Description

Salkantay Trek is listed as one of the 25 best treks in the world by National Geographic Adventure Travel Magazine. The Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu is one of the most famous treks in Cusco and is undoubtedly the best alternative trek to experience the original Inca Trails. This trek takes you through many different types of landscapes. You will have the best opportunity to see the typical Andean landscape up to the snowy mountains, the tropical forests and, finally, venture into the dense Inca jungle. If you are thinking of taking a trekking trip to Machu Picchu and want to be off the beaten treks, near the Andean communities and appreciate the beautiful and diverse nature of Peru, the Salkantay Trek is highly recommended

The best trip of our lives

My friend and I (24 years old) went, and it was undoubtedly the trip of our lives! Everything was very organized, attention to detail in everything, the food was SPECTACULAR, with many things included. The guides did an incredible job. Freddy was great! I will recommend it!

Two unforgettable experiences!

We went through the Peru Adventure Trek Agency to do the sacred valley then the Salkantay trek over 5 days and they were two very good experiences! The manager Javier listens to our needs, concerning the Sacred Valley we saw the main points of interest but also had the right to workshops and tastings! As for Salkantay, the accommodation and food were impeccable, and the landscapes magnificent 🥰

An unforgettable trek

The trek is excellently well organized. The guide Brayan is an expert in Inca history and is very willing to explain in detail every question you have. It is one of the best experiences of my life.
