An exhilarating experience. But go with a company that looks after its porters properly. We chose Llama Path and they were awesome - see my review.

the service is good, well for the price, it should be always good, but it is very expensive. I do not understand the prices for this service.

The trail itself is amazing.......You need to be there to confirm its beauty. The archeological sites built by the incas are well blended with the nature. The Incas still rule!!!!!!!!!!

We are usually independent travelers, but the Inca Trail hike requires permits and special equipment, so we joined an organized tour with gAdventures. We are healthy, active 50-somethings. While considerably older than the others in our group, we had a terrific experience and thoroughly enjoyed the company of our international companions. Our guide (Rosabeth) was knowledgeable, fun and in charge.... More

Pabel was a great guide. The 4 day, 3 night hike was well paced, with a good warm-up day, then up and down Dead Woman's Pass on day 2. Day 3 was long, but not as hard as day 2. If you want the sun gate experience, either stay another day and come back,,but you will get nothing but cloud... More

A four day, three night trek with a party of ten friends. Our two guides (operated by Enigma, Cuzco) were excellent. Both spoke good English and the principal guide was a wealth of knowledge about the trail, the historical sites and the flora and fauna. All delivered with a lively sense of humour! He was also a good coach ensuring... More

The Inca Trail is one of those things you have to try to truly understand it. Difficult at times, with incredible views, lots of history and culture.. it's a great experience overall. We did a 4 day hike with Peru Treks. The food was AMAZING!! I couldn't believe what they could cook in that little camping tent! All my admiration... More
