This amazing five-day tour opens a portal into the past of the Incan Empire. You will get to see the city that was once the capital of the empire, Cuzco, and retrace the footsteps of Incan farmers, holy people, and families around the ruins of the Sacred Valley.
The headline sight on this trip is the Incan citadel of Machu Picchu, also known as the Lost City of the Incas, and a stunning example of Incan engineering. Arrive at this majestic spot at sunrise – a symbolic time for the Incans – and watch dawn break over the weathered walls of the UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World.
Unrivalled, the staff, the group, the trek and the destination were all amazing. The chefs and their food as well were incredible, you felt very taken care of!

Stellar travel experience that pushed me beyond my own limits, provided opportunities that would not otherwise been achievable, while still providing me the confidence in being safe. The experience was well beyond what I anticipated, and delivered to a level that impressive.

WHAT YOU’LL DO
Mesmerizing and mystical, the legend of Machu Picchu may never be fully unraveled. On a six day journey to the heart of it all, lace up those hiking boots to follow Eco Quechua Lodge along overgrown jungle trails, past hidden ruins, and through vibrant Andean communities to the Lost City of the Incas.
"WALKING IS THE SPEED WE WERE CREATED TO USE WHEN TRAVELING THROUGH LIFE."
- JORGEN JOHANSSON, BACKPACKER
The story begins in Cusco on the cobblestone streets that weave between the city's Spanish colonial churches and plazas. Once the beating pulse of the Incan Empire, it now serves as a historic and archeological prelude where the shops and markets that line the city streets expose ancient traditions and timeless customs.
After two days of urban exploration, it's time to hit the trail. Meander from the Sacred Valley to Aguas Calientes via the Malaga Pass, taking time off between two trekking days for a little relaxation. As the elevation rises, well-trod trails reveal unsullied views of the snow-capped Andes and verdant jungle canopies - rewards well worth the effort.
Tucked into the surrounding scenery, the Eco Quechua Lodge is a welcome respite from all that treking. Revive tired muscles with a soak in the nearby hot springs or jolt the senses with a cup of locally grown organic coffee before making the final ascent to the legendary Lost City of Machu Picchu.
Toes still tingling from the excitement - and all that walking - board the plane back home with a weary smile, still entranced by the memory of your time on the trail.
