Machu Picchu Tour

As you will be walking into the citadel, the clouds would be clearing by as the golden rays of the sun would shimmer on the walls of the citadel. 

Our local expert will be giving you a detailed tour of the citadel for two hours. During the trip, you will be visiting some of the important parts of the citadel like the ceremonial centre, temple of the sun, main plaza, house of the priests and more. 

After the half day trip to the citadel, you will have some free time to explore the citadel on your own. If you have booked to hike Huayna Picchu or Machu Picchu mountain, our tour guide will be directing you to the respective trail head. 

Alternatively, you can hike to the Sun gate or Intipunku. It offers a beautiful view of Machu Picchu and is the entrance for those on the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. 

After you finish your visit to Machu Picchu, you will be taking a bus back down to Aguas Calientes town. Here we will be stopping for lunch at a local restaurant. 

Later in the evening, we will be taking the train back to Poroy. Our representative will be meeting you and will transfer you back to the hotel in Cusco.
