Let me tell you how to use Viator. Close out your browser and forget you ever heard or read about it. I purchased 3 tickets for the salkantey trek to Machu picchu. $900 a piece (Cheapest ones Viator had). We met the other hikers in our group and we're informed they spent between 250-350 a piece.
I definitely recommend this trek to anyone coming to Peru and looking for some adventure. This is the best way to get a sense for the country's incredible natural beauty and fascinating culture and history. Everywhere we went we were met with stunning scenery and warm greetings from locals. The hike itself was tough at times but always rewarding with the view from the top. You do need to be reasonably fit but the guides are good about tailoring the pace to your needs. And Machu Picchu on the last day is just the cherry on top! Totally worth doing - it was the highlight of our trip.
