Here some information should take into account:

  • The month of February is rainy season so the Ministry closes the Inka Trail, but Machu Picchu remains open and you can take alternative tours such as Salkantay, Inca Jungle, or Lares.
  • The availability we use is the same to any other agency, because this information is directly provided by the Ministry of Culture.
  • The number of spaces is very variable. Agencies usually book up to 30 spaces, do not be surprised if in a moment the available spaces are sold out.
  • The spaces shown are for either route be it Short Inca Trail in 2 days or 1 day, Classic Inka Trail in 4 days, Machu Picchu or Huaynapicchu.
  • Availability is exclusively administered by the Ministry of Culture. Only they can manage and authorize the access to the Inka Trail.
  • The Inca Trail is enabled only for 500 spaces per day, within which includes staff (porters and guides) spaces.

Note: Availability is updated every day (Please press Ctrl + F5 to refresh the availability). First you must choose the Inca Trail Route, Machu Picchu or Huayna Picchu, followed by the month and year of your visit. The number shown per day is the number of places available to the selected date. “0” means that there is no longer any space available.
