5-Day Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu

Description

This 5-day Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu is a spectacular hike in the Andean mountains combined with a unique Peruvian food experience. Each day, flora and fauna will change completely so that one day you are looking at one of the highest mountains in Cusco and the next day you are in the jungle!

Compared to standard tours where you sleep in tents and eat food that is simple to prepare, this trek is completely different. You will be accompanied by real chefs and their assistants that prepare delicious food for you. Also, you will sleep in comfortable beds each night.
