Day 3 Cycle the Sacred Valley (B,L)
This ride is perfect for anyone who enjoys getting out on a bike: its versatility means it can be easily adapted to suit every level and age. It’s an incredibly scenic ride, combining Andean mountain passes, gentle descents and a lovely amble through the heart of the Sacred Valley of the Incas.

We begin with a visit to Pisac. At this small town based in the Sacred Valley of the Incas we can stop for a stroll around the lovely plaza and artisan market stalls. Here we unload the bikes, kit up and begin the dirt track ride down into the Andean village of Taray and the start of the alternative Sacred Valley descent. This lovely dirt track undulates between local villages and haciendas, where we can see traditional farming methods still in use against the beautiful backdrop of glaciated mountains and Inca ruins. We stop for a picnic lunch en-route. The support vehicle will be on hand for the final section, allowing us to carry on through the villages of Qoya, Lamay and Calca. If feeling strong we can then continue to Urubamba or even Ollantaytambo itself.Night at Hotel Pakaritampu (Standard Room)

Day 4 Trek the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu (B,L)
You start the day with an early transfer to catch the train towards Machu Picchu. Jumping off at km104 you pass through the control point and begin your Inca Trail trek. First, you visit the recently restored ruins of Chachabamba before gradually ascending through tropical cloud forest up towards the base of Wiñay Wayna. Here you climb more steeply on old Inca stairways through these beautiful terraces, stopping to explore the various buildings and water features.
Here we can enjoy our packed lunch, with a great view. You then continue on perhaps the loveliest part of the whole Inca Trail. Lush vegetation flanks you on either side, the scent of wild orchids fills the air, and all around you brightly coloured tropical songbirds fill your ears with song.
Soon you will reach a final set of stairs to arrive at Inti Punku, the gateway of the Sun. As you step through the old stone gate-way, Machu Picchu appears laid out before your eyes. After plenty of photos, you carry on past this wonder of the world to catch the bus down to the lively town of Machu Picchu Pueblo and a well-deserved hotel and shower.
Total hiking distance: 11 km
Whilst walking all you need is your daypack as your over-night luggage will be transferred to your hotel in Machu Picchu town to await your arrival.

Day 5 Explore Machu Picchu and return to Cusco (B)
Today you explore the pinnacle of Inca engineering - Machu Picchu. For years it was lost to the jungle. Rediscovered in 1911 by the Yale professor Hiram Bingham, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983 and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World in 2007, Machu Picchu exceeds all expectations.
This astounding site lies in an even more astonishing location. Perched high on an inaccessible hilltop it is protected by huge cliffs and the raging Urubamba river. Things are slightly easier now than in the time of the Incas and so you start your day with a twenty minute bus ride up to the site.
Please discus with your guide exactly what time you wish to arrive at Machu Picchu. The guided tour takes around two hours leaving you a few hours free to wander amongst the old Inca walls and just sit and take in the scale of the place on your own. For those who want to walk a bit more, you could take the hour long trail up to the Sun Gate, or a shorter trail to visit the Inca Bridge which once spanned a sheer cliff face.
Eventually the time comes to catch the bus down to Machu Picchu Pueblo and board your train back along the Urubamba River. The scenery is beautiful and the train jolts softly along, allowing you to sit, stare out the window and reflect on all you have seen. Return to Cusco and your hotel.

How Difficult is it?
 We classify this trip as:
  • Paddlesport - ‘Intro’… Anyone who doesn’t mind getting wet can do this. Rafting can get quite adventurous, but the  experienced and qualified guides will be on hand to keep you (mostly) the right way up. The only parameter is that you are mobile enough to help us get you back in the boat.
  • Mountain Bike - ‘Intro’… These trips are as much about experiencing Mountain Biking as they are about the time spent not on the bike – the scenery, the culture, the environment! The only pre-requirement is that you can ride a bike! The experienced guides will help you with gaining experience and confidence on your bike. 
  • Trek - ‘Intro’… This trek is about what you’ll see along the way. The ‘nature’ of trekking does of course include the risk of trips and slips, etc. Do take extra care on steep descents and on the occasions where there may be an ‘edge!’ – don’t be shy to ask for support from your guide – it’s what they are there for! There is no real need to have any experience of trekking for this trip.
"I had a fabulous time and your team was exceptional. Jose (our trail guide) was so very patient and knowledgable. I hope to take another South American trip very soon! Take care" Maryanne

"I wanted to let you know that everything was fantastic. The guides were friendly and informative. I felt safe letting my 13 year old nephew go to the front of the pack with one guide while I lagged behind.  Our drivers were great too. And, I really enjoyed the food. I was expecting something comparable to hotdogs on a couple of our lunches and I was very surprised at how good our food was.
 
My only criticism is that I didn’t feel like it was an introductory sporting tour. It was definitely more moderate. I wasn’t able to finish the biking but I completed everything else although sometimes I had doubts. So, if I were to change anything about it, It would just be how the tour was marketed as an introductory sporting tour. My nephew had a fantastic time. He didn’t think anything was the least bit difficult." Diane
