Incredible Inca Experience

A challenging and rewarding trek made unforgettable by an excellent team of guides and porters. Over 4 days of trekking we saw enormous and beautiful Andes mountains, countless flora, many birds, llamas, coati, and several Inca archeological sites, concluding with Machu Picchu. The Inca sites on the trail were much more secluded than Machu Picchu and we had time to explore them at our leisure. The Inca trail itself is an impressive feat - a stone path tracing through the mountains, up & down slopes. Climbing a set of Inca stairs at high altitude in a cloud forest was an unforgettable experience. I recommend having a base level of fitness and using trekking poles to better enjoy the hike.

The BEST way to see Machu Picchu!

I can’t imagine doing this trip without this company and especially our guide team. They went BEYOND above and beyond. When booking I highly recommend requesting Fernando as your tour guide, Teofilo as your chef, Vicente as your porter, and Yuri as your horseman. No

Amazing trip!!!

This trip was a memorable one. I won't forget this one. From the amazing food from Teofilo or Vicente the porter that carried the extra weight when we went over the weight limit.

La Pachamama was on our side!

We had the most incredible experience with Alpaca Expeditions. Our tour guide Ethel Paola was incredible. We learned so much on the trail, she let us set the pace and she was a blast to spend meals with. King (chef) Julian outdid himself every meal and kept us surprised at his creativity. The group of porters we had were incredible and always making sure we were taken care of. The bond they have was like a family and we felt it the entire trip. We had the best time and thanks to La Pachamama, we lucked out with the most beautiful weather and experience. Thank you!

The BEST TOUR I've ever been on, hands-down!

I can't recommend this tour enough. Well organized, amazing experience. Hiking was beautiful and the porters and staff were so hard working, they carried everything, set-up camp for us every day/night and allowed guests to immerse in the magic of the Incan culture and natural beauty unencumbered. Also - the food, which was cooked fresh every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner was delicious, healthy and made with care.

Inka trail review

The hiking was awesome, lots of beautiful and different landscapes along the way. On a clear sky at night one can see the Milky Way, it’s incredible. The special views from Macchu Pichu that only can be seen by hikers made everything perfect.

Excellent tour!

"Excellent tour! We (50f, & 2 teens) found this tour operator from great reviews and had a great experience. Two-day Incra train tour with hotel. Clear and thorough communication before and during the tour. (Definitely follow tips about needing 6mos on passport, collecting and rechecking baggage in Lima, and arriving at least 2 days before tour for acclimation to altitude.) One of our group had altitude sickness so bad they couldn't do the hike, and the company helped us find an alternative so one of us could still do the hike and two of us took the train all the way to Aguas Calientes and were still able to tour Machu Picchu on the second day. Excellent service and hotel. Wouldn't go with another company.
