The Lares Trek with One-Day Inca Trail
Embark on an incredible eight-day exploration through Peru's Lares trek with a taste of the iconic Inca Trail. Take a guided tour through the Sacred Valley, stopping at a women's weaving co-op before beginning your hike. The Lares Trek might not be as touristy but it's no less breathtaking with scenic views of lagoons, the snow-capped Chicon Mountain, Andean flora, and opportunities to meet local Quechua people along the way. A guided tour through Machu Picchu at sunrise, the best time to see the Lost City of the Incas, is a suitably stunning way to conclude your adventure.

Highlights
Visit a local pottery-making community in the Sacred Valley, wander the cobblestone streets of Ollantaytambo, stay overnight in a community-owned Indigenous village campsite, trek through local communities and beautiful Andean scenery, explore Machu Picchu on a guided tour
