This one will take you on an EPIC expedition with breathtaking views, unbelievable scenery, and the experience of a lifetime
The classic Inca Trail hike is a moderately challenging four day, three-night hiking and camping adventure. This particular 43 kilometer (26.7 mile) stretch of trail connecting major Inca archaeological sites to Machu Picchu has become known as the “Inca Trail.”
Over the last 10 years, this hike has become incredibly popular to the point that access to this trail is strictly limited and requires a ticket to be purchased roughly 6 months in advance. It is impossible to hike this trail without a licensed guide and the daily number of hikers allowed on the trail is limited to 500. First Step Expeditions cannot guarantee availability until we have the permit in hand.
