Private vs Group Treks
Inkaland Treks is a trusted local operator based in Huaraz, working directly with independent travelers and international travel agencies.
We operate all of our trekking, climbing, and day-hike programs ourselves — ensuring total control over safety, logistics, equipment, food quality, and staff professionalism.
We offer two service styles:
PRIVATE TREKS and GROUP TREKS.
Both are led by our experienced team and maintain the same Inkaland Treks standard of quality.

Private Treks
Tailor-Made • Flexible • Operated Exclusively for You
Our Private Service is ideal for travelers who want a personalized and exclusive experience.
This option allows you to create a journey designed entirely around your needs, pace, and interests.
✔ What a Private Trek Includes
- You choose your own dates
- Fully customized itinerary
- Adjustments to your preferred pace and style
- Ideal for families, couples, friends, and photography groups
- Private guide, private cook, private muleteers
- Menus adapted to your dietary requirements
- Maximum comfort with premium 4-season tents
- Flexible transport (flight, VIP bus, or private vehicle)
As a direct local operator, we design and operate the entire experience based on your preferences — creating a meaningful and unforgettable journey in the Andes.
✔ Availability
Private treks depend only on guide, staff, and equipment availability at the time of booking.
Group Treks
Join a Confirmed Departure • Social • Affordable • Premium Service
Group Treks are ideal for travelers who want to join a scheduled departure and enjoy the camaraderie of trekking with others.

Even in group departures, the quality remains 100% Inkaland, because we operate everything ourselves — no outsourcing.
