The cheapest classic trek in the category at $750 per person, and the reason is in the list: the porter for your own things, the sleeping bag, the train back to Ollantaytambo and the transfer to your hotel are add-ons. It needs two travellers and has two reviews.

At $750 each for two, it undercuts our pick by $48 per person, but our pick includes the Vistadome back, a porter for 7 kg and the transfer to Cusco. Add those here and the gap closes or reverses. With only two reviews, there is little to go on beyond the listing.
