1.Small Group 5 Days Salkantay and Machu Picchu by Llactapata Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 88 reviews · 5 days · from $593Our pick

Small-group 5-day Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu via Llactapata, with camping, rural coffee stops, and a first-light guided citadel visit.

“We celebrated our 20-year anniversary up on the Salkantay trail. The experience was phenomenal from the beauty of the place to the high quality of service by our guide Carlos, the cook, and the horseman. We really felt like everything was made to attend to our needs. Although it was challenging for first timers to hike in high altitude, we were able to go at our own pace and still enjoy the experience fully.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 79 reviews · 5 days · from $655

5-day Salkantay trek with glamping, Pachamanca and coffee, Machu Picchu sunrise, and a scenic return by Vistadome or 360 train.

“Fantastic trip! All of the staff were incredible. The food was delicious and better than the restaurant food we had in aquas calientes. Cesar was a brilliant guide and looked after us really well. Some highlights. Salkantay mountain standing over our campsite first night. The night sky first night. The very distant view of macchu picchu on the fourth night. Some tips - you need cash in Peru. Be prepared. Altitude was a problem on the first day of the trip and medication (acetazolamide) helped those who had it.”
