Cusco, Peru
We're taking on the archaeological wonder that is Machu Picchu, and rounding out the adventure with a sneaky stint in South America's oldest continuously inhabited city of Cusco.
A Concentrated Dose of Adventure
Stay in charming Cusco for 2 weeks, set yourself up for comfortable work & explore the magic of this unique pocket of Peru! For the Machu Picchu experience, pick your choice between a 4-day hike or take the train through Sacred Valley and up to Machu Picchu in just 2 days for the ultimate adventure during your time in Peru.
A Two-fold Adventure in
A Magical Pocket of Peru
We’re going to hit the ground running with this one — or better yet, trekking. Yip, a 4-day trek (or train alternative) to the larger-than-life global phenomenon that is Machu Picchu. And we’re doing it with new friends that will become your lifetime buds. Dreamy, right?
And when we return, it will be to the mesmerizing Cusco. Detailed cathedrals, centuries-old Inca temples, quaint cobblestone alleys — Cusco feels like you’ve been sucked through a portal and plunged into a different lifetime.
Consider this unique experience a little different from our typical trip; a concentrated dose of adventure, topped-off with a work-friendly stint in the centre of the Incan world.
Some Important Details About this trip
Permits to Machu Picchu are limited and need to be secured in advance. Once you’ve confirmed your spot with us, and we’ve reached a minimum number of sign-ups, we will work to obtain your permit (subject to availability). With a tight number available to the public each year — and selling out fast — we suggest you reserve your spot with us ASAP.
Machu Picchu
The hike of all hikes.
This 4-day trek will have you unplug from the digital world, while you engage with an archeological experience of a lifetime. Machu Picchu, an ancient Incan citadel perched high in the Andes Mountains, is nothing short of mind-blowing. While there is mystery around its historical use, we do know that it’s sacred, astronomically aligned and has panoramic views like no other.
We’ve partnered up with a renowned, eco-friendly and fully licensed Peruvian tour operator to spend 4 days/3 nights taking on the Inca Trail. We’ll have it all: personal porters, trekking chef who will prep full board, high-quality equipment and comfortable gear. *Note: A moderate level of fitness is required. If you’d prefer to take the train, we can arrange that too.

The short answer: it’s considered to be a moderate level hike. That being said, it does last four days, and the higher altitude does add to the level of difficulty. So basically, while you don’t need any technical skills to make the trek, you should have a reasonable level of fitness.
If the trek isn’t quite your speed, as an alternative, we can arrange a train ride up to Machu Picchu.
