Highlights

• Voted one of the top 25 treks on the planet by National Geographic. You will trek through the rainforest, cloud forest, over high passes, and around glaciers - your feet might get tired, but your eyes never will. This Salkantay trek with zipline is for adrenaline-seekers. Zipping before Hidroelectrica Station, the site of South America’s highest zip-line, 150 meters off the ground. And onwards to Aguas Calientes by foot and finally your adventure will conclude with your visit to one of the new seven wonders of the world, Machu Picchu.

Highlights

• The Trail is a microcosm; lush green cloud forest alive with birds, Andean peaks and steep mountain passes, a landscape dotted with centuries-old Inca ruins, accessible only to those that follow this most famous pathway.
• However, as truly beautiful as the hike may be, the real reason for its popularity lies at the very end of this four-day adventure; passing through the famous Sun Gate for that first magical sighting of Machu Picchu in the distance. Only Inca Trail hikers can access the gate early in the morning, and it is this crescendo, at one of the new seven wonders of the world which makes this hike a feature on so many ‘South America bucket lists’. The Inca Trail is the best way to arrive at one of the world’s most iconic attractions.

Highlights

• Ideal to avoid most of the other people on the classic Inca Trail. This is well after the hordes on the 4-day classic Inca Trail trek have departed very early in the morning, sometimes waiting in line for up to an hour to start the trek. Allowing them to clear out means you can hike and camp the whole trail in relative solitude away from the masses, as you’re always about half a day behind, and half a day in front of the people on the 4-day Classic Inca Trail trek.
• This 5-day Inca Trail trek version is recommended for photographers, friends, and families with younger kids, this itinerary of the Inca Trail hike moves at a slightly slower pace. While following the same path as the classic 4-day trek, you will stop at quiet campsites to avoid crowds and have more time to enjoy the amazing ruins and scenery along the 28 miles. This 5 day Inca Trail trek also gives you a night at a nice and comfortable hotel in Aguas Calientes town so you can shower and clean up for a second visit to Machu Picchu on day 5 and have the opportunity to climb Huayna Picchu mountain after you have concluded your guided tour of the city.

Highlights

• If you only have 6 days to spare but want to see the main historical and archeological sites around Cusco, Maras, and Moray, experience a short Inca trail, and culminate with the Machu Picchu wonder, you can always go for the Iconic Peru Tour 6 Days, which always lives up to tourists' expectations and more.
