Day 1: Cusco – Abra Malaga – Biking – Rafting – Santa Maria – Eco Terra Lodge
  1. Urubamba
    3h
    Embark on an exhilarating 3-hour downhill biking journey through the Andes, capturing the beauty of snow-capped mountains, and the tropical forest where the Peruvian Amazon begins.

    Throughout the ride, relish in the changing climate from cold to tropical as you feast your eyes on small streams and stunning sights.
Day 2: Santa Maria – Inca Trail – Zip Line – Hot Springs – Santa Teresa.
  1. Santa Teresa
    10h
    Embark on a 7-hour trek through the lush rainforest.

    Afterward, we will have some free time to relax in hammocks and rest our legs before continuing our trek for another 3 hours. Along the way, we will encounter farms, waterfalls, and rivers (one of which we will cross via cable car). By around 4 PM, we will reach the Santa Teresa hot water springs, where you can unwind and soak in the crystal-clear pools with varying temperatures. The serene ambiance created by the river and starry skies at night make it the perfect spot to relax.
Day 3: Santa Teresa – Ziplinng – Hidroelectrica – Aguas Calientes
  1. Santa Teresa
    5h
    On the third day, thrill-seekers can partake in zip-lining, which involves riding along four different cables and a suspension bridge for about two hours. We’ll kick off the day with breakfast and then join a reputable operator for this activity. Afterward, we’ll head to the government-controlled hydroelectric station to enter the Machu Picchu National Park, also known as the Machu Picchu Historic Sanctuary, where we’ll savor a fantastic lunch.

    Then, we’ll trek for three hours alongside the train track to reach Aguas Calientes town by 5 pm, concluding the Inca Jungle Trek. However, the highlight of the trip awaits us – Machu Picchu, the imposing mountain that looms over Aguas Calientes. The picturesque town will serve as the backdrop for our early morning ascent on Day 4, granting us the ultimate reward for our three-day journey.
Day 4: Machu Picchu – Cusco

    3h
    The most awaited day by all… MACHU PICCHU. You will wake up around 4:00 am to prepare for the hike to the main entrance of Machu Picchu. Each person will be provided with a packed breakfast, and we will begin the half-hour hike to Puente “Ruinas”, After passing the first checkpoint, we will climb the stairs for about an hour to arrive at the main gate of Machu Picchu at 6:00 am. Once inside Machu Picchu, your guide will lead you directly to the ideal place to witness the sunrise and capture photographs. Then, your local guide will give you a tour of the main sectors of the citadel, which will last approximately 2 hours. Throughout this guided tour, you will learn about the history and culture of the Inca Empire.
