If you're in Cusco, don't miss out on this 2-day trip to Machu Picchu and the Sacred Inca Valley! See one of the most important archeological sites in Peru.

What to Expect

Day 1: Cusco - Sacred Valley of the Incas - Aguas Calientes

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Cusco and set off on an exciting adventure into the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Plus, we'll also visit Pisac, one of Peru's most beautiful Incan archeological sites.

As we arrive in the colonial town of Pisac, we'll enjoy a walking tour through the cobble-stoned streets, leading us to a breathtaking view from the mountaintop. Here, we'll leave you some free time to browse the handicraft market and find a perfect souvenir.

Following our visit, we'll head to Urubamba for lunch. With our appetites satiated, we'll visit the archeological complex of Ollantaytambo, where we'll see an ancient Incan stone technique used hundreds of years ago. Don't forget to glimpse the towering hill fortress nearby, too!

Then, we'll catch a train from Ollantaytambo to Aguas Calientes, heading straight to our hotel upon arrival. Be sure to get a good night's rest as tomorrow will be jam-packed with adventure!

Day 2: Aguas Calientes - Machu Picchu - Cusco

Start the day off right with a delicious breakfast with us, and from there, we'll head to the site we've all been waiting for: Machu Picchu!

Slowly but surely, we'll climb the intricate trail that rewards us with a spectacular view of the Urubamba River, which also shapes the famous canyon below. As we come to the trail's end, we'll be greeted by the Lost City of the Incas and its incredible terraces, staircases, and ceremonial quarters. With this view alone, it's easy to see why Machu Picchu is considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1983.

We'll enjoy a guided visit to the archeological complex and then cap off the day with a typical lunch at one of the local restaurants nearby. Then, it's time to board our train again and bring you back to your hotel in Cusco where we'll arrive in the early evening, between 6 and 7 pm.

Tour Accommodation

The tour includes a 1-night stay with breakfast at one of the following hotels, depending on your tour option selected:

Standard Category: Hotel Rock Rivers or similar
Superior Category: Hatún Inti Clasic or similar

Hotel Pickup

Pickup will be between 8 am and 8:30 am from the hotels in the historic center of Cusco. If your accommodation is not in the center, we'll meet you at the door of the Cathedral, in the Plaza de Armas.

Train Types

The excursion to Machu Picchu takes place on panoramic trains with huge windows and glass roofs—traveling on these trains is like flying! We offer the option to travel economy class (Expedition or Voyager train) and first class (Vistadome or The 360º train).

Cusco Tourist Card

When booking your ticket for the Cusco Tourist Card, you'll have access to a number of attractions within and outside the city. A must-do when visiting the ancient Incan capital! It's most recommended if you're only in town for a few days and really want to see the Sacred Valley archeological sites.

Important Info

If the tour cannot be rescheduled, please note that you'll be refunded the full amount of the activity, except for the entrance fee to Machu Picchu (200PEN), which is non-refundable.

Occasionally, due to high demand, tickets to Machu Picchu may be sold out. If this occurs, we'll provide you with an alternative route. Please refer to the following links for maps of the regular route and the alternative route we offer in case of unavailability:
