Highlights
  • Cusco - ITINERARY: Machu Picchu tour

Transfer from Cusco to the station of Ollantaytambo, a short distance from Cuzco for the train to Aguas Calientes. Full day’s guided tour of Machu Picchu, the most spectacular ancient city in the world. Built by the Inca Pachacutec, and comprising stone blocks fitted with masterful precision, Machu Picchu harmoniously blends into the mountain landscape.

There are many theories as to the origins behind Machu Picchu but three of the most popular ideas include a temple to the sun, a fortress against the jungle inhabitants or a sanctuary for the Incas. This fabulous city has houses, temples, warehouses, a large central square, all connected by narrow roads and steps, and is surrounded by terraces cut into the mountain side which were used for agriculture.

After the tour, free time to enjoy this magical and spiritual wonder. Opportunity for a trek (approx 1 hour) up to the sungate (Intipunku), which is a part of the Inca Trail, for a magical view of the sanctuary. Return to Cuzco in the evening aboard the train. Reception and transfer to hotel.

  • Santuario Historico de Machu Picchu - Machu Picchu is one of the 7 wonders of the modern world; many travelers want to visit and enjoy this Inca architecture.

Fantastic experience - Carlos was our tour guide. He met us in Cusco, had all tickets (buses, trains, Machu Picchu entrance) and gave a good overview of the history. He did a good job of capturing group photos along the way too.

Operator is Unprofessional - I already got confirmation and was even charged $430 using the reserve now, pay later option. Then, I messaged the operator the day before the trip to ask when I will be picked up only for them to tell me in the afternoon that they were unable to get my ticket. They cancelled last minute instead of letting me know in advance. I could have made different plans or arranged the trip with another company. I went to Cusco mainly to see Machu Picchu but they ruined everything for me. If you want a guaranteed trip, dont book here. Tip: If you are unable to get customers a ticket, let them know in advance.
