Inca Trail treks, treks and tours to Machu Picchu.
A message from the owner:
At Death Woman Pass, 4215m.
My name is Jose Luis Martinez Yucra and I was born in Cusco city, Peru.
I spent my early years with my lovely mother, who taught me the ancient "Quechua", the language of the Incas, unfortunately the Peruvian Government do not support the learning of this pre-columbian language any more.
My mother taught me about lifestyle and ancient customs in the highlands of Cusco
After going to the secondary school I earned a degree in Tourism and I learned English too.
I have been working for the last 14 years as Tour Guide leading hundreds of groups of different nationalities mainly trekking through the different inca trails ending at Machu Picchu and also learning much more about the living culture of every village I passed by to share it to all my passionate tourists.
I love to share my knowledge of local tradition, history and culture with travelers from around the world. I am proud of my country and my heritage, and I know You will never forget your trip to Peru.
Our mission: The mission of Inca Trail treks is to provide a unique experience to travellers from around the world. For your comfort, we use a good quality equipment, and our experienced chefs serve local, delicious and nutritious meals.
Our professional team is personally connected to the land and to the local customers. All of our operations are conducted in a sustainable way, preserving our precious environment and giving back to our local communities.
Through food, language and history, Inca Trail treks makes every part of your journey a cultural experience.
My story: While working as a guide, I discovered that many tour companies around the globe overpriced tours and treks to Machu Picchu also mistreat their employees. Many hire guides from the cities or even from other countries, limiting the knowledge that they can offer to travelers. Porters are usually hired from the countryside, but they are often underpaid and poorly paid.
To make a positive change in the industry, I decided to start my small own tour operator with the priority of empowering guides and staff from small Andean communities.
Porters, the men who carry the luggage on the Inca Trail, are respected, paid well and treated fairly.
With this mission in mind, Inca Trail treks offers a variety of experiences to travellers. You can see the city of Cusco, the Sacred Valley, or Machu Picchu. You can hike popular trails that lead to Machu Picchu, or choose alternative trails to lesser-known communities and tourist sites. Whichever tour or package you choose, Inca Trail treks will make every part of your journey a cultural experience, bringing you homemade traditional foods, and even pointing out the constellations that sparkle in the clear Andean sky.
