What Makes Us Different!… Here’s, Why You Should Book With Us!
Making a choice of your right travel company/ tour operator is the most important decision you will make as you make your plans for a long-anticipated dreamed adventure. At first glance, some companies may seem cheaper. However, when you research a little deeper, you will see why traveling with Peru Summit Adventures assures that you will have the most memorable travel experience possible. In fact, we guarantee it, our TripAdvisor reviews say that.
Making genuine and sustainable itineraries often translate to real costs, with a host of responsible travel practices that underpin our prices, here are the reasons why you should go with us!
1. We Focus on Details
2. Our Safety Record is Flawless
3. Knowledge and Expertise
4. The Smallest Groups en Route “Lares Trek 4 Days” – Averaging Just 4 Travelers
Besides, Machu Picchu offers one of the world’s most spellbinding travel experiences. But it’s also a world-renowned destination, and touring the site in a big group with multitudes of tourists shoving for photos, and competing to hear the guide, your once in a lifetime visit to this World Heritage Site may lose its magic. Our Machu Picchu Trips are scheduled with an average of just four travelers, allowing for a deeper exploration of the lost city of the Incas, with our Local Experts / Tour Leaders.
5. We Deliver on Our Promises
We are very confident the quality of our Lares Trek 4 Days will get your expectations and that you will savor the best possible of cultural travel experience, nature travel experience, and adventure travel experience if you are dissatisfied, we’ll happily give you credit for an extra trip or for a future journey. It’s, to our knowledge, the best guarantee in the travel business.
6. The Best Fare For The Best Trip
7. You Book, You Go…Don’t Worry… We Won’t Cancel
8. We are Local Entrepreneurs, A Family Enterprise (we are not a gringo company)
Probably you will see that most of the tour operators mention it on their websites that are local tour companies, however, if you research a little deeper you will find out that’s not true, they might be although half of the operation is done from here and another half abroad, they even have NorthAmerican phone number or European phone numbers, which is a clue to find out, we are not against the foreigner companies or half foreign companies, what we are against is that they lie.
In Cusco exist just few truly local tour operators. If you did not know, foreign companies come to Peru to get rich without paying a General Sales Tax or Tax Contribution to our country. If you did not know that, according to the United Nations, for every US $100 spent on a tour in a developing country or foreign travel companies, only $5 stays in the local economy. Normally, almost all of the money flows back to large companies operating outside the destination countries. As we are a local family enterprise, we guarantee that your travel expenditures will support the local economy, and improve the lives of Peruvians through contributing to general sales tax.
9. Responsible Travel
Be a responsible traveller! Let’s make this world a better place for everyone and for everyone that lives in it! The natural environments that we travel to are fragile and abundant with beautiful culture and traditions that are often reliant on tourism. We have a responsibility as travelers to minimize the impact of our presence, protect what is delicate, and leave a positive influence everywhere we can.
As a locally owned and based Peruvian tour company, we integrate these practices into our in-country operations we are aiming for a style of travel that makes the world a better place for everyone, and for everyone that lives in it. Since our very first days as a tour operator, responsible business has been at the heart of what we do. Peru Summit Adventures is committed not just to treading lightly, but to making a real difference by helping and investing in local communities, education initiatives, environmental conservation projects. These values are not more than just words, they are ingrained in the culture and philosophy of our crew, daily operations of Peru Summit Adventures trips, and at our office too.
10. Top Notch Gear
With Peru Summit Adventures, you will receive our exclusive high-end equipment for camping, which will guarantee a comfortable stay every night. We use proper gear for this type of terrain, our gear is thought to resist harsh weather at extreme elevations. Our gear is the best on the trail.

Weather in Lares Trek 4 Days to Machu Picchu
Altitude Acclimation for Lares Trek to Machu Picchu
Although you’ll be excited to try the trails once you arrive in Cusco City, plan a few days to get acclimated and rest from travel before your 4 Day Lares Trek to Machu Picchu begins. There’s plenty to do roaming the city while you get acclimated or you can even take one of our acclimatization programs.
If you start having problems with the altitude, the best recourse is to immediately go down in elevation or ask for oxygen therapy at your hotel. Regardless of where you decide to stay, keep hydrated and skip alcohol. Altitude sickness (hypoxia) medication can be purchased over the counter, and locals recommend drinking muña tea (Andean mint) and coca tea (mate de coca) to relieve symptoms.
Getting in Shape
Train on basic aerobic fitness when preparing for your hike and keep in mind that because of the high altitudes, you should not plan on walking as far in one day as you normally would; Before the trek, at home, go walking, running, and hill/stair work will all work, with these activities, you’ll build cardiovascular endurance and aerobic capacity.
Although most travelers are mentally prepared for the uphill climbs, the 4 Day Lares Trek to Machu Picchu has steep uphill and downhill sections, and very long hiking days. Here, you’ll take your time to fulfill every hiking day. Machu Picchu is situated at a much lower elevation than the Lares Trail, which means, you’ll be already acclimated for your arrival to this iconic site.
