Machu Picchu
Explore the iconic destination of Machu Picchu with a unique perspective on a multi-day adventure tour. Our trips range from hiking the famous Lares and Inca trails to multisport adventures across Peru.
Billed as ‘The Lost City of the Incas,’ Machu Picchu is the crowning jewel of Peruvian adventure. One of the most photogenic human settlements of all time, the ruins reside on a mountain ridge 2,000 feet above the Urubamba River just itching for exploration. Historians believe it was built in the 1400’s by Pachacútec, the ruler of the kingdom of Cusco.
Hidden above the clouds, the stone village was a self-contained Inca settlement stretching across five square miles of Peruvian mountain range. Known for its stellar skyline, Machu Picchu once served as an astronomical observatory to the Inca people. After the Inca’s clash with the Spanish Conquistadors, Machu Picchu fell out of public knowledge for centuries. It was ‘rediscovered’ in 1911 by Hiram Bingham after hearing rumors of a hidden Inca city in the hills of Peru. Machu Picchu had been mostly uninhabited since the fall of the Incan empire five centuries prior.
Today is a remnant of stunning beauty and rich history enjoyed by travelers all over the world.
