Key Information
Day 1
Arrive in Cusco
Welcome to Cusco, the historic heart of the Inca Empire, perched at an impressive 11,000ft above sea level. On arrival, your local host will whisk you away to your spectacular lodging at Aranwa Cusco Boutique Hotel. This beautifully restored colonial mansion blends traditional charm with modern comforts, offering you an oasis in the city as you begin to acclimatize. In the afternoon, you'll meet your fellow adventurers for a welcome briefing, where your local guide will walk you through the exciting journey ahead, answer any questions, and ensure you're all set for the journey ahead. After settling in, you'll gather for a welcome dinner at Organika. Known for its commitment to organic, locally sourced ingredients, Organika promises a fresh and vibrant culinary experience, the perfect introduction to Peruvian flavors. Enjoy a relaxed evening as you settle into the rhythm of the Andes. If you’ve got time, consider arriving a day or two early to help with acclimatization.
Day 2
Explore the ancient ruins of the Sacred Valley
Today, you’ll explore the Sacred Valley, once the agricultural, spiritual, and political heartland of the Inca Empire. You’ll see why as you visit two of its most remarkable sites: Ollantaytambo and Pisac. Wander through ancient ruins, trace the lines of terraced hillsides, and follow cobbled streets that haven’t changed much in centuries. From Pisac’s impressive archaeological complex to Ollantaytambo’s massive fortress and temple, both offer a fascinating glimpse into Inca engineering and culture. After a full day of discovery, you’ll head back to your hotel in Cusco. The evening’s yours, maybe grab dinner at a local spot and get some rest before your journey into the high Andes continues.
Day 3
Trek to Humantay Lake (13,780ft)
Hiking
Grab an early breakfast as your Salkantay adventure truly begins today. You’ll be picked up from your hotel around 6:00 AM and driven through the mountains, with a short stop in Mollepata where you can grab an optional second breakfast. From there, you’ll continue to Challacancha, the official starting point of your trek. Once your gear is loaded onto the horses, you’ll set off towards Soraypampa (12,795ft), the site of your first epic dome camp. The trail undulates gently through a glacier-carved valley, following an ancient Inca water channel still used by local farmers. At Soraypampa, you’ll settle into your sky dome and enjoy a well-earned lunch. Later, you’ll head out on a rewarding hike to Humantay Lake (13,780ft). It’s not far, but the steep, rocky path and high altitude call for a slow, steady pace. At the top, you’ll find brilliant turquoise waters backed by the towering Humantay glacier - a striking sight. After soaking it all in, you’ll return to camp for dinner, sunset views and a peaceful night under the stars.
Day 4
Crossing the Salkantay Pass (15,190ft)
Hiking
Prepare for the most demanding and rewarding day of your trek. You’ll start early, climbing steadily towards the Salkantay Pass (15,190ft). This high point of the route takes you through stark alpine landscapes, with the towering peaks of Salkantay looming above. At the top, you’ll be treated to sweeping views across the Andes, a proper moment to pause and take it all in. From here, the trail descends sharply as you leave the icy heights behind and enter the warmer, greener cloud forest. The shift in climate and scenery is striking, the air thickens, the vegetation grows denser and the sounds of the forest return. By evening, you’ll reach the quiet village of Collpapampa, where your next mountain dome awaits. Expect a warm welcome, a satisfying dinner and a well-earned rest surrounded by the sounds of the forest.
Day 5
Cloud forests, coffee, and thermal baths
Your trek continues into the heart of the Peruvian cloud forest. Following the Santa Teresa River, you’ll pass through lush greenery, avocado and banana plantations, and cascading waterfalls as the landscape shifts around you. The trail winds towards Lucmabamba, where your final dome stay is tucked into a tranquil spot in the forest. You’ll arrive in time for lunch, then head to a nearby coffee farm where a local grower will walk you through the process, from picking and drying to roasting and brewing. You’ll get a fresh cup of the region’s best, straight from the source. Later, you’ll visit the Santa Teresa hot springs for a soak in naturally heated pools before returning to camp for dinner beneath the trees.
Day 6
Trek to Aguas Calientes via Llactapata
Hiking
You'll start the day walking a section of the legendary Inca Trail. It begins with a steady two-hour climb, offering sweeping views over the Santa Teresa Valley as you make your way to Llactapata (8,858ft). This lesser-visited Inca site sits directly across from Machu Picchu, and your guide will share its history and cultural significance. With a bit of luck, you'll catch your first glimpse of Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu in the distance. From Llactapata, you'll descend for a quick lunch at a local restaurant before continuing to Hidroeléctrica. Here, you'll board a scenic train to Aguas Calientes, the lively town at the foot of Machu Picchu. Once there, check into your boutique hotel and take some time to unwind. You might opt for a nap or a wander through town, depending on your energy levels.
