Machu Picchu & Inca Trail: Quick Answers

How many days does the Inca Trail take?

The classic Inca Trail runs 4 days. We also offer a 2-day short Inca Trail and a 1-day version for travelers with less time.

Do I need a permit for the Inca Trail?

Yes. Permits sell out months ahead, especially for July and August. We book the permit as part of every Inca Trail package.

What is the difference between the Inca Trail and a trip by train?

The Inca Trail is a multi-day hike ending at the Sun Gate. Our Machu Picchu by train tours skip the hike and reach the ruins the same day.

When is the best time to hike to Machu Picchu?

The dry season, April to October, has the most stable weather. The trail closes every February for maintenance.

Can I do a private Inca Trail tour?

Yes. We run private Inca Trail departures, with your own guide and schedule instead of a shared group.
