The Lares Trek is an excellent alternative to the often busy Inca Trail. Taking you off the beaten track with visits to authentic Andean communities whilst being surrounded by stunning mountains, lakes, and valleys, this fabulous trek offers a real insight into the lives of the people of Cusco as it once was.
The route we offer starts in the village of Pumahuanca in the Sacred Valley and finishes in the hot springs of Lares, with a visit to the village of Cuncani along the way. On day 3 of the trek, you take a bus from Lares to Ollantaytambo and then carry on by train to Machu Picchu.
In the day 4 afternoon, we take the train to Ollantaytambo and from there we will take the bus to Cusco.
Please see the detailed itinerary for more information.

We were very pleased with the professionalism of LimaTours. From putting a customised itinerary for us, advising us on activities appealing for the kids to the actual tour delivery. The attention to detail and high-level expertise of the tour guides made a difference in ensuring our trip was a success. Our guide Oscar Medina went beyond the expected showing our children the highlights of each place from a perspective relevant to their age. He was enthusiastic and very friendly. As part of the tour, we went to Sacsayhuaman, visited the community of Huilloc and participated in a workshop on local art making which the whole family enjoyed. We also visited the main landmarks as the Coricancha and the San Pedro market where the family heard stories and the kids found treasures to take with them back home to Dubai. A trip to remember. We will surely be back again. We definitely recommend Limatours for a top quality experience.
