Overview

This is a four-day bus and hiking tour along the classic Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, starting in Cusco. The tour includes trekking through mountain landscapes with snow-capped peaks, rivers, and diverse plants and animals. Along the way, hikers visit several archaeological sites that showcase Inca history. The tour uses camping accommodation for three nights, with personal double tents shared among four people for added comfort. Participants receive an air roll mattress, tables and chairs, and use of cooking, dining, and toilet tents with bottled gas. Porters carry the food and equipment. An experienced bilingual guide and a trekking chef accompany the group. A pre-trek briefing is held at the hotel the day before departure. Water is provided daily except for the first four hours of hiking, when participants must bring their own. The itinerary includes a tourist vehicle from Cusco to the Inca Trail starting point at Kilometer 82, and a tourist bus from Ollantaytambo back to Cusco at the end. The Inca Trail permits and Machu Picchu entrance tickets are included. Meals consist of three breakfasts, three lunches, three dinners, and three afternoon hot beverages. After visiting Machu Picchu, the group takes a tourist train from Aguas Calientes to Ollantaytambo. A first aid kit with emergency oxygen is available throughout the trek. Breakfast on the first day and the last lunch in Aguas Calientes are not included. The shuttle bus from Machu Picchu to Aguas Calientes, travel insurance, extra porter service for personal belongings, tips, sleeping bags, and hiking poles are also not included. The trip suits travelers aged 12 and above. Vegetarians should notify when booking. Those prone to altitude sickness should bring necessary medication and consult a doctor before joining. Reservations should be made well in advance due to trail access limits set by the Peruvian government.
