Know before you book

  • The hotel pick-up times can be from 04:00 to 08:00 in the morning. The exact time will be confirmed a day before and will depend on the train departure time.
  • IMPORTANT: Do not schedule activities or return flights on the same day of your tour to Machu Picchu as this tour ends between 8 and 10 at night approximately.
  • Tickets to Machu Picchu are subject to availability. We remind you that you must send immediately your data (name and surname as it appears on your passport, document number, date of birth and nationality) to issue the tickets.
  • Please note that once your registration to Machu Picchu has been issued, no changes to your personal data or registration date are allowed.
  • To preserve the Historical Sanctuary of Machu Picchu, as well as its condition as World Heritage, the Ministry of Culture has established different circuits to visit it. However, please keep in mind, that either Circuit 2 or 3 will be assigned upon availability.
  • We will make sure that your visit to the archaeological site is a memorable experience. However, please keep in mind, that either Circuit 2 or 3 will be assigned upon availability.

What you can expect

Start with pickup from your hotel in Cusco and travel to Ollantaytambo Station to board the train to Aguas Calientes.

The train has ample seats with large windows allowing for grand views of the surrounding jungle and mountains. Board a coach for a 25-minute ride to Machu Picchu.

The city of Machu Pichu is believed to have been built in the 1450s by the Inca emperor Pachacuti as a holiday retreat. Within a century the city would be abandoned following the Spanish conquest. Instead, it was slowly swallowed up by the jungle and hidden from harm.

Take a guided tour of the site which explains the origins behind this awe-inspiring citadel and its most prominent landmarks such as the monumental Main Square, the Royal Quarters.

After the tour, be returned to Aguas Calientes where you can take some free time to explore the city. Then, return to Aguas Calientes station to take the train back to the Ollantaytambo Station, from there you will be taken back to your hotel.
