shape their days - like adding a relaxing massage after hiking or arranging an intimate pisco tasting session. The cultural experiences feel more personal too; you might learn traditional weaving in Chinchero then enjoy lunch at a high-end organic restaurant. Many tours include nice touches like having archaeological sites to yourself early morning or sipping cocktails as the sun sets over Cusco's main plaza.

Demographics
Looking at what our guests tell us, solo travelers really connect with the Machu Picchu tour. The local guides make everyone feel part of the group right away - you'll learn traditional recipes in Lima's markets and discover Cusco's trading history with people who know every corner of these places. There's also this excellent route through Peru and Bolivia where you'll explore Lake Titicaca's reed islands and trek around Cusco with other independent travelers. The guides are really good at helping you adjust to the altitude step by step. A lot of our solo guests go for tours that mix Amazon and Inca Trail experiences - you'll paddle through jungle rivers to remote lodges, head out at night to spot wildlife and walk ancient stone paths with your new travel friends. The food's amazing too - the trail cooks somehow create proper feasts that keep you going through the tough hiking days.
The Salkantay Trek is a real physical challenge that younger travelers absolutely love - you'll camp at nearly 4,000 meters and wake up to fresh coffee brought right to your tent. We've got another popular route that combines Ecuador's misty forests with rapids on Amazon rivers. There's this crazy swing in Baños called the "End of the World", plus you'll bike past waterfalls and explore natural oil paths on foot. Over in Patagonia, the W Trek through Torres del Paine is getting great feedback - expect glacier crossings on swaying bridges, steep climbs to incredible lookouts and camping in genuine wilderness. The guides know exactly how to keep spirits high during long hikes and also create this great social vibe when everyone gathers around the fire at night.
