Dear SAS Travel,



I recently participated in the 4-day Inca Trail organised by SAS Travel which departed on the 30th December and finished on 2nd January. I returned to the UK only this

weekend hence the delay in contacting you to say "thank you" to SAS Travel and the team for organising what proved to be such an exciting and enjoyable adventure.

The high level of standards and professionalism shown throughout the trek

is to be commended. The porters, cook and guides were professional, courteous and hard-working at all times and I was deeply impressed with the high quality of the facilities (tents, etc) and the food throughout. It was camping at a standard that exceeded all my previous experiences!



Most importantly though I wish to make special note of the two guides -Ruben and Omar. Again, both were highly professional but beyond that they worked so hard to ensure that we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and did everything together as group.Special note must be made of Ruben's stories along the route: these were always informative, entertaining and at times quite humorous and proved Ruben to be a very talented story teller!

I should be most grateful if you would pass on my sincere thanks to both Ruben and Omar for their hard work, caring and patience - it was truely appreciated and made participating in the trek a real pleasure.



Once again many thanks to SAS Travel and very best regards to Ruben and Omar for 2005,

Rosamund (Roz) Davis

Hello Everyone at SAS Travel!



I just wanted to thank all of your team on behalf of my three companions and myself for putting together a fabulous and memorable Christmas trip for us. The 4 day Inca Trail we went on was very professionally organised and run and special thanks to our two guides Ozzi and Julien for making it so. We all had a fantastic time and ate exceedingly well (including my girlfriend who is vegetarian!).



Many thanks

I just wanted to thank you and the entire SAS team for the wonderful time my husband and I had on our four-day trek.

To be honest, the hike was more difficult than I had anticipated. I was pretty nauseous at times and had difficulty eating – and breathing. I think that the challenges I faced made completing the trek even more rewarding than I could have imagined! Ozy and the porters were absolutely fantastic! They knew I was having a hard time and remained within earshot throughout the entire four days! They allowed me to walk at my own pace (very slow) and never pressured me to keep up with the rest of the group. Ozy encouraged me, gently and professionally, to succeed at completing the hike. The porters made sure I had a tent and mattress to rest during a tea break after having a difficult morning, and at one point they met me on the trail with a sandwich. They too were extremely professional.

If I had not completed this trek I know I would have regretted it for the rest of my life. This trip had been a dream of mine for the past five years. I couldn't have made it without SAS Travel.

Thank you for turning my dream into reality!

Sincerely,

Paula Streeter

Hi, This is just an email to let you know that we went on the 4 day trek with Isiac and Efrain and wanted to recommend these 2 for anyone else going on an Inca Trail. Not only were they helpfull and full of information that we all wanted to hear they were thoughtful and so funny that if anyone else was booking this tour they would be missing out if they did not get these 2 guys. Also a big Thanks to SAS for the chefs you gave us ( Super Mario ) and the porters who did a great job. I thought we were supposed to loose weight when we up there not put it on but it was like 5 star camping. We have already recommended SAS to everyone who is thinking of doing the trail as there is not one fault any of us can think of and we just wanted to say Thank You, for one of the best experiences we have had since we have been travelling Andrea & Michael

Back in May this year we had a fantastic time walking the Inka Trail to Muchupicchu with SAS, the food was 5 star, and our guide Ruben second to none. SAS helped make a holiday of a life time, it not only met our expectations but exceeded them. We also took up your recommendation and did the 2 day tour of Lake Titicaca and this just built on the experience. When setting out on the Lake Titicaca tour the three of us never though we would be dancing in national costume at 3800 meters, so a very big thank you to you and your team who helped make our holiday so unforgettable.

SAS Travel,



I wanted to take a moment to let you know how professional and on top of

things your organization is. I came into Peru to hike the Inca Trail

November 25-29 and it was extraordinary. My guide was Julio and he was

great. His English was PERFECT and he had a wealth of information on the

area and environment. Actually, everyone I dealt with at your office was

extrememly friendly and went above and beyond to help, including your driver

who opened the office to help me when I arrived in Cusco a

day late due to a canceled flight out of Lima.



I will be telling all my fellow travelers that you are the company for the

Inca Trail.



You have a beautiful country and I feel so lucky to have had the chance to

visit.



Thank you for a great experience and memory.

Hi!

Just wanted to send an email to say thanks for your excellent service. We went on the 4 day Inca trail on the 6th Nov, and were really pleased with everything. We'd had lots of recommendations for your company throughout our travels in South America, which made us sign up with you even though your prices are a little higher than others. It was definitly worth it! HUGE spacious tents (plus an awning to keep those stinky boots outside), friendly porters, great (and lots of) food - and most

of all an excellent guide. Augusto really made the trip fantastic. He was always smiling and making sure everyone was OK. We got so much more information than many other groups, some people even tried to listen in on our group! He was really encouraging when we had to climb the pass - something which I'm sure we all appreciated whilst we huffed and puffed up the slope! All the small touches like Vodka in the morning to perk us up, Rum and hot tea and even a decorated birthday cake for 2 group members made the trip even more special.

Thanks so much!!!

Al and Stu

p.s The hostel in AC was lovely too - a most welcome lie-in!

Having just returned from the 2 day Machu Picchu trip with SAS we wanted to

let you know what a great trip we had. We had been recommended SAS by

several sources and can see now why you are so highly regarded. We were

impressed with all aspects of the set up - from your office staff to the

guide. Our tour guide Ruben made the trip for us, his knowledge, passion and

enthusiasm was second to none, we couldnt have asked any more of him. On our

return journey the train broke down but SAS were waiting for us at the next

stop once we got going, whereas other travellers were left stranded.



Also your bus driver helped us sort a problem at Cusco bus station when our

Ormena bus to Puno was cancelled the following day. He refunded us the

correct amount of money and ensured we were able to continue with another

company.



Keep up the good work, we will ensure SAS receives glowing reports to anyone

we meet.

I recently completed a 4 day trek with your company on the 5th of August. I just wanted to say what a pleasure it was to have been smart enough to use your company. Omar and Stefano were absolutely wonderful as guides. They were kind and patiently responded to any questions asked of them. Their meticulous attention to detail was greatly appreciated by the rest of the group and myself. The porters were the hardest working bunch of guys that I have ever seen. It amazed me that they could tear down and put up a site so fast. Your cook is a tremendous asset as all of the meals we were served were outstanding. I would recommend your company to anyone looking for a reputable firm to guide them over the trail. It was a trip that I will never forget. Please give my regards to everyone there.
