Explora Valle Sagrado

My stay at Explora exceeded my expectations! The accommodations, shared spaces, food, guides, staff... all fantastic! At the end of each day, you sit with a guide to plan the outing for the following day, tailored to your interest and activity level. Every "exploracion" was great! Explora gets all the stars!

We had a wonderful time at Explora. The hotel’s concept, built around exploration and conservation, is one of the best ways to discover the incredible beauty of Valle Sagrado. We spent five nights here, but honestly, we could have stayed ten and still wanted more. Everything at Explora runs so smoothly, with thoughtful internal processes that just make sense. We did six explorations, and each one was incredible. There’s no better way to experience this stunning area than with Explora. What really makes Explora special, though, is the staff. You can tell they are well cared for, and it shows in the way they care for guests. We felt an amazing connection with our guide, Giuliano. Whether on easy walks or challenging hikes, he made every moment meaningful. His deep knowledge, warm personality, and constant attention to our safety were outstanding. We’ve traveled all over the world and met many guides, but Giuliano is truly one of a kind—professional, passionate, and kind-hearted. Matias, the manager of explorations, was also wonderful, always helping us plan our activities with enthusiasm and care. Another highlight was Gabriel at reception, whose friendliness and helpful attitude made our stay even more enjoyable. In short, the hotel is beautiful, the concept is meaningful, but the staff is what sets it apart. They make the experience truly special, and we’ve never felt this kind of connection at any other hotel.

Excellent accommodation with world class dining and personalized tours. We stayed in a standard room which offered a great view of the mountains and had a lot of storage space. The menu was designed by the chef of Centrale and adds his style to some more classic Peruvian dishes. Tours were either private or small group and the guides were very knowledgeable.

This was the most fabulous experience. The accommodations, food and guest services were outstanding. The guides were so knowledgeable, generous with their time and genuinely interested in ensuring your hike/outing was what you wanted. Each evening we met with a guide to pick out an appropriate hike/outing for the next day. The guides were very helpful in advising us on how to avoid/minimize the effects of the high altitudes. We stayed for 4 nights. My only regrets was not staying one more day just to relax and enjoy the amenities that that resort has to offer.

Explora embodies a perfect combination of hospitality and trekking experience. The modern architecture of this resort combines elegance with the unique atmosphere of the Sacred Valley. The warm hospitality of the staff, the expertise of all the guides and the delightful epicurean experience make this resort an excellent destination. We’ve been to 2 other Explora locations and we have been amazed at how consistent this experience has been.

The experience with Explora in the Sacred Valley of Peru is amazing! The attention and enthusiasm of the people who work there is incredible! The quality of the food is unparalleled! Our accommodations were fantastic and the daily excursions were incredible! Staying there was truly a beautiful experience! Please go!! It is gorgeous and soul satisfying!
