Description

The Inka Jungle tour is a circuit tour with adventure sports (mountain biking, canoeing, zip-lining and hiking) for 4 days, with the final destination being Machu Picchu. Optionally we offer access to an additional mountain: “Montaña Vieja” or “Huayna Picchu”.

In the afternoon we arrive at the thermal baths of Cocalmayo, where we enjoy hours in this famous resort of medicinal thermal waters.

This walk follows the route of the train until we arrive at Aguas Calientes. Called “Machu Picchu Pueblo” this is where we will stay, in comfortable local lodging at the foot of the marvel.

After entering the Machu Picchu at around 6:00 am, hopefully we can witness the sunrise. Once inside we will have a guided tour done by our guide who will share all kinds the historical knowledge with us for about two hours. After this our guide bides us farewell and leaves us inside the archaeological complex so that each participant has time to explore and take photographs. Travelers who planned ahead and were able to purchase a ticket for one of the additional mountains, Huaynapicchu or Old Mountain (+$15 at booking), will enjoy a spectacular aerial view of the archaeological complex of Machu Picchu at its best. This tour normally takes about 3 hours, but is worth the effort as the scenery is indescribable.
