Machu Picchu Eco Tours Details

Machu Picchu Eco Tours is one of our signature tours. This two day programme with our local English speaking guide will offer you a detailed insight to the Peruvian culture and Inca civilization.

The magnificent ‘Lost city of the Incas’, the incredible Machu Picchu, is an old inca ruin built during the peak of the Inca Empire, and the most important highlight of its legacy.

Built around the 15th century, according to archeologists the citadel could have been constructed under the rule of Inca Pachacuti. The site maintains the same inca style, with polished dry-stone walls at its architectural construction. The three primary structures are the Intihuatana, the Temple of the Sun, and the Room of the Three Windows.

In 1983, UNESCO declared the Incan citadel, a Cultural and Natural World Heritage site of Humanity. Not for something is one of the 7 Wonders of the Modern World and the most visited destination in South America.

The Mandor Valley is one of the many natural beauties of the Sacred Valley. Located at the foothill of Huayna Picchu Mountain, this place will give you the most beautiful landscape and the opportunity to connect with nature as well.

A diverse flora and fauna enhance this lovely place, you will have the opportunity to find a variety of birds, including Rupicola, spotted parrots and green jays, a great variety of orchids among other plants.

Machu Picchu Eco Tour:

This 2 Day trip will take us through the most incredible places such as Aguas Calientes Town, Machu Picchu Sanctuary, Wayna Picchu, Puerta del Sol, Mandor Valley Bird and orchid observation.

You will enjoy walking along the sacred valley river, delight with the contrast of the beaten path in front of the mountain forest and the dwarf forest, as well as the interesting variation of trees, orchids and birds. You also will walk along the Vilcanota river and the railway tracks which follow to the Mandor Valley. And of course, we can not forget a complete visit to the Historic Sanctuary of Machu Picchu that will make this trip unforgettable.

We highly recommend this trip to the nature lovers and birdwatchers. The visit to the natural reserve of Mandor Valley will beat off the renowned Inca Trail. This tour is rarely offered by tour operators and Machu Picchu Kingdom of the Incas Empire will offer you the best service and professional tour guides for you to fully enjoy this amazing journey.

You can also check our National Park tours in Puerto Maldonado. Visit the Amazon rainforest and the Macaw clay lick at the Manu National Reserve.
