      About this trip

      The Huchuy Qosqo Trek is the perfect trip for those short on time yet big on adventure! Our custom-designed 3-day itinerary combines a visit to the incomparable Machu Picchu with a Sacred Valley Peru trek through the less well-known but equally fascinating ruins at Huchuy Qosqo (“small Cusco”). You’ll follow ancient Inca trails that connect the local villages to Cusco, retracing their steps as you head from Cusco towards the Huchuy Qosqo ruins and then down to the Sacred Valley. On Day 3, we cap things off with a visit to Machu Picchu. 


      This is a clean up trek!


      Our Clean Up Treks are part of our commitment to Responsible Tourism and ecological travel in the Andes. These are fun group departures that will include litter pick up as we hike through beautiful, remote areas. The team will work on a rotational basis so that you’ll still have time to enjoy the beauty of your surroundings.

      I’m glad we decided to go with Apus Peru for the 4-day Classic Inca Trail Trek. From begin to end, everyone was attentive to making sure we had a seamless experience. I hade both Lorena and Sheree helping me with my booking. There were a lot of delays and changes on my end but they never ceased to check in and accommodate. The team of porters, chefs, and guide were so friendly and made the trek quite enjoyable! William was our guide and full of great energy and stories of the history of the Incas, the Spanish colonization, the fauna and flora unique to the Andes, and the culture of Peruvians today. He gave great advice of other places to visit in Peru. If you book a Trek, I highly recommend William! I don’t remember all the names of the porters and the sous chef, but our head chef, Mauricio, and head porter, Valentin, made sure we had a 5-star experience at each rest stop. Each time we were greeted with refreshments, a floral centerpiece, and 3-course meals that were delicious, nutritious, and presented in a way you’d think you were at a hotel and not camping. And who can forget the applause and cheering they gave each time we arrived! I loved each time we passed each other on the trail because they kept us upbeat and motivated! Hands down to the team for carrying all that equipment and keeping a positive environment for us! The tents were comfortable and kept us protected from the rain we got for two of the nights. I highly recommend Apus Peru! We saw some larger groups which would probably have been an experience on its own, but I loved our smaller group because we didn’t feel rushed at all. We were able to go on our own pace and enjoy every bit of the experience! I also love that Apus Peru uses our fees to support the Peruvian locals and the tradition of weaving. They also employ the husbands of the weavers as porters. I felt great knowing that we were all benefiting from this amazing experience!

      A perfect trip. We got in and up and down and out of Machu Picchu easily. Tours of Cusco and surrounding areas outstandng. Our tour guide, Greco, was thoughtful, knowlegeable and professional. Cannot thank him enough. The tour was very interesting and full of facts and historical contexts. Two well educated travelers were duly impressed. The food and accomodations were also excellent. Trains, drivers, meets and transfers all went off without a hitch. Booking and details were well-handled and communicated clearly. You felt at ease. A+ for Apus Peru and their staff.

      We really enjoyed our tour - thank you very much! Andrés and his family welcomed us wholeheartedly and let us participate in their unique craft and daily life. The food was delicious and they surprised us with a song and a birthday cake. We were able to buy some of their beautiful handmade textiles - well loved gifts and a cherished memory back home. Our guide Ofelia was excellent, so was our driver. The trip as well as the preparation for our tour was very well organized and we got lots of useful and interesting information. Our needs and wishes were at the center of the attention, even detours were possible. All in all it was far more than we expected. We recommend this tour to anyone who wants to experience something beautiful and unique far off the beaten track. We would love to join other trips from Apu Peru at some point in a hopefully not far away future.

      5 stars We were very well taken care of. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Besides of course seeing Macchu Pichu, we also visited several amazing archeological sites. The food and accommodations were excellent. I highly recommend APUS Tours for this trip.

      Trotz nasser 1. Nacht und 2. Tag war der 3 tägige Lares Trek ein Eindrückliches Erlebnis. Der Reiseführer war flexibel, hatte grosse Kenntnisse. Der Koch war eine Klasse für sich. Das ganze Team, mit den Pferdeführern, war sehr aufmerksam, hilfsbereit und freundlich. Schade, dass wir nie Sicht auf die hohen Berge hatten. Unglaublich für uns, wie in dieser Gegend noch mit einfachsten Mitteln, auch von jungen Leuten, gearbeitet wird.
