Each year we donate some money to the communities our Inca Trail porters come from.
Currently we donate in the region of USD 1,000 at the start of each school year.
We ask the community what is most needed and usually we are asked to provide materials (books, pencils, paper etc.) for the children and the local school.
Most of the porters are farmers and cannot afford to pay for all of the materials their kids require for school.
By trekking on the Inca Trail you are directly helping the families and communities of your porters.
Please contact us for more information.

Alan and Clare, UK. Lodge-to-lodge trek Ecuador. August, 2025 We had a great time. I saw the magnificent Condor which I hoped for as a keen birder (among 50 other never before seen birds).
