Exactly what is covered in your Sacred Valley & Inca Trail 3D/2N tour — and what to budget separately.
A few essentials we recommend to make your Sacred Valley & Inca Trail 3D/2N day the most rewarding possible.
Day 2 needs a Short Inca Trail permit under your passport — book ahead. The first day in the Sacred Valley helps you acclimatize. Bring layers, a rain jacket and broken-in shoes.
The hike is rated moderate: 3 hours uphill + 1.5 hours back down. If you can walk steadily for 4–5 hours at home, you'll be fine. Horses are available at the trailhead (~ US $20) if needed.
Dry season: April to October. Skies are clearer, trails firm, colors most vibrant. Avoid the rainy season (Dec–Mar), when colors mute under cloud cover. We run tours year-round but recommend the dry months.
The Andean sun is intense at 5,000 m. Bring sunscreen SPF 50+, a wide-brim hat, sunglasses, lip balm with SPF, and dress in layers. Pre-dawn is below freezing; midday can hit 18°C in the sun.
Free cancellation up to 30 days before the tour. In case of dangerous weather (snowstorms, road closures), we'll offer a free reschedule or full refund. Safety always comes first.
Travel light but smart. Here's exactly what we recommend bringing for a comfortable, safe day at altitude.
