Inca Trail Explore Adventures makes its best effort to secure permits for our customers, however, permits are sold by the Government on a first come, first serve basis. The reason the permits are limited is for the protection of this incredible site. In 2000 there was a joint effort of the Peruvian government and the board of UNESCO world heritage sites to put together a comprehensive plan for protection and preservation of the Inca Trail and Machu Picchu. The reason that initiative was started was because there was concern about erosion of the Trail due to overuse.
