I´d rather suggest you go to the Sacred Valley as soon as you arrive to Cusco, for better aclimatization. Then do the Inca trail and after go to Cusco City. By then, you will be perfectly aclimatized and will enjoy yr whole trip.

I am sure Andean Life can pick you up from the KR. The 4 day trail starts at KM 84 of the Peru Rail rain track and you can catch the train in Ollantaytambo or if the tour company takes you by bus, they have to go right by the KR as it is located right by the road.

I am sure Claudia who manages the KR will happily do the necessary arrangements for this to happen.

Just contact her at www.urubamba.com or by mail to info@urubamba.com

Thanks, Xochitl!

The way our plans are shaping up right now, it might be Lima to Cusco (for one night, so we can settle up our Macchu Picchu trip balance) then Urubamba, then the Inca Trail.

I am happy to report that I received a quick response from Rodrigo from KR, which makes me really excited about visiting the Sacred Valley.

Hi All,

About the Inca Trail, I want to inform your there is a website with disponibilities and reservation online. I think it's the only one to give this.

Also, they have great prices.

Take a look at: www.camino-inca.com
