Classic Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu in 5 days

Best hiking trip I have done so far

I spent six weeks in Perú and this trip was the absolute highlight for following reasons:

• The inca trail is in itself very beautiful with crazy views along the whole path.
• The many inca sights along the trail are incredible.
• Our guide introduced us to the history along the way. The history was packaged in small portions, which is perfect for understanding and learning. All our questions were answered.
• The food (most of the time three dishes) was really good. We were surprised by the skills of the chef who cooked everything in a small tent on two stoves.
• The porters were very reliable and spread good vibes, even on days that were very tough for them.
• The organisation was perfect from pickup to drop off.
• Last and most importantly, our guide Percy made the four days really fun and even paid attention to the smallest details. Just one example: he surprised us with Coca Cola Zero (which we are addicted to :D) on the last day at the Sungate after an exhausting hike to the top and with the first view at Machu Picchu.

All in all: I really recommend doing the inca trail and booking it with this company.

Lares Trek to Machu Picchu in 4 days

The Lares trek is one of the main alternatives to the Inca Trail and Salkantay Trek, is a shorter leisurely walk, is close to the city of Cusco, besides that there is no special permits for the tour, also is quieter than the Inca Trail and we have for you the classic 4 day hike that we assure you that you will love it very much.

Salkantay Trek by Mckenzie Connell

This snow is really exceptional, located less than fifty miles northwest of the city of Cusco in south central Peru. It is the highest mountain of the Vilcabamba Mountain Range. Because of its proximity to the city, it is easily accessible and is climbed frequently. Join us on this incredible Hiking Tour to Machu Picchu. Book early.
