WHEN DO I NEED TO BOOK THE INCA TRAIL HIKE FOR 2025?

Because of the incredible demand for access to the Inca Trail, booking at least 6 months to a year before is imperative. We are constantly receiving requests for bookings right up until the day permits are released, which is normally the first week of October.

WHY BOOK BEFORE PERMITS ARE RELEASED?

Organized companies like Alpaca Expeditions make sure they have all updated information for their clients ready to be logged in the minutes permits are released. These permits are snatched up within days, sometimes just hours, of the release and once a date is sold out there is no option to hike that start date any longer. Any delay in this process could mean we are unable to secure your access permit to the Inca Trail.
