What kind of meals will we have on the trek?

Our meals are always a highlight of our treks. All food is prepared from organic vegetable and fresh ingredients purchased in the Cusco local market and transported by the porters, then prepared by the chef.

Also we're proud to say that the only complaints we get about our food is that there is too much of it.
Many people comment that the food they eat on the treks is the best they get whilst in Peru.




A sample menu is as follows:

Breakfast;Scrambled eggs,pancakes,omelettes, porridge, toast, butter, jam, pancakes,fruit salad, yogurt with hot chocolate,orangejuice, milk,coffee and a bountiful supply of bread alongside a wide assortment of teas and other drinks,notably Milo, a chocolate-flavoured energy drink

Snack; Every day you are provided with a snack to eat whilst trekking,this is usually something like a power bar,fruit or biscuits

Lunch: slices of avocado sprinkled with parmesan cheese and sweet. Then garlic bread, asparagus soup, rice, fried trout, steamed cauliflower, carrots, and beans and more

Happy Hour; Every afternoon around 5pm we serve hot chocolate, tea, popcorn, biscuits, bread and jam, etc.



Then, at 7:00 p.m. there is dinner that consisted of: cream of corn soup, noodles with vegetables, chicken legs that we call “Condor Legs”, fried potatoes stuffed with cheese, cauliflower cakes (flat paddies) and more.



Please notice that we don't use any canned or rehydrated food for our trek just fresh ingredients.

Can I have vegetarian meals?

Our cooks can gladly provide vegetarian meals. Please let us know your dietary requirements when you book your trek.

Can I have vegan meals?

All of our cooks are trained to be able to prepare vegetarian or vegan meals. Please let us know if you are a strict vegan and send us a list of the foods that you can eat.

I have a food allergy or special dietary requirements. Can this be accomodated?

We have plenty of clients who have allergies to nuts, wheat, etc. Please give us details of your allergy at the time of booking so we can plan accordingly. Please let us know the severity of your food reaction and what type of medicine you will bring incase of an emergency. If your allergy is severe, you must be accompanied by a friend on the trek who is knowledgeable about your allergy and how to administer any medications.

Very Important:
Due to the nature of the remote geographical location of the treks and the lack of suitable nearby medical facilities, INTI SUN TREK will not accept any responsibility, either directly or indirectly, for any problems due to your special medical or dietary requirements. We suggest that you check with your doctor before booking the trek.

What about water along the trail?


We will provide you with boiled and filtered cold water during the trek after lunch on the first day. You will need to bring a container to carry your water in. Also, you need to ensure that you pack a sufficient amount of water for the first half-day of the trek
