Hi guys, my name is Saul Cosio, and I will tell you a little bit about my life. I was born on December 02, 1979, and one of my biggest motivations is to talk about Peruvian culture. The languages I speak are English and Spanish. In my free time, I like to play sports.

I decided to study the professional career of tourism because I always liked to know new cultures and that people discover the traditions that we preserve to this day. Therefore, guiding for me means teaching, showing, and learning about our history.

Currently, I have been working as a tour guide for about three years, and I feel very happy working in Salkantay Trekking. I had the opportunity to know several routes of our wonderful imperial city, but the one that continues to captivate me is the famous Salkantay Trek; being able to walk around fantastic trails until you reach the majestic Machu Picchu is undoubtedly one of the most incredible experiences that you should do at least once in your life.

As a collaborator of Salkantay Trekking, I wish the company continues to grow, maintaining the excellent quality of service that stands out among other agencies.

Amazing all round

They are very professional and friendly. The tour guides and food services are amazing. The vans were brand new and very comfortable. I wouldn’t use any other tour service and you shouldn’t either!! We did the short Inca trail trek as well as rainbow mountain with them.

5D/4N Salkantay Trek

Myself and my partner did the 5D/4N salkantay trek in December 2021 with Alex and Fredy as our guides and it was one of the best experiences we have done. The food and the accommodation were fab and whilst the trek was challenging at times it was super fun and very rewarding.

AMAZING

We did the half day city tour and the one day Machu Picchu tour and it was amazing. Our guides, Fredy Apaza and Ricardo were not only friendly and warm people, but EXTREMELY knowledgeable. They provided us with so much information not only about the sites but about the ancient and modern culture. Their peruvian pride really was special. They offered all help from advice with our stay in the city to taking all of our pictures. They gave us the most incredible experience. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone, especially with our guides.

Excellent

Seeing a new side of life made the whole trip that much more personal. Aside from Franz and Carlos guiding and teaching us about the Andean life, they had such high spirits that kept us going! I would ask for them specifically in my next trip!

Best experience EVER!

My friend and I did the Humantay Lake and Salkantay Pass Trek with the most awesome guide, Jorge! The views were amazing, the service was great! The meals included were delicious and they even give you snack packs for your day hikes. What made the experience great was Jorge. He was super friendly, kind, respectful and the best cheerleader. The treks are not a walk in the park, but Jorge shared interesting facts and the history of the places along the way making everything enjoyable. And whenever he noticed I was tired, he would cheer me on. Book this trip! You will not regret it. Muchas gracias Jorge!!!

Best 5 days ever

The Salkantay Classic 5 day was the most incredible experience of my life. Our guide Fredy Apaza Huarhua was absolutely outstanding. He was both knowledgeable and good-humored. He made sure everyone had a great time and was hugely supportive during tough times. I would 100% suggest this trek to anyone in great physical condition and a taste for adventure!
