Unforgettable Tours & Treks in
Cusco, Lima & Beyond

To prevent altitude sickness, we recommend arriving in Cusco (3,400m) at least 2 days before your Machu Picchu trek to acclimatize. Drink plenty of water and coca tea.

The Classic Inca Trail (4 days) is the best for history lovers. The Salkantay Trek (5 days) is the top alternative for nature lovers seeking snow-capped mountains.

Not at all. While it is challenging due to the altitude and terrain, our guides are expertly trained to ensure your safety. We use top-quality equipment and emergency protocols.

Unlike the Inca Trail, the Salkantay Trek does not require a government permit that sells out months in advance. However, we do arrange all necessary entrance tickets to Machu Picchu for you.

The coldest months are June and July (winter in the Andes). Temperatures can drop below freezing at night, but days are usually sunny and dry.

Yes! The Short Inca Trail (2 Days) involves 1 day of hiking to the Sun Gate and visiting Machu Picchu the next day. There are also train tours that take 1 day.

You need good hiking boots, layers of clothing for varying temperatures, a rain poncho, sunscreen, insect repellent, and a sleeping bag (which you can also rent from us).

The Inca Trail is considered a moderate to challenging hike. The hardest part is the second day, climbing up to Dead Woman’s Pass at 4,215m (13,828ft). Good fitness is recommended.

The dry season from May to October is generally considered the best time to visit. You will experience sunny days and clear views, although nights can be chilly.

Yes, absolutely! Our chefs are excellent and can cater to vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and other dietary restrictions. Just let us know when booking.

The local currency is the Peruvian Sol (PEN). While many tourist shops accept US Dollars, it is best to have Soles for small purchases, snacks, and local markets.

We highly recommend travel insurance that covers trekking up to 4,600m. It provides peace of mind for cancellations, medical emergencies, or lost luggage.

Yes, but tickets for Huayna Picchu are very limited and sell out months in advance. You must request this extra hike when you book your trek with us.

You can leave your main luggage at your hotel in Cusco (most provide free storage) or securely at our 365 Viajes office during your trek.

Tap water is not safe to drink. We provide boiled and cooled water during the treks to refill your bottles. In the city, please buy bottled water.

Tipping is discretionary but highly appreciated in Peru. It reflects your satisfaction with the service. A general guideline is provided in our pre-departure briefing.
