Is it for me?

This package has been very popular and often people use it as a jumping-off point for discovering the rest of Peru. It has been created for people with a minimum of time but most people add a pre-tour accommodation for the day before the tour to allow them time to recover from their journey to Peru. One extra night pre-accommodation is $45.00 per person and of course, the transfer from the airport is organized for this day so please consider this as a recommendation!

Escorted by your experienced tour guide you will have the opportunity to re-discover this fascinating and unique place as Hiram Bingham did in 1911, Machupicchu, the lost city of the Incas, where the last emperors, priests and priestesses took refuge and where the empire survived for 40 years after the arrival of the Spaniards. Sacred, secret and mysterious citadel from the time of Pachacutec Inca Yupanqui (IX-Inca`s Dinasty) emperor, his presumed constructor. Then apparently its existence was even well-known only by the authorities and the priests of the Tawantinsuyo “The four lands of the empire”. Machupicchu prodigy of architecture of aesthetic recklessness and by the majestic and harmony of its forms, by the impeccable organization of its terraces, stairs, buildings, patios, passages that are set up in this nest of condors, surrounded by mountains, between the mountain range and the forest like but the extraordinary constructive feat of the pre-Hispanic man. (Pack Lunch is provided by Viajeros Hostal).
Other recommended activities: Climb Huayna Picchu mountain (2,700 m, 90min, steep gradient); if all Huayna Picchu permits have run out then we can include the higher climb with the Machu Picchu Montana permit.

Walk to "Intipunku" the Sun Gate where the classic Inca Trail ends (1.5 hr ) or Walk to the Inca bridge located south of Machupicchu (1 hr) All these walks are without a guide, are clearly signed and easy to find. (Pack Lunch is provided by Viajeros Hostal). You can stay at Machupicchu until 15:30 / 15:45 pm and take the bus to Aguas Calientes.
