Uncover the remote and remarkable Inca routes of northern Peru for 12 Days
You’ve heard of the Inca Trail, but what about the Great Inca Road? Made up of ancient Inca trade routes cutting through the Andes, the Great Inca Road is every bit as significant and special as its more famous counterpart – it just doesn’t have the crowds.
Tour Highlights:
- Hike on the ancient and little-visited trade routes of the Great Inca Road. Taking in seriously spectacular views of the Andes and visiting well-preserved yet remote Inca outposts.
- Get acclimatised to the altitude in the adventure hub of Huaraz. A low-key city surrounded by mountains, lakes and glaciers waiting to be explored on your included hikes.
- You’ll not only be accompanied by a local leader on your adventure – a traditional llama caravan will join you on the Great Inca Road, meaning you only need to carry a daypack.
- Your hiking journey comes to an end at the incredible Inca site of Huanuco Pampa. Where you’ll meet a local guide for a private tour of these significant ancient ruins.
- Visit the intriguing Caral-Supe archaeological site. Left behind by a civilisation pre-dating the Inca and built at the same time as the first Egyptian pyramids.
