After approximately three hours of travel, we will arrive at this mystical place, where our guide will perform a brief Inca ceremony before beginning the downhill biking experience. The descent will last about three hours until we reach Huamanmarca, an archaeological site, arriving around 1:30 p.m., where you will enjoy a delicious lunch.
Afterwards, we will dive into the adventure of rafting, where the Salkantay and Urubamba rivers merge to form the great Vilcanota River. Throughout the experience, you will navigate Class III and IV rapids, enjoying a unique and memorable adventure. The day ends in Santa María, where you will spend the night in a charming tourist lodge.

Along the way, we will have several rest stops where the guide will explain the local flora and fauna, more than 1,000 meters above the river in the heart of the jungle.
We will then descend along the Inca Trail until we reach Quellomayo, where we will have lunch by the river and enjoy a short rest.
Afterward, we will continue hiking for another two hours until we arrive at the Cocalmayo hot springs, and then head toward the capsule hotel suspended on the mountainside. This accommodation in Santa Teresa is the only one of its kind in the world: glass domes hanging from a cliff more than 500 meters above the river. This is a truly unique experience, sleeping in a mountain capsule with all modern comforts while observing the Milky Way from the comfort of your bed.
