  • 🏔️ Lares Trek to Machu Picchu

Looking for a more off-the-beaten-path way to reach Machu Picchu? The Lares Trek takes you through remote Andean valleys, high mountain passes, traditional Quechua communities, and breathtaking landscapes.

What makes this trek so special is the connection with local life. Along the way, you’ll encounter communities where traditional weaving, farming, and Andean culture are still part of everyday life.

After days of trekking through the mountains, the journey continues toward the ultimate highlight: Machu Picchu. A beautiful combination of adventure, culture, and unforgettable scenery. 🇵🇪✨

  • The people who make our journeys possible are often the ones we see the least.

They carry the equipment, prepare the meals and work behind the scenes so thousands of travellers can experience the Inca Trail.

The recent death of porter Gabriel Ríos Mamani is a tragic reminder that we need to pay more attention to the working conditions of the people at the heart of tourism.

Choosing a responsible company is about more than a beautiful itinerary or a good price. It means asking who is behind the experience and whether they are treated with the respect, support and protection they deserve.

Travel can have a positive impact – but only if we care about the people who make it possible. #apusperu #responsibletravel
