“Standing at the Sun Gate, the clouds began to thin and suddenly Machu Picchu appeared 400 feet below bathed in sunlight. What an incredible sight!”

Simon, Inca Trail participant

The Inca Trail is one of the most spectacular and famous treks in Latin America. Every step of your 9 day trek will retrace an ancient civilisation and transport you on a mystical journey back in time to discover the lost city of Machu Picchu.  Along the trail you’ll walk among the lush vegetation of the lower rainforest, climb through the high cloud forest and cross the snow line on the highest pass.

Walking from one beautiful ruin to the next, in the midst Photo: Inca Trail kids with puppies (by Crissie Proudley)of the magnificent Andes, is a truly unforgettable experience.
