The Machu Pichu and Amazon Rainforest trip is a great Interary to explore Peru. All of the guides on the trip were excellent. They were fun to hang out with, very knowledgeable about the history, culture, and local ecosystems of Peru. They also worked hard to make sure we were well taken care of.

There were a number of large groups on the Inca Trial which made us really appreciate our small group. The group size made it easier to time each day to avoid the crowds and at times feel like we had the trial to ourselves.

The food on the trip was amazing. While in Cusco we were taken to a nice choice of restaurants and the prepared food on the trek was first class.

We did find that Active Adventures was not particularly helpful in helping us prepare for the trip. I have traveled with several other group travel companies and every other company helped make hotel reservations before and after the trip but Active would not help. Additionally, when we had questions about specific logistics for the trip, they would just refer us back to the "travel wallet" to find the information even when that information was not clear. We learned on the trip that other guests had similar questions before the trip and were given different answers.

Finally, the hotel rooms were hit and miss throughout the trip, with some nights being top end and other being low budget (even though there were higher end rooms available in that hotel).
