Although this was a physically demanding trip, it was one of the best experiences of my life. Abe, Wilbur and Alex were patient, kind and caring the food was amazing and the accommodated my vegetarian request, which was really very nice. Thank you for making this ship available.
Classic Inca Trail to Machu Picchu 4 Days with Vistadome TrainVery good organised 2 day tour to Sacred valley & Machu Picchu, everything was clear and in time. Knowledgeable, professional guides. Wanted to say special thank you to our guide Eddie Puma and the team who were not only high professionals but also were very responsive when we encountered a personal issue with a forgotten bag, they worked hard and managed to get our bag back to a different city before our flight in just a few hours Thank you so much guys, best luck in what you do! Highly recommended
Inca Trail 2 Days to Machu Picchu with VistadomeWe did the 5d/4n tour and it was amazing! We had 2 families with 7 kids ages 9 to 14 and they loved it too. The experience was better than we expected in nearly every way. The camping sites were all unique and the food was incredible. Every time you thought they were done brining out the food, more would come. It was all healthy food and nourished our bodies for the hike. Alpaca provided all of our logistics from our pickup at the airport to every aspect of the hike and they were always well-organized. I would Alpaca to anyone who wants to visit this part of the world.

Best time to visit Inca Trail
- Summer 2026
Summer brings the driest weather and clearest skies to the Inca Trail. Our popular 2-day summer options still cover key sites like Wiñay Wayna ruins and sunrise at Sun Gate. The full 4-day route takes you up Dead Woman's Pass at 4,215 meters - it's a real challenge but our travelers say nothing beats that feeling when you reach the top. The porters are incredible, running ahead with gear to set up comfortable camps and cook proper meals. Many summer routes include extra time in Cusco's historic center, Sacred Valley markets and also traditional weaving villages.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Autumn Inca Trail trips offer great value with smaller groups and reliable weather. Our fall tours come with nice extras - dedicated chefs cooking local dishes, hot showers at camp and also comfortable sleeping setups. TourRadar customers love that final morning walk to Sun Gate, arriving just as the mist lifts over Machu Picchu. The guides time everything perfectly to avoid crowds at ruins like Runkuraqay and Sayacmarca. Several autumn treks include time with local Sacred Valley communities before hitting the trail.
