Enjoy local cuisine and immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere of this enchanting region.

The journey continues as we embark on the iconic Inca Trail. Over four exhilarating days, we’ll trek through stunning Andean landscapes, lush cloud forests, and fascinating Incan sites. Our expert local guides will share stories of the Incas, and each campsite will offer breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. On the final day, we’ll rise early to reach the Sun Gate at sunrise, revealing the majestic Machu Picchu in all its glory. Take your time to explore this wonder, learning about its history and significance before returning to Cusco.
