Hey Vivian, there are a lot of tour companies to choose from to do this hike. I went with Apus Peru. They aren’t the cheapest but they are one of the best. It is possible to book last minute but you might not have as many choices of which company you go with but you will find something. Yes, it’s true that you need to plan and book your Inca Trail trip well in advance. If you are a really keen hiker (and fit), you might want to look in to Apus Peru’s Choquequirao to Macchu Pichu trek.

Are there any tour companies you recommend going with for the Choquequirau Trek? Is this trek something you can sign up for last minute? Like arrive in Cusco and sign up for a tour to do a few days later? It’s my understanding that doing the Inca Trail requires planning and booking months ahead. Just wondering if this trek is different in that regard.

If you’re looking for something less crowded, this could be your hike 🙂 Let me know if you end up going.

I am super keen on hiking in Peru but not on the Inca Trail – I would much prefer to less somewhere more remote and with less people 🙂

Very true, the most rewarding things in life are the ones you have to work your ass off for (quite literally in this case!

It is a long trek, especially for those who are used to hiking. But if there is a will, there is a way. That was proved by the couple in their 60’s that we met along the way!
