Important: If you wish to employ the services of a porter, you need to arrange it the same day you make your reservation for the Inca Trail. It’s impossible to do this after you arrive to Cusco.

Rent a sleeping bag: If you cannot bring, find, or buy a sleeping bag for the Inca Trail, it’s no problem. You can rent a high quality, down sleeping bag for $25.00 for the 4 day trek.
