When you travel on Incas & Amazon, you'll be staying at small hotels/guesthouses and using a variety of local transport, from coaches, trains and planes, to hiking and canoe.

There are two options, a 15 day trip or a 19 day trip which includes the Amazon Jungle.

Days 3 to 4
Ica Desert
- visit the Tacama winery and also try Peru's national drink, Pisco.
Oasis of Huacachina - a palm fringed lake surrounded by impressive sand dunes, relax on the beach, go for a swim and then there's the option to head out on a custom made dune buggy and roar across the desert sands to the top of enormous dunes and sand board down them! Tonight, sit around our desert campfire while your guides cook up a storm, followed by a night sleeping out under the stars.

Day 5

Days 10 to 13
Inca Trail
- a trek of 4 days, which combines stunning mountain views and Inca ruins which anyone of reasonable fitness can master.
Machu Picchu - finally we reach the world famous ruins in all their glory, well worth the trek of the previous 3 days!

Our route back to Cuzco for all options is by train.

After a free day in Cuzco, those on the 15 day trip fly back to Lima where the trip ends on arrival. For those on the 19 day trip, this is another free day to relax, explore Cuzco or for the adventurous to go white water rafting on the Urabamba River.
