1.Small Group 5 Days Salkantay and Machu Picchu by Llactapata Tour

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 88 reviews · 5 days (approx.) · from $593Our pick

A 5-day Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu via Llactapata and Aguas Calientes, with small-group pacing, horses, camping meals, and guided history.

“We celebrated our 20-year anniversary up on the Salkantay trail. The experience was phenomenal from the beauty of the place to the high quality of service by our guide Carlos, the cook, and the horseman. We really felt like everything was made to attend to our needs. Although it was challenging for first timers to hike in high altitude, we were able to go at our own pace and still enjoy the experience fully.”

5 days hiking Salkantay with glamping and cultural stops, then sunrise Machu Picchu and a scenic Vistadome/360° train back to Cusco.

“Fantastic trip! All of the staff were incredible. The food was delicious and better than the restaurant food we had in aquas calientes. Cesar was a brilliant guide and looked after us really well. Some highlights. Salkantay mountain standing over our campsite first night. The night sky first night. The very distant view of macchu picchu on the fourth night. Some tips - you need cash in Peru. Be prepared. Altitude was a problem on the first day of the trip and medication (acetazolamide) helped those who had it.”

6.Wonderful Cusco 5-Day Tour with Entrance to Machupicchu

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 46 reviews · 5 days (approx.) · from $610

A 5-day Cusco tour packed with Sacred Valley highlights, a guided Machu Picchu day, and Vinicunca mountain colors—plus train and meals.

“I bought a 5 day package in Cuzco and the truth the Montecristo hotel was disappointing with a horrible buffet. As for the tours when not knowing Peru the first was Valle Sagrado, in my opinion it is not worth much, they did not offer me the mountain of colors, honestly I did not know that it was close but they should include it. Machu Pichu amazing. And in terms of value for money I found it expensive for everything offered.Auto-translated”
