Itinerary

Embark on a short but unforgettable 2-day trip to Machu Picchu. Discover the rich history and stunning landscapes on this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

At night/early in the morning, we will take a bus to the Ollantaytambo or Poroy train station (Cusco), where we will take our Expedition train to Aguas Calientes; the closest city to Machu Picchu. Arriving in Aguas Calientes, your guide will pick you up from the train station to take you to the hotel where you will have a briefing about the tour to Machu Picchu. The rest of the day will be free to explore Aguas Calientes and visit the thermal baths. Overnight in Aguas Calientes.

We will have 2 options to go up to Machu Picchu early in the morning: Take a 20-minute bus trip or walk to the sanctuary for approximately one hour. The road is steep. Whatever the case, we can enjoy a 2.5-hour guided tour of Machu Picchu, after which you will have free time and explore the place on our hanchas (optional: entrance to Huayna Picchu, US$ 12.50, upon reservation !). You can also return to Aguas Calientes for shopping, a nice lunch, or a dip in the hot springs. In the afternoon we will go down to Aguas Calientes to take the train that leaves Aguas Calientes at 6:45 p.m. and will take us back to Ollantaytambo, where we will take the bus back to Cusco. Arrival in Cusco at approximately 10:30 p.m.