Day 7
Machu Picchu and panoramic return
Hiking
Hiking
Driving
Today marks the final day of your trek: a visit to the iconic Machu Picchu. A UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, it's best experienced early, when the light is soft and the crowds are few. You'll explore the citadel on a two-hour guided tour, visiting sacred temples, terraces, dwellings, and crop fields, while your guide shares the stories and engineering feats that continue to puzzle archaeologists today. Afterward, return to Aguas Calientes for lunch before boarding the Vistadome Panoramic Train for the journey back to Cusco. With glass ceilings and wide windows, the train offers uninterrupted views of the Urubamba River and surrounding valleys, a fitting way to end your adventure. Back in Cusco, a private transfer will take you to the Aranwa Cusco Boutique Hotel. After checking in, you’ll gather for a final group dinner - the perfect moment to toast the journey you’ve just shared.
Day 8
Time to head home
After your incredible adventure to Machu Picchu via the Salkantay pass, it’s time to head home. A private transfer will collect you from your hotel and take you to the airport in good time for your onward journey.

Transfers
Your host will arrange to pick you up on your arrival and drop you off in time for your departing flight (but please note that if you arrive early in the morning, your room may not be ready for check-in, as the standard check-in time is 1:00 PM). A welcome briefing is typically held at 6:00 PM on Day 1, so we recommend arriving in the afternoon to ensure you don’t miss this important session. Your airport transfer is included even if you arrive before Day 1 of the trip – just share your flight details with your host in advance.
Travel options
There are currently no direct international flights from Europe or the US into Cusco. Flights generally involve one or two changes and go via Lima. If you prefer to break up the journey, you could consider flying into Lima a day early and booking an onward flight to Cuzco the following day. Airport hotels are available in Lima or, if you have more time to spare, why not stay in the popular Miraflores district of Lima and use this as a base to explore the city? See Optional Extras below for prices for extra nights in Cuzco or Lima before or after the trip.

What is the food like?
The food on this adventure is a genuine highlight, designed not just to refuel you, but to immerse you in the flavors of the Andes. From the moment you arrive in Cusco, you’ll be treated to vibrant, locally sourced meals that showcase Peru’s world-class culinary heritage. Your journey kicks off with a welcome dinner at Organika, one of Cusco’s most acclaimed restaurants, where ingredients are grown on-site and transformed into colorful, creative dishes that are as nourishing as they are delicious. On the trek itself, the experience continues at your premium eco-dome camps. Despite the remote setting, you’ll be amazed at what the trail chefs produce. Expect hot breakfasts with eggs, pancakes and fresh fruit, gourmet-style trail lunches, and multi-course dinners served in glass-domed dining rooms with mountain views. Dishes often include quinoa soups, grilled river trout, stuffed peppers, hearty stews, native potatoes and tropical fruit juices – all freshly prepared and beautifully plated. Snacks, hot drinks and herbal teas are always available, and every evening is rounded off with a fresh, wholesome dinner – the perfect way to replenish after a day on the trail. Back in Aguas Calientes and Cusco, you’ll have the chance to sample more of Peru’s rich culinary scene at boutique hotels and handpicked restaurants – the perfect complement to the wild adventure you’ll have just completed.
Vegetarians, vegans and other dietary requirements and allergies can be catered for – please just request this on your passenger info form.
What is the accommodation like?
You’ll stay at the 5-star Aranwa Cusco Boutique Hotel, a beautifully restored 16th-century colonial mansion that blends luxury hospitality with museum-quality art and antiques throughout. This unique hotel-museum concept offers a memorable first base for your adventure. Located just a short stroll from the main square, it’s perfectly placed for exploring the city’s historic center. You’ll stay in twin-share or double en suite rooms, with spa-like bathrooms featuring heated floors and rainfall showers, plus plush bedding and an oxygen-enriched air system for added comfort.
