The Inca Trail stands out as one of the most fascinating treks in Peru due to the vast amount of history covered and the number of ruins you will explore.

The 3-night, 4-day Inca Trail camping experience takes you through windswept mountain passes, lush tropical jungle and past isolated Inca ruins.

Tents can fit up to two people, with single tents available upon request. At the end of each trekking day, you will be welcomed into camp by your team who will prepare hot meals for your enjoyment. After walking for three days on the morning of the fourth day, from high above the site you can enjoy their first view of magnificent Machu Picchu, followed by a guided tour of the Inca Citadel. After, you'll return on the train from Machu Picchu to your next destination.

It is worth noting that permits for the trail are limited so we recommend booking in advance for your preferred dates.
