BRIEF ITINERARY

Day 4-7 Inca Trail (3B, 3L, 3D)
Embark upon a once in a lifetime journey on the ancient trail of the Incas. Though physically challenging, the excursion is within the ability of most reasonably fit people. Each day is filled with spectacular mountain scenery and fascinating ruins. Our local porters and guides take care of the details so you can focus on the experience—and save your strength! On the final day, climb the steps to Intipunku, the 'Sun Gate', to watch the sunrise over Machu Picchu before our tour of the famous Inca ruin. Return to Cuzco in the evening.
