In this adventure you will be led by our expert guides who will make your trip safe and pleasant. In addition to our guides, there are native porters who are in charge of carrying all the group's luggage throughout the trip. Tourists carry their personal luggage, a backpack with things for their personal use, if the tourist does not wish to carry their personal things (which rarely happens), they should hire an extra porter during this tour to the city of the Incas "Machu Picchu". During these 4 days of the classic Inca trail you will be able to taste delicious stews by the best cooks.

In Cusco and the entire southern region of Peru are marked by two different climatic seasons: the rainy season (from November to March) and the dry season (from April to October). The best time to do the classic Inca trail is the dry season. The climate of those months is warm and with little frequency of rains.

It is recommended to make the reservation for the Classic Inca Trail 4 days / 3 nights in advance (6 months before it is recommended) since only 200 people enter Machu Picchu through the Inca trail hike to Machu Picchu route, the rest belong to the support team, cook, porters and guides. You can make the reservation for the Inca Trail hike to Machu Picchu by entering our website. We are an authorized tourism agency.
