Offered in: English and 1 more

Our 4-Day Inca Jungle Trek stands out for blending adventure, culture, and nature into one unforgettable journey. Unlike the traditional Inca Trail, this route combines hiking with thrilling outdoor activities like biking, rafting, and zip-lining, creating a dynamic experience through the Andes and the edge of the Amazon jungle. We handle all the logistics—meals, accommodations, and tickets—so you can focus on the adventure.

Guided by an experienced professional, you’ll explore tropical valleys, coffee and coca plantations, rivers, and local villages, while enjoying the hospitality of the communities along the way. Each day ends with comfortable lodging and freshly prepared meals to keep you energized.

The trek culminates with your arrival at Machu Picchu. After four days of exploration and adrenaline, entering the citadel with your guide will be the ultimate reward. This is more than a trek—it’s an immersive journey combining adventure, history, and the magic of Machu Picchu.
