BEST TRIP EVERRRR!
This was one of the best trip I’ve ever taken! It was definitely life changing and I learned so much on this trip with the local people and from our best tour guide ever, Jorge C. Jorge was so friendly and knowledgeable in every way in this trip and made it more special. We all really connected and had a very good time learning about Machu Picchu. It was so adventurous and challenging but definitely worth it.

MINISTRY OF CULTURE EXPANDS THE CAPACITY FOR MACHU PICCHU FOR HOLY WEEK
The Ministry of Culture has approved, exceptionally, the increase in capacity for the Machu Picchu site, from 4,500 to 5,000 people per day, during Holy Week, between March 28th, 29th, 30th, and 31st, 2024.
The sale of the additional 500 tickets per day will be carried out through the our booking form (salkantaytrek.org/book), starting today, March 22th, 2024, until the stock runs out.
This is a pilot plan aimed at evaluating what will be the dynamic capacity that will be applied in the coming months.
Additionally, due to preservation work being carried out and the installation of surveillance cameras that will allow greater control of visitors.
It is worth noting that tickets can also be purchased in person at the Machu Picchu Cultural Center, where 1,000 tickets per day are available.
It should be noted that the tickets available at the Machu Picchu Cultural Center are purchased for visiting the site the following day. Therefore, it is important that in the morning they can obtain their attention ticket and, in the afternoon, present it from 3:00 p.m. onwards to purchase their tickets to enter the Machu Picchu site.
The prices of tickets to the Machu Picchu citadel, in their promotional rate for Peruvian visitors and those from the member countries of the Andean Community (Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Colombia), are S/32 for adults, as well as S/16 for higher education students and minors between 3 and 17 years old. This is for entry times to Machu Picchu of 6:00 a.m., 7:00 a.m., 3:00 p.m., and 4:00 p.m.
The rate for Peruvian visitors and those from the Andean Community (Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Colombia) for other entry times is S/64 for adults, S/32 for higher education students, and minors aged 3 to 17 years old.
Meanwhile, the general rate for foreign visitors is S/152 for adults, S/77 for higher education students, and S/70 for minors aged 3 to 17 years old.

Tour: 2 day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
Guide: Jesus Valdivia
Departure: March 12th 2024
This itinerary is rated moderate and should only be undertaken by people who are fairly fit and take regular exercise. The trek starts at 2100m (KM 104) and climbs to 2700m (Wiñay Wayna) before descending to 2400m (Machu Picchu). Since the trek is carried out at a much lower altitude than the Short 2 day Inca Trail trek you do not need to worry about acclimatisation as much, although many people still find themselves short of breath when arriving at Wiñay Wayna so this trek should certainly not be considered an easy option.

Tour: 4 day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
Guide: Franco Guillen Sanchez
The Classic Inca Trail to Machu Picchu 4 days route is along hand-hewn stone stairs and trails through sumptuous mountain scenery and amazing cloud forest, past rushing rivers and dozens of Inca ruins. The zone is inhabited by rare orchids, 419 species of birds, and even the indigenous spectacled bear. The trek begins at Qorihuayrachina near Ollantaytambo- more easily described as Km 88 of the railway from Cusco to Aguas Calientes. The 43 km (26-mile) route passes three formidable mountain passes, including the punishing "Dead Woman's Pass", to a maximum altitude of 4,200m (13,800 ft.). Most groups enter the ruins of Machu Picchu at sunrise on the fourth day, although others, whose members are less keen on rising at 3:30am to do it, trickle in throughout the morning.

Tour: 2 day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu
The trek starts at Km 104 (104 kilometers along the railway from Cusco) and involves a four hour walk uphill to Wiñay Wayna and a couple of hours further to Machu Picchu making it ideal for trekkers wanting to experience at least a part of the Inca Trail but haven't got the time (or energy) to complete the full 4 day trek.

Inka Trail expedition 2023
The trip was amazing! The staff members did a fantastic job; everything went smoothly and we enjoyed every moment of the journey. Everyday of the Inka Trail was a wonderful experience, gifted with the opportunity to get to know my companions a bit more as well as meeting other people, from other agencies, who were also walking on the same path: the Qhapaq Ñan.
Furthermore, the porters and the chef did an excellent job. We couldn't have made it without their help. They did such a terrific effort to make sure we, the clients, were always confortable, specially after those four to five hours of longwalks. The food was delicious and it was served with such a deep concern and love. Every dish had a decoration on the plate, the napkins, the table, everything looked beautiful whenever we sat at the table to eat. I will never forget those moments, honestly, they were priceless.
I sincerely recommend this agency: Inka Trail Expeditions Peru. It offers a fabulous service, one of a kind, and it delivers all the expectations that a tourist, national (from Peru) or international (from abroad) would expect. I hope that future clients enjoy this unforgettable adventure like I did. It's really quite something!
