View Signature Travels Reviews 

Where do we start! What a fantastic 14 days under the expert guidance and organisation of VIEW Signature Travels. Doris, our pretravel organiser, was an absolute gem, always ready to offer helpful suggestions and recommendations and put together an awesome agenda for us. We were also advised to spend a couple of days in Cusco to acclimatise. Very sensible advice and as a result we experienced no issues with the altitude once our hike commenced. We were met (thank you Ronald, our Cusco host and Adrian Jimenez, our expert guide) on the 20th to be briefed and to be handed our duffel bags, rain covers and ponchos. Good quality kit and they certainly did the trick on the hike.

On the 22nd we were met at our hotel at 5am by Ronaldo and Adrian and transferred to the start of our hike, picking up Yhon (assistant guide and site co-ordinator) on the way. We then met the whole team at the start of our hike. What a team they were! Marianela (our travelling Masseuse), Nemesio (Chef), Sergio (Assistant Chef), Adolfo (Waiter), Anastacio, Tiburcio & Hermenegildo (our three site helpers) and Hener and his four horseman (and we must not forget their 15 mules!).

For 9 days we were expertly guided by Adrian and Yhon. We trekked in wilderness. For the first seven days we rarely met another human, just a few mules! Adrian and Yhon were always on hand to point out fantastic aspects of our surroundings, flowers, plants and wildlife. We quickly became bird-watchers! On some of the tough climbs they were always by our side encouraging us and at the same time gave us plenty of space to explore alone. Where the terrain became challenging, they always made sure of our safety. These guys know their stuff and we truly enjoyed their company.

At the end of each day, after a hot shower, Marianela was always there for us with an invigorating massage. So good that our limbs never felt tired and we were always in great shape for the next day’s hike! Food – OMG, wonderful! How Nemesio and Segio put together such beautifully presented and delicious meals in the middle of nowhere, I have no idea. Breakfast was a feast. Lunch was a feast. Dinner was a feast! All served by our lovely waiter, Adolfo, who had a constant smile on his face, even at 4am when he would wake us with hot coffee brought to our tent! The site helpers (Anastacio, Tiburcio & Hermenegildo) set up a beautiful tent for us (I should say tents!) with some wonderful soft furnishings and bed displays. We were in luxurious heaven! Nothing was too much trouble. Hats off to Hener and his team of horsemen. How they managed to transport all the equipment along some challenging paths, only they know. Lovely people.

The 9 day hike was truly magical. Challenging but extremely rewarding. Yet, we laughed a lot. It was so much fun. Thank you VIEW, Adrian and your team. It was then off to the Amazon for 5 days at the Tambopata Research Centre. It was sad to say goodbye to Adrian and our trekking team but we were safely transferred to our Amazon Jungle Team where our guide, Luiz, took us on 5 days of exploration of jungle, birds, monkeys, porcupines, tarantulas (!) and much else … but alas, no jaguars.

We have many fond memories. Memories that will live with us for years to come. Thank You VIEW Signature Travels and Tambopata Research Centre. Andre & Ann XX

Best tour ever! We had such a wonderful time on this trek plus the 2 days in Cusco/Sacred Valley with View!! If you want the top of the line, go with this company. They did not miss a single detail and everything was absolutely perfect. It started with the custom itinerary and booking with Doris and it got better from there. I've never seen a guide with such knowledge on everything from the flora and fauna to the history of Peru and the Incas/Spanish. He was wonderful! All the staff (17 porters, head chef, sous chef, massage therapist, etc) were so professional, friendly and good at their jobs. It was amazing! We loved every second from the incredible views to the surprise pisco sours on the trail. Delicious food, wonderful presentation, luxurious tents, clean toilet, hot shower---glamping at its best!! You will not be disappointed with View Peru!

Our five day trek on the Inca trail up to Manchu Picchu was amazing and bucket list worthy. From the initial planning 8 months earlier with the help of tour travel specialist Doris, the coordinated transfers and domestic flights, pre trek briefing and then the 'handheld' hike itself...it was a dream! Our guides; head guide Tomas, assistant guides Wildar and Ebber, were constantly attentive, informative and made us feel confident and cared for each step of the way. The shower at the end of each day was a luxury and our massage therapist Aydee was fantasitc! The chef Celio, su chef Matin provided first class gourmet meals, our server Abrahim was competent and constantly attentive. The 17 porters who carried all our baggage, cooking/shower/bathroom/sleeping tents, water, cooking equipment etc were beyond incredible! This is an experience and trip of a lifetime. Beyond highly recommend!

My husband and I just completed the Supreme Luxury 5-Day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu with View Signature Travels, and it truly was the trip of a lifetime. Doris, our Senior Travel Specialist, was incredibly responsive and supportive from our first questions through finalizing the itinerary, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish. Our local host, Ronald, also took exceptional care of us throughout the journey.
Our guide, Sebastian, and assistant guide, Eber, were with us every step of the way, making us feel safe, comfortable, and fully immersed in the experience. Sebastian’s deep knowledge of the Inca Trail, Peruvian culture, and local flora and fauna added so much to the trek, while Eber even turned us into bird watchers along the way!
What truly set View Signature apart was the team’s ability to deliver outstanding cuisine, service, and accommodations while trekking alongside us. The porters were incredible, and every detail was thoughtfully handled, making each day more memorable than the last.
We are forever grateful to Marialnela, Fausto, Ysidro, Mauro, Nicasio, Santiago, Meliton, Victor and the incredible porters. View Signature Travels is a top-notch operation, and we highly recommend them, and this fantastic trip!

