I am looking at the four day tours for Machu Picchu. I am curious on the hiking/actvity levels needed. Do we carry all of our gear? I'm on a three week trip and will not be able to put everything into a ruck sack/backpack. I'll likely just have a suitcase. I want some activity and I want to be outdoors. I want a more authentic experience vs larger organizations that cost way too much for too little experience.

On this tour, you will have to carry all your belongings with you, we provide a duffle bag for you. I recommend you to take only what you will need for the time of the tour. Recommended list: Snacks (dried fruits, cookies, candies, chocolates, etc.), walking shoes or sneakers, Complete Equipment for rain or poncho (from November to April), lightweight hiking pants, Hat or cap, Sunglasses, Sunscreen, Insect Repellent, Toiletries (shampoo, soap, body cream), Photo / video cameras and chargers, Water Bottle, Original passport, Extra money in soles at least S/400.00 per person.
