About this experience
You have heard about the Inca Trail, which is one the most famous routes to get to royal grounds of Machu Picchu. The Inca Trail crosses selected points of the beautiful Inca sacred valley that is unique for its amazing landscapes. We have a comfortable 2 day Machu Picchu trek to travel as a group and still it will give you a rewarding perspective on how to get to such amazing ancient city full of legends.
The 2 day trek, does not contemplate camping or hiking, instead you will travel by a Expedition train and enjoy the superb scenario of the Inca Valleys until you get to a point to disembark and from a designated location you will walk the trail and get to the 'Sun gate'. The views from this panoramic landscape will encourage you to finish, one in a lifetime experience, the Machu Picchu trek.
The 2 day Machu Picchu trek is one of the Machu Picchu deals to get on board.
