Inca Trail
We will pick you up from your hotel around 4:00 am and transfer you to Ollantaytambo station, then take the train to KM 104. Here you will begin your hike following the original Inca trail through the beautiful Andean mountains. The first Inca ruins you will come across are those of Chachabamba, a small archaeological complex that is believed to have once been a guardhouse for Machu Picchu. From here, the trail ascends with a gradual slope for three hours to reach 2,650 meters. You will visit the site of Wiñay Wayna, which means "Eternal Youth" in the indigenous Quechua language. The name comes from the orchids that dot the landscape, making Wiñay Wayna perhaps the most beautiful place on the Trail. After touring the site and having lunch, you will continue to Inti Punku or the "Sun Gate", from where you can see Machu Picchu in all its majesty and grandeur, and then take the bus to Aguas Calientes and spend the night in a comfortable hotel.

On the last day, you will wake up early at the hotel and head to the bus station for the 20-minute ride to the entrance of Machu Picchu, where you will embark on a guided tour of the citadel. If you choose to eat breakfast at 5 am or pack a breakfast box, you can make it to the citadel in time to see the sun rise over the Inca ruins. You will then explore the citadel on a 3-hour guided tour. After exploring Machu Picchu, then we will have to take the bus back to the town of Aguas Calientes to have lunch and then take the train back to Ollantaytambo. From there, you will go in a private transport back to the city of Cusco, arriving there we will drop you off at your hotel.
