Information

INTRODUCTION

This luxury trek begins with pickup from your hotel in Cusco or the Sacred Valley, traveling by private vehicle to Piscacucho (km 82), the official starting point of the Inca Trail. From here, the 45-kilometer route passes through mountain landscapes and a succession of Inca archaeological sites in remarkable condition, all part of the same road that connected Cusco with Machu Picchu more than five centuries ago.

Over four days of hiking, the surroundings shift continuously: cloud forests, high mountain passes, agricultural terraces, and ceremonial enclosures that your licensed guide explains in detail at each stop. The trek ends at Machu Picchu, the 15th-century Inca citadel built on a mountain ridge at 2,430 meters above sea level, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most sophisticated constructions in the Americas.

We handle all permits, mule cargo service for your luggage, and superior-category camping throughout the route, so you can focus entirely on the trail and everything around it.

RECOMMENDATIONS

  • Book your Inca Trail permit as early as possible.
  • Spots are limited and tend to sell out months in advance.
  • Arrive in Cusco at least one day before the trek starts.
  • The city sits at 3,400 m above sea level and your body needs time to adjust to the altitude.
  • Check your gear and clothing in advance and make sure everything you need for four days on the trail is ready.
  • We ask that you visit our office in the historic center of Cusco the evening before the trek, at 7:00 p.m.
  • Your guide will hold a briefing where you can ask questions and confirm all the details of the route.
  • You can store any luggage you are not taking on the trek free of charge at our office.
  • Carry your valid ID documents throughout the entire excursion.
  • Checkpoints on both the Inca Trail and at Machu Picchu require them without exception.
  • If you have any questions or need more information about the tour, don’t hesitate to contact us at: Cell: +51 984 525 006 / WhatsApp: +51 984 683 047 or write to: info@incredibleperutours.com.

Frequent questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Here you will find the most common questions from our clients. Before asking anything, we invite you to carefully read these questions and answers, as well as all the links related to this tour. This will help clarify things in a simple, quick, and practical way.

1. WHAT MEALS WILL I HAVE DURING THE TOUR?

It is an exclusive trekking experience to Machu Picchu that combines adventure, history, nature, and a higher level of comfort. This program is designed for travelers who want to hike the famous Inca Trail with personalized attention, more comfortable campsites, and a more relaxed experience.

2. HOW DIFFICULT IS THE LUXURY INCA TRAIL?

The Inca Trail requires a moderate level of physical fitness, as you will hike along mountain trails, Inca stone steps, and high-altitude areas. Since this is a 5-day program, the pace is usually more comfortable than the classic 4-day Inca Trail.

3. DO I NEED TO BOOK IN ADVANCE?

Yes. It is necessary to book in advance because Inca Trail permits are limited and usually sell out quickly, especially during the high season. We recommend booking at least 6 months in advance.ayment.

4. WILL I HAVE DRINKING WATER DURING THE HIKE?

Yes. We know that staying hydrated during the hike is very important, so you do not need to worry about this. You only need to bring your own water for the first day. After that, our staff will provide water starting on the second day. The water is collected from the tap at each campsite, then boiled and cooled. You will be able to refill your bottle during breakfast, lunch, and dinner, so the water will always be clean and safe to drink.

5. WHAT MEALS WILL I HAVE DURING THE TOUR?

During the tour, we will provide you with excellent meals made with fresh, healthy ingredients and prepared daily by our professional cook. We include breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks for the hike, and tea time at the campsite.

Our ingredients are carefully selected before the trip and prepared with dedication to offer you nutritious and delicious meals throughout the entire route. We can also accommodate vegetarian, vegan, or special dietary options, as long as you inform us in advance at the time of booking.

6. WHAT SHOULD I BRING FOR THIS TOUR?

We recommend bringing your original passport, trekking shoes, comfortable hiking clothes, warm clothing, a waterproof jacket or rain poncho, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, insect repellent, a reusable water bottle, personal items, and a small day backpack.

7. ARE THERE DISCOUNTS FOR CHILDREN AND STUDENTS?

Yes. For this tour, we offer discounts and special rates for infants, children, and students.

Infants under 2 years old traveling with their parents are free of charge.

Children between 3 and 8 years old receive a USD 100 discount by sending a scanned copy of their passport at the time of booking.

Students also receive a USD 40 discount in the following cases:

School and university students between 9 and 17 years old must send a scanned copy of their passport online at the time of booking.

