Thinking of exploring Peru’s famed lost city of Machu Picchu this summer? Plan ahead – permits are going fast!

Hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu - Boundless Journeys
Hiking the Inca Trail

It happens every year, but 2012 seems even earlier than usual. Only 500 permits per day are issued for people to hike on the Inca trail into Machu Picchu, and already permits are sold out for almost the entire month of July. As of this writing in March, there is still good availability for August, but that is likely to change dramatically in the next few weeks. Machu Picchu is undoubtedly the highlight of most travelers’ Peru tours, and hiking in on the Inca Trail, whether on our 5-day trek, or the so-called “Inca Trail Express” a one-day hike that culminates at the Gate of the Sun, is an unforgettable experience that will stay with you for years. If you’ve been thinking of joining us in Peru this summer, please don’t delay and risk disappointment – let us know now if you are considering a trip so we can keep you in the loop!
