    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten February 2026

      Unfortunately this departure and all other departures in May have the Inca trail permits SOLD OUT. So you have the option to look at a later date, next available departure for the Inca trail is the 11th of June (1 space remaining). Otherwise there is the option to do an alternative hike called the Lares trek or visit Machu picchu by train.

    Sylvia

    Asked on January 16th, 2026

    Is it possible for you to match me up with another female traveller or do you charge a single supplement? What is the best month to hike I heard it was may or sept/October?

    Single supplement
    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten January 2026

      Ours tours are standard twin share basis where you are roomed with another traveller of same gender and similar age (where possible). If you wish to have you own room you can add it additionally. Please note that on this trip, you would have your own room on all nights stops except nights 3-5 on the Inca trail camp. The best time to hike is during Peru's dry season which is May to September. October is still good as well however there is more change of it raining during that time.

  • C

    Carlos

    Asked on September 19th, 2024

    I would like to book this package with my friend but we will be paying separately (although arriving together). How do we do this through the website? I have questions about the trek itself before we book; such as: where do we get the water that we use to drink; is there any connectivity overnight in the tents, to charge cameras; if we come in a day early, can we do any of the cooking classes in Cuzco that are advertised on the Inca Discovery Plus trip; if one of us requires a special meal advertised, do we inform you on booking; are there any plane trips directly into Cuzco, or only from Lima...

    Meals
    Tour Details
    Transport
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten September 2024

      We supply water filling stations usually at the hotels and also on the Inca Trek as well. There will be no connectivity whist on the Inca Trail as the camps dont electricity to charge batteries etc, so you would need to have spare batteries already charged. The cooking classes are not offered as pre or post activities for this trip. You would need to advise us of any special meal requirements at the time of booking, so we can make sure you are accommodated. There are no direct international flights into Cuzco, as it is really only a domestic airport. You will need to travel via Lima in each direction.

  • J

    Joe

    Asked on July 30th, 2024

    Is it possible to get a private room on any of the tour dates starting between August 23-28th? It isn't an option on the booking page, however it is an option on later bookings but I can't do those dates.

    Accommodation
    Tour Details
    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten July 2024

      At this stage all of our August departures are on request, so what you would need to do is request the booking and the single supplement, which will hold your credit card for the full amount. We would then go off to our local office to see if they can confirm for you. This process takes 3-4 business days and if the trip is not confirmed, then we would not charge your card. If you are wanting to do the Inca Trail, there are no trek permits available until mid-october, so you would need to choose the Lares Trek or Cusco stay as the alternative.

    • J

      Joe

      TravelerWritten July 2024

      Why are all these dates available for the trip to hike the Inca Trail if there are no permits available until mid-October? Is it possible to check with your local office and see if they have one spot left on any of the trips between Aug 23/24/25/26/27/28 start dates?

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten July 2024

      Unfortunately we are restricted by the number of INCA Trail permits that are available, so we offer the other 2 options as an alternative (which doesn't show up on the Tour Radar website). Once the Inca Trail Permits are sold out there is no other way that we can secure the permits.
