TOP Rated Inca Trail Tour Companies 2025 – 2026

The Inca trail tour companies that operate in the Inca Trail Network must register and have the authorization of the National Service of Natural Protected Areas by the State (SERNANP) to operate officially. This year 2025 & 2026 there are exactly 226 travel companies operating the Inca trail.

Getting licensed by the government is a complicated and stringent process for the protection of tourists. The government evaluates your entire business operation and office site, if you paid taxes, they check the tour guides, porters, chefs, camping equipment, first aid equipment and preparedness and if we are we part of the union. Those companies that do not have a tour operator license for the Inca Trail, do not have one because they cannot meet the standards required by the government.  

There are also agencies that have been operating the Inca trail for more years. Older agencies are given a 7-10 year permit. The old agencies are usually the ones that have groups every day and guarantee your trip to the Inca trail. They are the most recommended.

#1 Inca Trail Trail OPERATOR!

SAM Travel Peru has been a Licensed Inca Trail Tour Operator since 2013. All companies managing the Inca Trail must be certified and have an Inca Trail operators license. This license is issued annually each December and SAM Travel Peru is licensed for the coming year of 2026.

Our licenses as an Official Travel Agency & Inca Trail Operator is under the name of SAM Travel Peru Expedition E.I.R.L. We are registered on the official Government web site: www.machupicchu.gob.pe.

5 VITAL POINTS TO UNDERSTAND BEFORE BOOKING WITH AN INCA TRAIL OPERATOR

1. The amount of registered tour operators that run, sell, and operate their own Inca Trail packages is limited! SAM Travel Peru is one of the primary companies that is able to do this.
2. There are two types of companies that will try to sell you an Inca trail package: registered tour  operators and middle men, otherwise known as endosars.  
3. If you book with a company that is a middle man, you will pay higher prices and there is no way to know the quality of the service being provided by the third party servicers that they use.
4. A licensed tour operator can guarantee 100% of their services because they are providing all of the services directly with their own guides, chefs, porters, and drivers etc.
5. If you book with a licensed tour operator, the advocate that you speak with are the ones you will be working with directly, so if you have any concerns you can go to them and get your needs meet quickly.
