- The hike to Machu Picchu is the biggest calling card in South America and there are multiple options to see the ancient city.
You can hike the classic Inca trail, catch a fancy train to the entrance, or if you're up for a challenge. You can hike the awe-inspiring and absolutely stunning 5 night Salkantay trek along the Salkantay Trail. Which we think is obviously the best hike to Machu Picchu
For this adventure, we chose to hike with Alpaca Expeditions. Naturally, we filmed every single day so you can see EXACTLY how the Salkantay Trail to Machu Picchu with Alpaca expeditions unfolds. Enjoy watching what it's like to Hike to Machu Picchu

What an amazing adventure you two had. I definitely was nervous & anxious too for you both, only because we had no contact during your trek but I’m so proud of you both for having done this trek. The views look pretty spectacular & having a good people with would’ve helped ease the aches & pains. How amazing are the porters, the tour guide & all the staff who helped make your experience one you’ll always remember. Very proud of you both. Miss you, love you, mum.xx 💕💕
Still cannot believe that we did it! Love you miss you ❤️
Such great memories! I can’t wait for part 2 and our reunion trek. Where are we going?
Woo! Such good memories 😊 a reunion is definitely on the cards somewhere 😄
This was so well done, I’m so happy to have met you all and to have the memory of this trip forever in a video!! Second on the reunion!
Woooooo! 😊 thanks so much!
Ahh such great memories !! Hardest day of my life 🤣 worth it though ! Can’t wait to watch the next part
Hardest day of mine is in the next one 🤣 BUT WE DID IT 🎉
Les gusta los animalitos y respetan mucho la naturaleza. Gracias por visitar mi pais y ser tan respetuosos y amables!!!! Vuelvan , los esperamos , siempre serán bienvenidos!!!
Thanks so much 😊 we had an amazing time! 🇵🇪
The trail and the surroundings are simply breathtaking here. Great video guys! Professional filming 👏👏
Thank you! 😊 glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks Emily and Jordan for sharing this amazing video!! Incredible Salkantay, incredible remembrances. 🎉❤😊
It was such a great trip (made all the better by the group we had! 😉) ❤️
20kms a day - are you two mad - hats off to you, they would have to half it for me to even think about it - still looks amazing
It was so hard 😄 but worth it!! 😊

I just got back from my 5 day Salkantay trek with Alpaca. What a journey! Love your video.
How good is it!!!?? Such a great 5 days in the mud 😄
We only had one rainy night while we sleeping at Llactapata (so it was too foggy to see Machu Pichu from tents 😔) and one rainy day on the way to coffee plantation! Soooo lucky!
This is on my bucket list but I’m so scared I wouldn't be able to make it….
The views as simply stunning and the videos are amazing.
I’m really look forward to your videos each week. Keep safe and keep on having fun. Love your work x
You can do it! There are different companies that do the same trek at a different pace with more luxury hotels!
And Even if you fall behind with alpaca they have a back up van and back up horses for help! 😊
Wow! Getting us excited for when we get to Peru 😆 can’t wait for part 2! Emily I’m (Jacqui) so curious about your knee issue because I’m having a sore knee when I hike at the moment too and I’m really worried about these multi-day hikes we want to do 😅 I hope it wasn’t too bad for you 🧡
😄 You're going to have the best time! It's such an interesting and vibrant country.
As for the knees, it's certainly manageable, but if it gets too much most company's have back up vans 😉 even back up horses if your high in the mountains!
Y'all, this is such a great video! What an awesome way to remember the trip!
Thanks Austin! Your Australian accent in Part 2 is one of the many highlights for us 🤣
"just dudes being dudes throwing rocks into the river" LOL
😄 hahah
I love your videos!!!!!❤❤❤
Thank you so much! 😊
Totally amazing; well done Emily and Jordan.
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for sharing your adventures. This is so enjoyable watching and wishing I had done this when I was younger (I also have poor knees!). I love the hobbit house hope to see more in the next video. Looking forward to Machu Picchu xx
Thanks for watching! 😊 the sore knees were definitely a problem! But machu picchu was worth it 😀
Woohoo! Nice one guys. Great effort! I hope you feel encouraged to do more hiking after this 😊
We do! Hiking is great!!
What an amazong adventure you guys had. What month did you do the Salkantay trail?
It was so great! We did it in September!
Enjoy watching, great video!
Thanks so much! 😊
I never realised how much I wanted to go to Peru until your videos. It's flown up my to-travel list. I also suffer from sore knees on longer walks. Surprisingly it always seems to be the declines that are worse for them. I think it's my total lack of core strength lol
😄 you should definitely go! It's a tough hike but the group (herd) mentality really keeps you going haha
I wanna do this so bad!🤩
This is so helpful! We are planning now.
But can you please post the next video?! We are so curious about what made Emily almost have an anxiety attack!!
😄 thanks for watching! You'll have to wait for the weekend 😉
Una pregunta: Cuánto cuesta contratar realizar ése trekking?
Saludos 😊
I think I've put the link in the description! From memory I think all 5 nights was $650!
Can you rent a horse to ride???????????Wait is there a part 2???????????? missed the most important part Machu Picchu
😄 you can actually! Yes part two is still being finished! It will be out next week 😀
asombrosos lugares, que hermoso es mi Peru. Les recomiendo visitar Tingo Maria.
SO BEAUTIFUL! potentially the most beautiful country in all of South America 😉
Nice video Guys! I will do this trek somewhere next year, so i’m very exited to see how Nice this looks! One question, can you book this trek like 1 or 2 weeks in advance?
Oohhh your going to have so much fun! Not really unfortunately, the tickets to get unto machu picchu can sell out super early! The earlier you can book the better but you never know!
I really want do it too!!
Yesss! you should!
The leaves help with altitude sickness. Just don't go for a drug test at work!!! Yikes
So strange but so good 😄
Hi Emily and Jordan, I’m doing this on July, thank you for the wonderful and very informative video!! I’m wondering what type of hiking boots you are wearing? I’m considering trail running shows instead of hiking boots, I don’t know if that’s a good idea.
How exciting! We were pretty clunky shoes but they were definitely needed in the snow and mud! That being said, I think if you're doing it in hotter months you might get away with comfortablr runners!
Hi @jordanandemily - was this the 5days/5 nights Salkantay Trek you did? Would you absolutely recommend this trek or the shorter 4D/4N trek? Thanks 🤩
This was the 5 dayer we think! It's definitely up to you, 5 day obviously has more but it's definitely more challenging 😄
How many days did you stay in Cusco to acclimatise?
We we're in Cusco for 4 days before, but had been in the country going up and down in elevation for a few months!
What time of year did you go?
we were in Peru in September!
