FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is the best Machu Picchu tour?
There is no single best Machu Picchu tour for everyone. A 2-day tour is ideal for travelers who want a comfortable visit, while the Short Inca Trail is excellent for travelers looking for a shorter trekking experience. The Classic Inca Trail is best for those who want the complete four-day trekking journey.
How far in advance should I book Machu Picchu?
It is best to plan early, especially for popular travel periods and treks requiring limited permits. Inca Trail permits and Machu Picchu entrance availability are subject to current regulations and availability.
Can I visit Machu Picchu in one day from Cusco?
Yes. A one-day Machu Picchu trip from Cusco is possible, although it involves an early departure and a long travel day. If your schedule allows, a two-day experience provides a more relaxed itinerary.
Is the Classic Inca Trail difficult?
The Classic Inca Trail is generally considered moderate to challenging because of altitude, steep ascents and descents, uneven stone paths and multiple days of trekking. Good preparation and acclimatization are strongly recommended.
What is the difference between the Classic and Short Inca Trail?
The Classic Inca Trail takes approximately four days and includes high mountain passes, several archaeological sites and camping. The Short Inca Trail is a shorter experience beginning at Km 104 and includes Wiñay Wayna and the Sun Gate.
Do I need a guide for the Inca Trail?
The Classic Inca Trail is operated under regulations requiring travelers to participate through an authorized organized trekking service. Our team coordinates the guide, permits and trekking logistics.
Can you create a private Machu Picchu itinerary?
Yes. Private itineraries can be designed around your dates, interests, preferred accommodation, transportation and travel style, subject to availability.
