GROUP TOUR (FOR AGES 18 - 55): Take in the best of Colombia and Peru on this 15-day tour from Medellin to Puno. Enjoy guided sightseeing in Cali, Bogota and Cusco, embark on a 4-day trek in the Andes to Machu Picchu and cruise on the shimmering waters of Lake Titicaca. Learn how to dance the Tango, cycle around Bogota and visit the magical Rainbow Mountain in Peru, plus so much more.
During this "Five-day Choquequirao Trek" you will be able to observe part of the Apurimac canyon and river, one of the most beautiful and deepest canyons in Peru. Continuing the route, we will arrive at the charming city of Choquequirao, where we will explore the stone buildings of Inca architecture, such as large cultivation terraces, squares, warehouses, homes, among others.
Also considered the "Sister of Machu Picchu" due to the similarity of architecture, Choquequirao was a special Inca town located on top of a hill to venerate Pachacutec, the ruler of the Inca state. This hidden beauty will show you the most fascinating landscapes, exotic flora and fauna and diverse ecosystems from two different regions of Peru. So, get ready to explore an Inca hidden gem.
Outside of Cusco lies a truly magical landscape of colored mountains and sweeping valleys in the Andes. While Rainbow Mountain (Vinicunca) has gained a lot of fame among travelers, thereby receiving hundreds of visitors on a daily basis, few travelers realize that there are multiple rainbow mountains dotting this other-worldly landscape.
Be part of this off-the-beaten-track experience and travel to Palcoyo during this day trip. Starting from the Main Square of Cusco, we will take you to Palcoyo where you can take pictures and enjoy this otherworldly landscape before it is time to travel back to the city.
Although not as popular as Vinicunca, Palcoyo, discovered only in 2018, is very similar to the well-known mountain. And since few travelers know about this, you can be assured of encountering fewer tourists when you are hiking through its landscape.
In this "Five-Day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu" trek you will walk the most beautiful trail that takes you to the 15th-century Inca citadel site. The Inca trail combines Inca ruins, original Inca trail, Inca steps (up and down), ecological sites with lush and diverse vegetation.
En route, you will find more than 350 species of orchids in the sanctuary, diversified, and evolved flowers in the vegetable kingdom and fauna with numerous species of insects, reptiles, birds, and mammals, the most representative of this area — the spectacled bears( tremarctus ornatus).
At the end of the trail, you will have your first sight of Machu Picchu walking through the Sun Gate, where you could see the ancient ruins from above. We will visit the Machu Picchu "the Lost City of Incas" in the early morning of the last day of our trip. Ideally, we will try to catch the first ray of sunlight illuminate the Incan complex before taking a guided tour of the ruins.
Please see the itinerary section for more details.
