Peru In Style with the Inca Trail (PIS IT)

14 days / 13 nights start and finish Lima.

Peru in Style with Inca Trail

Enjoy several days in Cuzco visiting the numerous ruins and soaking up the atmosphere of this amazing Inca city before travelling to the Sacred Valley where you will be based in a rustic lodge with access to a variety of activities including walking, horse-riding, tennis, spa treatments and even paragliding! This also provides vital acclimatisation time before you embark on the Inca Trail.

The five-day itinerary allows time to explore and enjoy the amazing archaeological sites, landscapes and nature along the trail. While some other programmes speed through the stunning high altitude Inca Trail, you can take the time to enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime experience. You camp for just three nights, enjoy great meals and sturdy tents. You will walk for six to seven hours each day including time to explore sites you pass through and to take in the unparalleled scenery. On the fourth afternoon you will arrive at Machu Picchu after the crowds have left, and have time to explore the tranquil ruins. On top of this you will then return to Machu Picchu to see the ruins in the early morning light the following day. In the afternoon you return to Cusco by train. This specific itinerary is designed to offer a relaxed trek and a deep understanding of Inca culture. Afterwards take the famous first class train over the altiplano to Lake Titicaca where a fast boat brings you to Taquile Island, famous for a culture and lifestyle unchanged over the centuries.

Using stylish accommodation throughout, often in historic hotels, this is the ideal way to experience this fascinating country with its many cultural sites and breathtaking mountain scenery.
