Day-by-Day Itinerary
A carefully paced journey designed for acclimatization, connection, and success
Day 1 – Arrive in Cusco
Arrive in the historic Inca capital and ease into the rhythm of the Andes. Spend the day exploring Cusco’s vibrant streets, culture, and architecture at your own pace.
In the evening, gather with your fellow adventurers for a welcome dinner and pre-trek briefing as the journey begins.
Day 2 – Sacred Valley Acclimatization
Travel into the Sacred Valley for a gentle acclimatization hike near the Chinchero ruins, taking in sweeping Andean views along the way. Enjoy a relaxed picnic lunch surrounded by the mountains.
Continue on to Ollantaytambo with time to rest, stretch, or join optional mobility or yoga. An early night sets you up perfectly for the days on the trail ahead.
Days 3–5 – The Inca Trail Trek
Begin the legendary Inca Trail at KM 82, hiking through cloud forests, alpine passes, and ancient Inca sites hidden deep in the Andes.
Highlights include summiting Dead Woman’s Pass and exploring remote ruins such as Runkurakay and Sayacmarca. Each evening, unwind at scenic campsites and connect with your trail community under the stars.
Day 6 – Sun Gate & Machu Picchu
Rise before dawn for the final ascent to the Sun Gate, arriving at Machu Picchu just as the sun breaks over the Andes.
After a guided exploration of the Lost City, return by scenic train to Cusco for a celebratory farewell dinner with your group.
Day 7 – Departure or Extend Your Journey
Depart Cusco at your leisure, or choose to extend your journey with optional add-ons such as more time in Cusco, an Amazon adventure, or a culinary experience in Lima.
What Our Travelers Say...
I can’t recommend Adventuredesk enough for our incredible experience! From start to finish, everything was flawlessly organized. The transportation, accommodations, and even food recommendations were top-notch, and every detail was thoughtfully handled. They took all the planning stress off our shoulders, allowing us to fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of the Camino. If you, your family, or group are looking for an unforgettable travel experience, Adventuredesk is the way to go!
I’ve had the best experience with AdventureDesk! Prior to working with them I was planning all the logistics for our trips and I’m glad to have this off my plate and in the capable hands of Matt and his team. Excellent service, follow through and communication. They went above and beyond to make sure my group had an unforgettable experience!
Had an AMAZING time in Peru! Matt, with AdventureDesk, had so much insight and knowledge of Peru. He helped facilitate an unforgettable experience for our group. His connections with the local community is incredible! I would HIGHLY recommend AdventureDesk for group travel, retreats, and other adventures that seek a curated experience.
