INCA JUNGLE 3 Days

Early in the morning, we will pick you up from your hotel to start our journey in our private vehicle towards the Sacred Valley, passing through the typical towns of Chincheros and Ollantaytambo. We will then arrive at Abra Malaga, located at an altitude of 4,230 m / 13,877.953 ft, where we will begin the downhill bike ride for approximately 4 hours. Along the route, we will be able to observe various archaeological sites such as Inkatambo and Huamanmarca, as well as small villages, fruit fields, rivers, and streams. At the appropriate time, we will enjoy our outdoor lunch, and after a short rest, we will continue until we reach the town of Santa Maria, located at an altitude of 1,430 m / 4,691.601 ft. This is where the bike tour ends, and from this point, we will take a bus to Santa Teresa. In this place, we will enjoy dinner and spend the night at a lodge.

Optional:

• Huayna Picchu: If you want to add Huayna Picchu to your adventure, with its spectacular views, this must be booked in advance and costs an additional $25 per person. It takes 45 minutes to reach the summit and is quite a challenge.
• Machu Picchu Mountain: Another option is to climb Machu Picchu Mountain, which takes 90 minutes uphill and is very challenging. It costs an additional $15 per person. This is probably the most beautiful and spectacular viewpoint, where you can enjoy breathtaking views.
• Buffet Lunch: We recommend the MAPI Restaurant ($20.00 additional).