Where do I start? Each of our guides gave us such personal attention at each moment of the trip. Thomas’ knowledge of the birds, plants, and terrain not only gave us a rich experience on our trek but inspired such confidence in his leadership as well. The team of guides who worked with him were each so special to us. Henry and Rolando showed such interest in how we were feeling along the hike and engaged us at every opportunity. Reuben always had a smile and made us all laugh with his antics among the crew. All of the porters, chefs and massage therapists worked together to make us feel so special. You really can’t make a better choice than to travel with this group. We will remember this trip fondly forever!

Very trustful partner for organizing tours in Peru, setting the bar very high for tourism standard.

View Peru, Javier Velasquez, Sebastian Vargas, and Fortunato were great for our entire 12 day trip to Peru--Cusco, Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, and Lima. It all began with an amazing View Peru agent with Javier. Answer dozens of questions, timely responded to all questions and emails, was candid about costs and expenses. He was great before and during the trip. Sebastian Vargas was our tour guide throughout our trip, He was super friendly, always on time, incredibly informative, and willing to go out of his way to make sure our Peruvian travels were the best. I would recommend Sebastian as a travel guide within each city and/or on the Inca Trail. Lastly, Fortunato was an super driver for us throughout our time. Always on time, always safety first, and willing to take detours if we wanted to see something not on the planned itinerary. Peru is a magical place. If you want five star treatment, five star hotels, five star customer service--look no further than View Peru and its talented team.

We recently completed the 4-day Inka Trail with View Peru, culminating in the breathtaking site of Machu Picchu. Our private tour included 5 of us and an extraordinary support team of 32 people, including porters, chefs, masseuses, and others.

Our guide, Tomas, and his assistant, Sebastian, were exceptional. They provided us with the most amazing conditions along the trail, including hot water, comfortable beds in tents, massages, and clean toilet facilities. The guides were bilingual, speaking both English and Spanish fluently, and were incredibly knowledgeable about Inka culture and history.

Everything was meticulously planned and executed according to the schedule, showcasing the outstanding organizational skills of the team. Despite the trail's challenges, the experience felt much easier and more enjoyable thanks to the dedication and support of everyone involved.

We felt completely at home throughout the journey. The comfort, care, and professionalism provided by View Peru made this challenging adventure an unforgettable experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to explore the Inka Trail in the best possible way!

Our experience with View Peru was unforgettable, thanks to the entire team. They made us feel like part of their family, meticulously planning and executing every detail flawlessly. They adapted to special requests with ease, grace, and warm smiles.

Thomas and Sebastian are incredibly knowledgeable about Inca history, culture, and traditions, educating us through engaging storytelling. They also ensured our comfort and safety throughout the journey.

Thank you, View Peru Team! I highly recommend them if you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!

My experience with View Peru signature was beyond exceptional. This was my first time in Peru and the crew led by Thomas (Moto Moto) and Sebastian (Pony) were nothing short of incredible. They treated us like family and I genuinely think my experience could not have been better.

I highly recommend them. I will be back.

View Peru and Signatures was amazing. The guides, especially Ofelia, became more like friends than "guides". Knowledgeable, honest, open, sharing of their lives and experiences, this became more of a cultural exchange experience, than "lessons'. They were attentive and kind, flexible and respectful of our wishes. I can't recommend this company enough. And the driver was so very good!

The best service, the people is amazing, 100% is the best!

Excellent! They helped make our vacations very enjoyable. The team at View Peru was very attentive and gave us a personalised treatment.

My husband and I celebrated our 10 year wedding anniversary on a custom Luxury Inca Trail 5 day Package, and it was truly the best experience ever. The hike itself was absolutely beautiful with fantastic, changing landscapes throughout, and we encountered many tremendous Inca sites and learned so much along the way. Each detail exceeded our expectations and the staff worked so hard to make sure everything was perfect. This trip was a dream come true and a life changing experience for us both.

We were blessed with the two BEST guides on this trip, Juan and Anthony. Juan is more than a guide – he is a friend, storyteller, teacher, and master of trails. He has a deep understanding of Andean history, and shared this invaluable knowledge every step of the way. Meals with Juan were the best and we loved sharing stories and laughing with him. When we had a medical situation at the end of our trip, Juan went so far above and beyond to make sure we felt safe and taken care of. Juan is an absolute treasure and we felt so lucky to spend 7 days with him.
Anthony is also a truly special guide; he is always positive, patient, and thoughtful. He has an obvious love and respect for the Andean worldview and for Mother Earth. Anthony's wise words made a deep imprint on me. He also helped with practicing Spanish and after 4 days on the Trail with him my skills improved immensely.

The rest of the team also helped to make sure we were extremely well taken care of in every way, including getting us the best campsites with stunning views. We adored Hydet, whose massages were luxurious after a long day of hiking. She led the special yoga session which was a perfect way for my husband and I to connect with each other and celebrate our anniversary. Celio’s food was unbelievably delicious and beautiful. We were blown away by every single meal and that they were able to cook us these delicacies along the Trail. Our waiter Paulino was very sweet and attentive. The rest of the supermen a.k.a. porters were hard working, professional, and kind. Ronald, our driver, and Doris and Rodrigo from the View Peru office were also very responsive and helpful before and during our trip.

This really was the best experience ever and we can’t say enough amazing things about it. Thank you View Peru!!! Tupananchiskama ❤
