What To Expect

Receive an early morning pickup from your Cusco hotel and transfer to the train station in Ollantaytambo. You’ll travel by rail through the winding river valleys to reach Aguas Calientes, the gateway town for Machu Picchu. You’ll make one more transfer to a bus for the zig-zagging ride up mountain switchbacks to reach the famous “lost city” of the Inca.

Once you’ve entered the park, spend the next two hours enjoying a guided tour of the site. You’ll get a closer look at Machu Picchu highlights including the sacred solar clock, the Royal Quarters, main plaza, and the Temple of the Three Windows, plus much more. You’ll have more time after the guided tour to explore this wondrous world heritage site on your own.

At the end of your Machu Picchu visit, head back down to Aguas Calientes to grab some food before taking the train back to Ollantaytambo. You’ll be dropped off at your hotel in Cusco in the evening. A full itinerary with timing is listed below.

A well organized tour

Iris_H, Nov 2022

We booked the tour only 3 days before and they managed to arrange the transportation and entrance tickets successfully. Our guide Tatiana is professional and knowledgeable. She also helped us to take a sneak peek of Machu Picchu from the higher platform which was not included in the ticket. Overall, the tour was well arranged and the trip was memorable.

Perfect day trip to Machu Picchu

Durga_J, Oct 2022

Visiting from the US with a short time in Peru, and no Spanish skills. Freddy and the team ensured everything ran like clockwork and even came to our hotel the evening before to brief us. We had a wonderful tour in English. Highly recommend!

Great experience overall! Well...

Philip_S, Apr 2018

Great experience overall! Well organized, well paced and plenty of time to spend in Machu Picchu. Knowledgable guide as well! Also like the fact that they pick you up at 5:30am, as oppose to 3-4am like some of the other tours do...good for sleeping in a little and being able to enjoy the day feeling more well-rested!!
