• A very important factor which alter our world is global warming, which has evolved into a high risky contributor due to the glaciers melting in Peruvian Andes, and it also affect the normal development of our weather.
• Nonetheless, something that is very marked in our country and in some cities here in the Andes is that we only have 2 main seasons during the year:
• Dry Season: We consider the dry season from the end of April until the end of September, in this period the first rains will start. For this reason, this is the best time to visit our region and our amazing Machu Picchu and also avoid any inconveniences.
• Rainy Season: This season starts on October until the end of April approximately, so during this time it is advised to all of our visitors to pack their belongings into waterproof bags, as in our region it can be sunny the first 2 hours and then have a heavy rain.
• We know that there are extreme climates worldwide, but this must not stop us from our longing and desire to explore the world, to discover marvelous cultures and interact with them. Be welcomed to Perú and Machu Picchu.
• This mountain is located inside Machu Picchu Archaeological Park, which is located at 300 meters more than Machu Picchu Inca Citadel; here it takes approximately just 45 minutes hiking up and other 45 minutes hiking down. This Mountain conserves some archaeological remains as the Moon Temple and other precincts that are interconnected with authentic trails, steps, tunnels and natural formatted caves which made the view more interesting. Without any doubt, this is one of the best attractions of Machu Picchu; the Huayna Picchu Mountain offers a 360 grades view and a stunning view of Machu Picchu Inca Citadel, Machu Picchu
• Mountain and the famous Sun Gate (Inti Punku). Currently our government through Ministry of Culture, maintain the visitors income controlled per day, only 400 tickets are offered per day and divided in 2 groups of 200 each. The first schedule starts from 7:00 to 08:00 am and the second from 10:00 to 11:00 am, for this reason its demand is growing day by day and if any of our visitors is interested in this hike, then it is necessary to make a booking at least with 3 months in advance in order to guarantee their visit to this extraordinary place.

Elvis and his team did an awesome job of arranging our trip to Machu Picchu and Cusco/Sacred valley.
We did the half Inca trail and it was an experience we will cherish for a lifetime. Such a beautiful trail and experience. Would highly recommend Kenko travels for travel arrangements. They took care of Cusco and Sacred Valley tours for us. Very informative guides and safe drivers.

Kenko were very accommodating and great at explaining everything. The walk itself wasn't too hard but the views were incredible and it was very interesting to hear about the Incas while visiting sites along the way.

Due to trouble in the countryside had to cancel my trip. Very sad about this. The company were very communicative before I had to cancel ver easy to deal with and when I had to cancel refunded me instantly.

Very good, very professional with my refund and very quick. I appreciate that. Will book with them again when the country is not in trouble.
