Sports Travel Tour Reviews
- 7 Day Inca Jungle Adventure To Machu Picchu with Mountain Bike, Rafting, Zip Line and Trek.
My wife and I had a great time adventuring around Cusco and Machu Picchu. The hiking was especially enjoyable. Rafting was cancelled due to rough water, but everything else ran like clockwork. Jonathan was helpful and attentive. Food was delicious! Would recommend without hesitation.
- Inca Jungle Trek to Machu Picchu 4D/3N (Biking, Zip-Line & Rafting)
We went on the jungle trek back in November with a guide called Edwin. Originally we were slightly annoyed by the fact that we’d paid 4 times the amount than other people who had booked the tour from local companies, but after the tour we soon realised why. The accommodation for starters was at a very high standard and the food surpassed all of our expectations, we were extremely impressed! On the final evening we stayed in Aguas Calientes, the town at the foot of Machu Picchu, and the hotel was complete luxury-whilst other tours stayed in small guest houses. There were only 4 people in our tour group which meant that Edwin could answer all of our questions and we didn’t spend any time waiting around like you would in a large group. In terms of transport, it was always on time and comfortable and we had the extra bonus of getting the bus up to Machu Picchu (it’s an hour walk to get up to the entrance, which meant we could preserve our energy for Machu Mountain which is definitely worth a visit) and then the train back after the trek. Most other groups had to walk another 2 hours after and more or less make their own way back to Cusco. The extra activities were amazing, white water rafting was fun and the zip lining was even better, really got the adrenaline pumping! Our tour guide was exceptional, very knowledgeable and passionate about his Inca culture and put 100% into everything he done. To summarise, we started off thinking we’d had a bad deal with the price of the tour, but by the time we had finished we completely understood why it cost so much more than the other tours- and I would definitely have done it all again! The only thing I was a little disappointed with was the fact that we still had to pay for the extra activities when a lot of other groups had them included, but other than that it was money very well spent and I’d recommend this tour to anyone- especially the adventure type!
Jonathan was a fantastic guide and overall it was a good value tour. The food we had at lunch was good clean food but a little basic and flavourless sometimes. The hike up to Llactapata was very hard , which perhaps should have been mentioned in the description. However it was very enjoyable too. With regards to this hike, I think the itinerary should allow more time as we had to rush to make it up before dark and had little time to look at the plants etc. We did have more time the next day though. Llactpata lodge would be better with some curtains room (otherwise it was lovely) . The bikes we used needed some repair - bent wheels and faulty pedal. We also did not have a tour guide for the part actually INSIDE the Machu Picchu village, only the exterior , surrounding parts. This was a shame as there seemed to be a lot to learn there. Perhaps I missed this exclusion from the tour description though. Again Jonathan did a great job telling us about the Quechua culture, local plants and the history of the area at other points.

What our customers ask about Sport Tours & Active Vacations
How do seasons affect sport tours?
Weather plays a big role in when you can enjoy different activities. Take Vietnam's hiking and kayaking tours - they're best from October to April when temperatures are a comfortable 68-77°F (20-25°C), and you'll stay at places like the Fortuna Downtown Boutique. If you're heading to Costa Rica, try to avoid the rainy season from May through November, especially for activities like rafting. For the Austrian Lakes tours, plan your trip between June and September when the 65-75°F (18-24°C) weather is perfect for biking and hiking.
What's the terrain like on sport tours?
You'll encounter all kinds of landscapes depending on where you go. Peru takes you through high Andean trails and jungle paths, while Croatia shows off its coastal roads and island routes. In Ecuador, you get a mix of everything - volcanic landscapes, Amazon rainforest, and cloud forest paths. As one traveler told us: "The biking was mostly downhill with stunning views of the Andes, while rafting sections offered grade III rapids through beautiful canyons."
How much activity time should I plan for each day?
Most days include 3-6 hours of activities, plus you'll get rest days too. In Peru, you might spend 3 hours mountain biking or 4 hours rafting. The Croatia family tours keep it lighter with 3-4 hour bike rides followed by relaxing beach time. Between activities, you can recharge at comfortable spots like Hotel La Floresta in Banos, Ecuador.
Where do you stay during sport tours?
You'll find a good mix of places to stay, from regular hotels to eco-lodges. Croatia offers smaller, family-run places like Villa Nora in Hvar. In Ecuador, you might stay at Jamu Lodge in the Amazon or treat yourself to Termas Papallacta Spa & Resort, where you can soak in natural hot springs after a day of adventure.
What kind of food do you get during activity days?
You'll get meals that keep your energy up throughout the day. On Peru's tours, expect filling breakfasts, packed lunches for the trail, and good dinners after your activities. Finland's winter tours include "7 breakfasts, 3 lunches and 7 dinners." One happy traveler mentioned: "The food was excellent and provided good energy for our activities."
What activities are usually included in sport tours?
You'll get to try lots of different activities like biking, rafting, kayaking, hiking, zip-lining, and canyoning. In Ecuador, you can raft the Jatunyacu River, bike through misty forests, and hike in Cotopaxi National Park. Croatia offers cycling past lavender fields, coastal hikes, and paddleboarding in quiet bays. Companies like Adventure Journeys and Meridien Ten provide all the gear you need.
How do tours balance activity and rest time?
You'll typically spend 4-6 hours being active each day, with plenty of breaks built in. The Costa Rica tour mixes up challenging activities like canyoning with downtime at places like Hotel Giada in Samara Beach. In Vietnam, you get full rest days between big activities, and hotels like the Costarena Beach Hotel give you comfortable places to relax. There's always time to unwind in the evenings, and some days are completely free for recovery.
