Trip Extensions and Options
- 4-Day Trek to Machu Picchu. Enjoy the spiritual, but
challenging trek to Machu Picchu. Trek must be booked 6 months before trip
departure. Depart the morning of day 3 hiking the Inca Trail. This is an
incredible yet challenging hike. You need to be prepared and in shape! It is an
exceptional hike. Views of snowcapped mountains and high cloud forests are
stupendous. Walking from one beautiful ruin to the next is unforgettably
mystical. Four days of moderate to strenuous hiking on stone-paved paths with
many ups and downs. The highest pass is at an elevation of 13,776 feet. Camp
three nights. On the trek, you’ll have a local English-speaking guide and camp
staff included. Porters carry all the gear (tents, food, etc.) and cook
excellent meals. All you carry is your daypack and sleeping bag, leaving the
rest of your belongings in Cuzco. On Day 6, your final approach to Machu
Picchu, the “Lost City,” is from above. Standing at the “Gate of the Sun,” the
splendid stone ruins of Machu Picchu hover in the mist before you. This is the
ultimate reward for mountain trekkers. Limited availability - hike must be
