Another alternative to the Inca Trail Trek is this amazing Jungle Adventure, which offers the possibility of low altitude mountain biking, rafting, trekking and zip-lining to reach Machu Picchu. This heart stopping adventure is the perfect combination of an adrenaline pumping 3,000-meter mountain biking descent, followed by an exhilarating rafting trip on class III & IV rapids, trekking into the backwoods of the Andes and zip lining through the jungle canopy on your way to Machu Picchu. Pass through local villages to see the way of life in mountain communities such as Santa Teresa and Santa Maria. The ultimate ending to this excellent trip is a visit to the one and only Machu Picchu archaeological site!

Brief History of Machu Picchu & Advice: Machu Picchu was (relatively recently) "discovered" by American historian, Hiram Bingham, in 1911 while searching for the legendary "lost city of the Incas". Hiram Bingham and his local guides stumbled across the site which was then covered in thick vegetation which was later cleared revealing the magical mountain-top archaeological site and opening up the possibility for archaeologists to conduct research on the site by 1915. Whether arriving via Inca Trail or entering from Aguas Calientes don't miss the excellent photo opportunities from the following spots: Hut of the Caretaker of the Funerary Rock (a restored building with a thatched roof), Sacred Plaza with views of the Cordillera Vilcabamba in the distance and Rio Urubamba below. Take a short walk out to the Inca Drawbridge (30 minutes) and Inti Punku (45 - 60 minutes) for great views of the site as dawn breaks and the clouds lift over Machu Picchu.
DON'T FORGET THE ESSENTIALS: Original passport, visa (if applicable), insurance card, personal medications.
Travellers who booked their trip using one passport, then renewed or replaced it afterward, must carry the old passport they used to make the booking or a photocopy with them on the trip.
You will have a guide during the trek and on the Machu Picchu tour. However, during your bus and train transfers you will not be accompanied by a guide.

Don't do it during coronavirus. Not worth it. The activities are limited. I was not able to get my money's worth

Julito (Julio Crispin) nos acompaño en esta increible experiencia. Fui en septiembre de 2019 con mi novia, su hermana y su novio. Todo el viaje fue magico, la bajada en bici desde el Abra Malaga, la caminata por el qapac nan, las comidas tradicionales y finalmente Machu Picchu, que simplemente te quita la respiracion. La simpatia del guia y la gente del lugar, los hospedajes, las comidas... no podria haber soñado una experiencia mejor.

WHAT AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!!!
We completed the 4 day Jungle Adventure trek with our tour guide Vidal, I cannot thank Vidal enough for his caring nature and the wealth of knowledge he provided us.
It was truly an incredible experience, we saw some incredible landscapes and were educated Peru's culture and history. Vidal happily and insightfully answered all of my questions (there were many) about different fruits/animals etc. we'd see along our trek as well as ensuring we were always safe and aware of our surroundings. I honestly find it difficult to pick a favourite part of the jungle adventure as I had an absolute blast each and every day, but I can say the downhill bike riding was EPIC (!!!!!) and I really loved the ziplining too.
Thank you so much for such an incredible experience Vidal, I cannot recommend you highly enough!
