The tour is approximately 12 kilometers, appreciating dense forests, flora, and fauna as well as archaeological centers of the Inca culture, unlike the classic Inca Trail, this is a quiet hike with amazing views that will fill the camera.

At Km-104 or Chachabamba is located the first checkpoint of the 2-day Inca Trail where the control is very strict and all Inca Trail hikers must show their passports.
The hike begins in Chachabamba. Along the hike, you will get to see impressive Inca ruins, high single flora, incredible mountains, and the legendary trail that leads you to the magical place of the Sun Gate.

Today, you explore the city of your dreams, “Machu Picchu”. The guided tour in the citadel of Machu Picchu lasts more than 2 hours; where you will discover the most important temples of the Inca site.

All our Inca Trail hikers have lunch in this village and after lunch, they return by train (Machu Picchu to Ollantaytambo), then by bus from Ollantaytambo to Cusco.