Along the Salkantay Trek
You’ll spend three nights in premium eco-domes along the Salkantay route. Each dome features twin beds with high-quality bedding, panoramic windows looking out to the mountains, and private en suite bathrooms with hot showers. The domes are designed to provide comfort and shelter in the remote, high-altitude settings, while still keeping you connected to the wild surroundings. After each day on the trail, you’ll return to camp to enjoy a freshly prepared three-course dinner in the communal dining dome – a cozy space where hot drinks and snacks are also available throughout your stay. To help you recharge, a short post-trek massage is included each afternoon – the perfect way to unwind before settling in for the night under Andean skies.
Aguas Calientes
In Aguas Calientes, you’ll stay at the 4-star Sumaq Machu Picchu Hotel, a premium riverside property nestled at the foot of the mountains. With its blend of Andean design and contemporary comfort, it’s the perfect place to unwind after reaching Machu Picchu. You’ll stay in a deluxe twin or double room with either a river or garden view, featuring thoughtful touches and modern amenities. The hotel also offers wellness amenities including a spa, jacuzzi and massage treatments – ideal for post-trek recovery. On some departures, you may stay instead at El Pueblo Hotel by Inkaterra – another stylish and well-located property in town.
This trip has been rated as Challenging
The Salkantay Trek is a physically demanding route that reaches higher altitudes and covers longer distances than the classic Inca Trail. The terrain is steep, uneven, and remote, with sustained ascents and descents over several consecutive days. The highest point is Salkantay Pass at 15,190ft, and the first three days of trekking are particularly tough due to both the altitude and duration.
You don’t need prior trekking experience, but you should feel comfortable hiking for six to 10 hours a day across four days, including steep climbs, technical descents, and long stretches at high altitude – up to 15,190ft. You’ll only carry a daypack, but the terrain and back-to-back hiking days make this a solid challenge. Two nights in Cusco at 10,990ft before the trek help with acclimatization – though arriving a day or two earlier is recommended if your schedule allows. With the right preparation, this trek is achievable for anyone with a decent base of fitness and a willingness to embrace the challenge. In the lead-up to your adventure, regular hill walking, hiking with a loaded daypack, or building endurance through running, cycling, or gym sessions will help get you trail-ready.
What will I need to carry?
Porter Service is included, so you’ll only need to carry a small daypack with essentials.
In the Andes, there are two main seasons – wet and dry. The dry season runs from May to September and is generally the best time to hike, with higher chances of clear skies and sweeping mountain views. Minimal rainfall means safer, less slippery trails, while cooler, more stable temperatures make for good hiking conditions. It’s also the busiest time of year, so expect more crowds at popular spots like Machu Picchu and Cusco. Nights in the mountains can get chilly, often dipping below freezing.
October, a shoulder month, sees fewer visitors but usually holds on to the dry weather – though you might get the occasional shower or patch of cloud. Whatever the season, high-altitude mountain weather can be unpredictable, so it’s essential to come prepared for a mix of sunshine and rain.
If you’re spending time in Lima before or after your hike, keep in mind that its coastal climate runs in reverse – expect gray skies when it’s dry in the mountains.
We’re still waiting to collect any reviews from other travellers on this trip. However, all our hosts go through an extensive vetting process to ensure that your adventure is awesome.

Meals

Tips
Tips are not included in the trip cost. These are entirely at your discretion, but there is an expectation to tip for good service. Your host can help with advice; however, we suggest the below as a guideline:
- If each porter/horseman were to receive 60–70 soles and your chef received 120–150 soles in total from the group, this would be considered a generous tip, and your team would be delighted!
- We recommend that your guide is tipped personally and would suggest between 60–100 soles per person.
Of course, you are free to tip more or less and the amount should be reflective of your perception of service and quality – a tip is not compulsory and should only be given when you receive excellent service.
Personal expenses
You know your own spending habits best, so please budget an appropriate amount for things like optional food and drinks, shopping and laundry.
Travel insurance
-
Travel insurance is compulsory for all of our adventures, and you'll need to provide your policy details before departure. Your insurance should offer adequate coverage for overseas medical treatment, evacuation/repatriation, your baggage and gear, and the specific activities involved in your adventure. We also recommend ensuring your policy includes cancellation and curtailment coverage, in case you're unable to join your trip due to unforeseen circumstances such as illness.
-
Standard travel insurance may not cover all the activities included in your adventure, so it's essential to check the details carefully. There are adventure-specific providers that many travelers have used in the past, such as True Traveller (for those based in the UK or Europe), or Rise + Shield, both of which offer coverage for a wide range of adventurous activities.
-
Please make sure your chosen policy meets your individual needs and covers all aspects of your trip.

