Cusco - Independently explore the captivating ancient capital of the Inca Empire
Lares Trek - Embark on one of the most scenic treks in the world, hiking through the rugged Andes Mountains

Machu Picchu - Marvel at the world famous Inca citadel, which is one of the New 7 Wonders of the World
Step off the beaten track and into the heart of Peru on the Lares Trek & Machu Picchu 7-day tour, tailored for seasoned explorers and seniors who thrive on adventure. Starting and ending in Cusco, this self-guided trek leads you through the spectacular Andes, past remote villages and scenic high-altitude trails reaching up to 4,500 meters.
Enjoy meaningful encounters with Quechua communities, marvel at the pristine beauty of Aruraycocha Lake, and ultimately reach the legendary Machu Picchu. With fewer crowds than the classic Inca Trail, the Lares Trek offers a more intimate and culturally rich trekking experience.
What sets this trip apart is the authentic local interaction and the opportunity to experience Peru’s most iconic site after a rewarding and less-traveled journey through the mountains.
