Santa Teresa Hot Springs was one of the highlights after a weary hike up the mountain pass to the highest point and ascending down the other side of the pass the…

    Dear Inca Trail Reservations , Thank you all so much for the trip. It was more than I could have asked for. I had some friends that were in Cusco recently and did a single day trek to Machupicchu. They had a good time but realized that without a guide they did not learn much…