University students up to 25 years old must send a scanned copy of a valid university ID card online for verification. We accept university ID cards from all universities worldwide. Students who are 26 years old or older are considered adults.

8. WHY DO TICKETS SELL OUT SO QUICKLY?

Unfortunately, many travelers are not aware that there is a limit of 500 permits per day for this route. In addition, many hikers do not know that this limit applies not only to travelers entering the famous trail each day, but also to all service staff required by authorized agencies, such as guides, cooks, and porters.

This service staff is essential for the trek, as they provide everything needed for the journey, including food, accommodation, tents, and support. Your guide will keep you safe and informed throughout the hike.

Because of this regulation, the permits required for a group of travelers must always include both travelers and agency service staff.

Now that you know the reason behind the high demand, it is clear why it is important to book your permits as early as possible. To do this, you will need a travel agency authorized by the Peruvian government to operate the Inca Trail, such as Incredible Peru Tours – IPT.

9. HOW MUCH SHOULD I TIP MY GUIDE, COOK, AND PORTERS?

Tips are not mandatory, and there is no fixed amount. Only if you wish, at the end of the tour, you may give tips to the tour guides, cooks, and porters. This is completely optional and voluntary. Any amount you consider fair will be greatly appreciated by our service staff.

10. WHAT WILL THE WEATHER BE LIKE ON THE INCA TRAIL AND IN MACHU PICCHU?

The weather along the Inca Trail is very unpredictable, and it is impossible to say exactly what type of weather you will have during the hike. No matter which month you travel, make sure to have waterproof clothing, such as a rain jacket or a good rain poncho.

At night, temperatures tend to drop, especially on the second night, since the campsite is located at more than 3,600 meters above sea level.

During the day, many people are surprised to learn that on the third and fourth days, the Inca Trail has a subtropical climate. This area extends into the high forest, also known as the cloud forest or mountain forest, which is full of lush vegetation, orchids, ferns, bromeliads, and some mosquitoes.

Machu Picchu is located at 2,400 meters above sea level, which is considerably lower, warmer, and more humid than the city of Cusco and many other places. In Machu Picchu, temperatures can reach around 25°C. It is surrounded by high mountain peaks, often covered in mist. This may be one of the reasons why the Spanish never discovered it.

During the dry season, from April to November, early mornings are usually cloudy and can be cold. As the morning goes by, the clouds clear and the sun comes out, so it can become quite warm. Sunscreen, insect repellent, and a good hat are essential. However, please keep in mind that it can sometimes rain in June and be sunny in December.

During the rainy season, from mid-November to mid-April, rainfall is very common. However, do not be surprised if there are also sunny days during this season. February is the rainiest month, and the Inca Trail is closed during that month.

Remember that it is highly recommended to bring a rain poncho no matter which season you decide to travel. Also keep in mind that when it rains, the ancient stones along the trail become slippery, so it is very important to wear shoes with good grip and perhaps use a trekking pole with a rubber tip.

11. DO I NEED TO BRING EXTRA MONEY FOR MY TOUR?

Yes, only if you would like to buy snacks such as cookies, dried fruit, chocolates, or additional drinks such as soft drinks, beer, or energy drinks. These products may be available in small local shops during the first two days.

There is also the option to take a hot shower on the first day for 10 soles. In addition, if you would like to buy souvenirs from the hike, you can visit the handicraft market in the town of Aguas Calientes. There is also the optional opportunity to enjoy the thermal baths in town on the fourth day, and the entrance fee is 20 soles. For these reasons, we recommend bringing between 150 and 300 Peruvian soles. You may not need to spend any of this money, but in case of an emergency, it is always better to have enough cash.

12. WILL I HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHOWER DURING THE ROUTE? WILL I HAVE ACCESS TO RESTROOMS?

Yes, you will be able to shower at the campsites:

First campsite, Wayllabamba: Hot showers are available. These are provided by a local family, who charge 10 Peruvian soles per person.

Second campsite, Pacaymayo: Very cold showers are available. We do not recommend showering here, as it can be risky due to the cold weather and high elevation of approximately 3,600 meters above sea level.

Third campsite, Wiñay Wayna: Cold showers are available. Despite this, some tourists choose to shower here, especially when the day is warm and sunny.

Regarding restrooms, you will have access to them at the beginning of the hike, at lunch areas, upon arrival at Machu Picchu, and at the campsites.
