Description

Your adventure kicks off at 7:00 a.m., when our guide will stop by your hotel to welcome you. We'll head to Chinchero, a charming town in the Andes, where we'll visit a local family who'll tell us about their customs and life in the community. At 9:00 a.m., we'll start our walk through Chinchero, a place full of history with its imposing agricultural terraces that still stand as witnesses to the Inca past. From here, we'll head onto the Inca Trail for a 15 km hike, a moderate effort that's mostly downhill. During the tour, you'll feel like time has stopped. You'll be surrounded by local flora and fauna, with views of the valleys and mountains that will uniquely connect you with nature. The Inca Trail will take you along ancient paths where each step brings you closer to the history of this wonderful place. And when you get to the Poc Poc Falls, the feeling of being in the middle of an unexplored landscape will be something you'll never forget. Once the hike is over, our transport will take us to Urubamba, where you can enjoy a delicious buffet lunch that will recharge your energy for the rest of the day. The tour will end around 3:00 p.m., leaving you with unforgettable memories of this unique experience. We'll drop you off in the heart of Cusco, near the Plaza de Armas, where you can continue exploring the city or just relax after a day full of adventures.
