Group Size: Approx. 24.
Notes: Which Inca Trail? When you book this trip, you will have a choice of either the Community Inca Trail or the Classic Inca Trail. The costs for each are included, but you must tell us when you book, if you want to book the Classic Inca Trail. If you do not tell us this you will automatically be booked onto the Community Inca Trail. Take a look at our guide to the Inca Trails and Machu Picchu. If you would rather not trek at all, we can arrange a non-trekking package instead, including an overnight stay in the Sacred Valley and a whole day at Machu Picchu. Because of its nature, this itinerary may vary: occasionally road conditions are too adverse during the rainy season (Jan. & Feb.) to make the crossing from Uyuni to Argentina and we may have to change the route.