We partner with the World Land Trust to ensure this trip achieves Net-Zero emissions. We also support their Buy an Acre program, helping local communities to buy and protect natural habitats in perpetuity.
What's the number?
It works out on average at 147kg of CO2 emissions per person, including all local transport, accommodation, food, activities, guides, staff and office operations.
The only thing it doesn’t include right now is flights and travel to the destination. We do make an overall estimate across all our customers separately, but as we don’t book flights, have customers from all corners of the world, and no way of reliably knowing their travel plans, we simply can’t include an individual number in the figure on display here. We’ve got a goal to fix that, so that when you book, there is a way to measure and mitigate the carbon emitted by your flight too.
But what does the number mean?
Yep, hard to picture eh? To give you an idea:
- Driving 1000 miles/1609km would be approximately 281kg of CO2 in an average car (or 140.5kg per person, if there were two of you in it).
- A return economy class flight between London and New York would be approximately 1619kg (1.66 tonnes) per person.
- 10 trees in a temperate forest are estimated to remove approximately 250kg of CO2 from the air in a period of 5-10 years.
What are we doing about it?
Our trips are relatively low-carbon by design, and we're working with all our hosts to develop long term carbon reduction plans. We partner with the World Land Trust to ensure this trip achieves Net-Zero emissions. We also support their Buy an Acre programme, helping local communities to buy and protect natural habitats in perpetuity, ensuring the protection of the reserve and its wildlife.
Want to know more?
Amazingly, no international travel company has ever publicly published their carbon measurements before, as far as we know. We believe that must change, quickly. So we’re openly sharing the method we used in the hope that other companies will be able to more easily follow suit and build on what we've done so far. You'll find it all here.
Your guides are highly experienced and trained to adapt to changing mountain conditions. If weather, trail conditions, or health issues require a change to the planned itinerary, they’ll make informed decisions with your safety and experience as the top priority. Alternative routes, transportation, or timing adjustments may be used if necessary, and your host team will keep you informed every step of the way.
You'll be accompanied by an experienced, English-speaking lead guide throughout the trek, with assistant guides added depending on group size. A dedicated support team, including chefs, porters, and horse handlers, will manage logistics, transport your luggage, and ensure everything runs smoothly at the dome camps.
Yes, it is possible to leave excess luggage items at your hotel in Cusco and pick them up at the end of the trip.
Clean drinking water will be provided for you each morning and at meals. In an effort to eliminate plastic waste, you must bring your own water bottle or hydration bladder with you. If you are concerned about the water quality, please feel free to bring additional water purification tablets.
Yes, horses are used by the local team to assist with the logistics of transporting food and camping gear. They are cared for on the trail by trained handlers within the porter service team. Your host in Peru has the accreditation to work with horses, and they take steps to ensure the welfare of horses by applying a maximum weight of 66 lbs per horse on a maximum of two trekking expeditions per month. Please be aware that you may encounter other local trekking companies while on the trail who sadly do not take the same stringent approach to animal welfare.
No, you don’t need a permit for the trek itself, but a permit is required to visit Machu Picchu – however, this is included in the trip price. Your host in Peru usually secures early entry permits (around 6:00 AM or 7:00 AM) to help you avoid the crowds, with each permit pre-purchased in your name. For late bookings, permits may only be available for a later time slot, meaning you could enter separately from the group. To increase your chances of securing a permit with the group, we strongly recommend booking early and providing your host with your full name, passport number, nationality, and date of birth as soon as possible and preferably at the time of booking.
This trip reaches elevations above 14,750ft, where the risks associated with Altitude Sickness (AMS) are higher, and where more serious conditions like HAPE (High Altitude Pulmonary Edema) and HACE (High Altitude Cerebral Edema) can occur.
Previous high-altitude experience doesn’t guarantee the same reaction every time, but it can be a helpful indicator. It gives you insight into how your body might respond, helps you recognize symptoms early, and prepares you mentally and physically for the demands of high-altitude trekking.
Your guide is trained to manage altitude risk by carefully managing the rate of ascent, monitoring group well-being, and taking action if anyone becomes unwell.
Before traveling, think about your own physical condition and consult a medical professional if you have concerns—especially if you have underlying health issues. If possible, arriving a day or two early at altitude is a great way to help your body adjust.
Your travel insurance must cover the maximum altitude reached on this trip and include emergency evacuation.
Sure can! Over 70% of our travellers travel solo, it’s a great way to meet like-minded people.
