The climate in our country is very variant and does not consider the normal 4 seasons. Here, in just one day we can see all of the seasons! And this is why we recommend our visitors to be prepared for any occasion, either for rain or sunny days.
A very important factor which alter our world is global warming, which has evolved into a high risky contributor due to the glaciers melting in Peruvian Andes, and it also affect the normal development of our weather.
Nonetheless, something that is very marked in our country and in some cities here in the Andes is that we only have 2 main seasons during the year:
Dry Season: We consider the dry season from the end of April until the end of September, in this period the first rains will start. For this reason, this is the best time to visit our region and our amazing Machu Picchu and also avoid any inconveniences.
Rainy Season: This season starts on October until the end of April approximately, so during this time it is advised to all of our visitors to pack their belongings into waterproof bags, as in our region it can be sunny the first 2 hours and then have a heavy rain.
We know that there are extreme climates worldwide, but this must not stop us from our longing and desire to explore the world, to discover marvelous cultures and interact with them. Be welcomed to Perú and Machu Picchu.
This mountain is located inside Machu Picchu Archaeological Park, which is located at 300 meters more than Machu Picchu Inca Citadel; here it takes approximately just 45 minutes hiking up and other 45 minutes hiking down. This Mountain conserves some archaeological remains as the Moon Temple and other precincts that are interconnected with authentic trails, steps, tunnels and natural formatted caves which made the view more interesting. Without any doubt, this is one of the best attractions of Machu Picchu; the Huayna Picchu Mountain offers a 360 grades view and a stunning view of Machu Picchu Inca Citadel, Machu Picchu
Mountain and the famous Sun Gate (Inti Punku). Currently our government through Ministry of Culture, maintain the visitors income controlled per day, only 400 tickets are offered per day and divided in 2 groups of 200 each.

We had an incident at the Peru airport, requiring many itinerary changes. Elvis was very helpful the entire way, helping us to make changes to trains, hotels, and so on. It made our situation much less stressful.
Tour wise, Elvis was fantastic. He took care of everything, so we had nothing to worry about. He was also very knowledgeable about Incan history, which made for great learning.
If I had to nitpick, the food choices were not fantastic. But it did not reduce the experience of the tour too much. Overall, I would highly recommend Kenko Adventures!

We did 2 excursions with Kenko Adventures:
- 2 day Ica Trail hike (1 day hike from KM104 with night in Aguas Caliente, visit to Machu Picchu and return via Vistadome train)
- Rainbow Mountain
Inca trail: excellent
Guide: Elvis
The hike is fairly demanding. Elvis paced us very well, allowing some to go a bit faster while keeping the group together. He is very knowldgeable, speaks english very well and all around pleasant. Elvis took pictures for us and helped in anyway he could. We arrived at Machu Picchu at 4:15pm when all the other visitors had left and the view was excellent. The hotel in Aguas Calientes was fine and so was dinner. Next day: we went back up to Machu Picchu and Elvis gave us a guided tour which was very informative. By that time, other visitors were pouring in. We went up Wayna Picchu; fairly arduous hike again. Elvis was helpful every step of the way. We returned, had lunch and returned to Ollantaytambo by train and from Ollantaytambo to Cusco by minibus.
Overall: excellent excursion. I strongly recommend Kenko Adevnture and Elvis
Painted Mountains:
Early departure for a nearly 3 hr drive to the "base" at 15k feet (breakfast included along the way). The road is quite nice but once we left the main road and towards the Painted Mountains, we crossed interesting villages along the way.
Our guide was Grober. Once we arrived at the "base" we found out that altitude was quite a challenge as we needed to walk up to over 16,5k ft elevation.
Grober helped secure horses for us to do most of the walk - leaving only the final climb to be done by foot. He helped with pictures, navigating the crowds and pacing us throughout the day. He also explained about local culture and archeology of the site. We returned after 1:30pm, stopped for lunch (included) and back to Cusco.
Overall: excellent day. Grober was great all around.
