Well worth it! Our driver was Frank and guide was Jimmy. We were picked up at 07:45 from our hotel and dropped back to town centre around 18:30. We got to see so many beautiful landscapes within the Sacred Valley of the Inca. Jimmy was awesome, friendly and helpful. I definitely would recommend this day tour. We bought our entry ticket (tourism pass as they call it) once we got on the tour. Worked out better for us we only wanted to do the Sacred Valley tour. Thanks for a great day guys!

The Inca Jungle trek to Machu Picchu is by far the most adventurous trekking option in the Cusco region. It is also the most varied in terms of activities.
The Inca Jungle Trail adventure includes sections of biking and on foot, crossing mountains, valleys, rivers, indigenous towns, cocoa and coffee plantations, and a huge variety of fruit trees on this 4-day route. You will also soak in healthy and relaxing hot springs before finishing this amazing adventure in Machu Picchu.
The Inca Jungle Trail is a very good alternative for the classic Inca Trail, which is usually very busy or sold out months in advance.
This trip comes with bragging rights. It’ll take you to Machu Picchu by a route that most tourists don’t even know exists. The trek combines the beauty of the mountains with a cultural visit to two different villages, deep in the mountains.
The trek starts in Lares and takes you through a swathe of the Sacred Valley that’s home to many traditional weavers and farmers. In this part of Peru, the valleys and peaks of the Andes crest and fall like ocean waves, and the hoof marks of alpacas are more common than footprints.
You will also have the chance to enjoy the hot springs, which are divided into various pools ranging from freezing cold to boiling. They are all composed of pure volcanic water, which is medicinal in nature and considered to be good for your bones, stress, muscles and headaches.
This was definitely adventure travel with an emphasis on education. It felt like we were there for much longer than we were because each day was packed with wonderful activities. This was my 2nd G Adventures tour and appreciated the upgrades to the National Geographic version. While all of my memories are my favorite, what stands out most was the Amazon experience, the Potato Park venue, the "hidden oasis hotel" in Urubamba, and seeing Machu Picchu after the climb up the stairs. Also - the guides at each destination were also very knowledgeable and outgoing. Loved the whole trip.

This is the second trip I have taken with G Adventures and it was again amazing. Your company does a great job of planning every little detail and it takes away the anxiety I can sometimes feel when traveling. The guides and drivers are excellent and they made the travel and trip outstanding.

This Inca Soul Peru tour package showcases the best of Cusco and the Sacred Valley before taking you on the journey of a lifetime along the short Inca Trail to the famous Machu Picchu. This Peru vacation is the perfect mix of culture, history, and adventure for the eager traveler.
You will start your adventure in Cusco, home to a fascinating mix of colonial and ancient architecture. Here you'll explore the city on an expert-guided Cusco city tour and then experience the surrounding areas with a tour of the Sacred Valley of the Incas.
Once you have explored all that Cusco has to offer, head out on the famous short Inca Trail. This is more than a hike; it is an excursion into the past, where you can learn about Inca civilization, culture, and society.
Before the tour ends, you will have the time to visit the Rainbow Mountain.
We will pick you up at 04:00 am to your hotel. After boarding your private car, we then take you to the village of Pitumarca. Pass through various towns and enjoy the incredible views of the Peruvian Andes right through the journey.
Arrive your destination and start the day with a delicious breakfast. We also help you buy some provisions that are necessary during the tour. After this short stop, we will continue our journey observing the landscapes, the mysterious mountains and the deep valleys.
We reach the village of Chillca at a distance of 3700 meters above sea level. From here, we start the walk uphill for 4 hours until you reach the Rainbow Mountain. When you reach the top of the mountain, you will be able to enjoy stunning views of the Andes and the Andean fauna.
All the mountains surrounding this area are red and there are stunning views of the valleys and mysterious mountain of 7 colors, where we will have enough time to be able to take photos and videos.
After the great experience, we will begin our return. We then proceed to enjoy a delicious lunch. After lunch, you can visit some of the locals in their homes, where you can see the way of life of people who still practice the ancient traditions of the Incas.
Later we will return to Cusco at 19.00 hours.
Join us on this 6-day tour of some of Peru's most famous heritage sites and discover the cultural riches of the country known as much for its cultural antiquity as for its diversity. Start this trip by acclimatizing your body to the change in altitude in Cusco.
Travel to the Sacred Valley next. Tour some of the most important landmarks of the valley and stay there overnight. Take the Vistadome train to Machu Picchu and explore its ruins for a full day. See the impressive salt pans of Maras that have been used to extract salt for at least 5 centuries. Also travel to Queswachacha, the last Inca bridge.
End this tour in Cusco and enjoy our drop off service to the airport.

I did not know Gadventures or anyone who have traveled with Gadventures before booking the Classic Peru trip. It has exceeded my expectation in terms of activities and how genuine and local they were and the execution of the program. Will definitely travel with Gadventures again

This spectacular tour will introduce you to two of South America's greatest travel icons – the mysterious wonder of Machu Picchu and the fascinating Amazon rainforest.
The sky-scraping citadel of Machu Picchu, also known as the Lost City of the Incas, was built in the peaks of the Andes around 1450. If its walls could talk, they would tell tales of Incan sacrifice, worship and royalty. The Amazon, meanwhile, comprises the most expansive rainforest in the world, home to the second-longest river on earth and the life-giving artery that pumps its way across South America. Much of this territory is untamed and some is even unchartered!
On this tour you will have the opportunity to explore the famous Machu Picchu, enjoy spotting exotic animals and other wildlife in the rainforest, and create memories to last a lifetime!
