    Me encantó el trek La comida muy saludable y deliciosa siempre con opción vegetariana El guía Vicente nos enseñó mucho acerca de la cultura Inca y se portó muy bien en todo el trek muy profesional y se le nota el amor por su cultura y por Machupicchu Los porteros siempre atentos y todo lo armaban rápido Fue muy agradable llegar de caminar por horas y tener comida caliente y carpas armadas sin mover un dedo Al llegar a Machupicchu fue un sueño cumplido Recomiendo éste trek con ésta empresa a cualquiera que esté interesado de verdad vale la pena! Tuve una hermosa experiencia en mi trek a Machupicchu me sentí tratada como una reina!

    Junior was an absolutely brilliant and helpful guide -very knowledgeable and his organisational skills excellent. He is a really nice guy as well and asset to Bamber. The chef and porters were also great as was the group dynamics-a truly enriching experience overall. Nick Black

    I did a 4 day / 3 night trek with Bamba. The Inca Trail was washed out because of rain so they offered me an alternate route (Inca Quarry trek) which was fantastic. I particularly liked it because of the lack of people. On day 2, we didn’t see anyone hiking. Diego was our guide and this guy is the real deal. I started peppering him with questions as soon as the trek started to test his Inca knowledge. I had read one book (last days of the Incas) before the trip and so I was obviously now an Inca expert. Turns out, Diego is a human encyclopedia when it comes to Inca history, Andean plants and animals, and many other subjects. He made the trek highly informative and comfortable for our group - always making sure we had everything we needed while hiking and once we reached camp. Can’t recommend him enough. Our chef, Victór, deserves a separate review altogether. That guy is fantastic and made us feel like we were dining in a 5 star restaurant while in the middle of the mountains. Only reason for 4 / 5 stars is because my temporary guide (not Diego) never showed up at the Machu Picchu checkpoint after I finished Huayna Picchu. I called Bamba and they sorted it out eventually, but I had to start 1 hour late.
