Sacred Valley of the Incas and Machupicchu.

Medium

In this trip we will enjoy the most spectacular natural attractions, of this famous and sacred valley, varying panoramas with an important breadth of unevenness, in a very exciting route; with descents from the snowy peaks to the rainforest. Throughout the tour we will discover imposing archeological centers and the mystical citadel of Machupicchu, which we will appreciate from different angles by trekking to its magical mountains.

Note: whoever wants it, can start this trip (which we have offered since 1998), in the city of La Paz, Bolivia, a week before and appreciate the charms of Lake Titicaca, among other attractions – find more
