Experience the Best Route to Machu Picchu
You can be part of this great adventure in the Inca Jungle tour, following the same paths that the Incas used long ago, but this time we will do it with a descent by bicycle, navigating in boats (rafting) and with a walk in the high jungle of Cusco, accompanied by our very friendly and fun chaskis (tour guides) that will make this tour an unforgettable experience, which will lead us to a single destination which is to reach the greatest wonder of the Andean world ‘Machu Picchu’.
Day 1
We depart Cusco in the morning and head into the Sacred Valley, stopping briefly near Ollantaytambo before ascending to the impressive Abra Málaga pass at 4,316 meters. From here, an exhilarating downhill bike ride (2–3 hours) begins,

passing waterfalls, lush scenery, and fruit plantations, ending in Huamanmarca before continuing by vehicle to Santa María, where we spend the night in a local guesthouse.
Optional: White-water rafting in the afternoon.
