Amazing 5D 4N Lares/Inca Trail trek!

Cannot recommend this company enough. As a solo female traveller I wanted a good experience and what I got were two great guides (Fletcher and Lucio) who made me feel safe and enabled me to take the trek at a safe pace. I hired walking poles, sleeping mat and sleeping bag from Alpaca, all were great quality. The food whilst camping was AMAZING and the trek was absolutely worth the money. I can't recommend Alpaca and the stunning Lares/Inca Trail enough.

A such great experience !

This experience was amazing. The route was very well balanced, filled with challenges and incredible landscapes. We were able to meet local people a few times. Frank the Tank was a great guide—friendly, always listening, and he managed a group with very different paces perfectly. We felt safe even though we were high up in the mountains. The sleeping spots were great, and the chef cook and his whole team made delicious meals for us. It was 4-star glamping! Everything went smoothly as planned. Frank also helped us discover Machu Picchu and its secrets. You can tell he takes great pride in sharing such a rich heritage!

Escaping real life

It was my first time hiking on a solo trip. As a woman, I felt supported and safe. Everything that is needed is stated in the details. This trip did not skip a beat. I would total recommend this trail to everyone I know. Food was amazing. Porters were great and Franklyn was the best guide that brought everything together. Couldn’t have asked for a better group or team of people. Truly amazing!

Totally recommended!

Fantastic experience in Lares, magnificently organized by Alpaca! Our guide was Soledad, who kept us informed at all times about the route plan and explained extensively about geography, fauna and flora, culture, and local traditions. The chef, assistant, and muleteers also deserve great recognition for making our lives so much easier, and the equipment provided by Alpaca (sleeping bags, mats, poles, and tents) was excellent. A highly recommended route due to the low number of other tourists and the direct and real contact with the native Andean communities.
