Luxury Machu Picchu

Catch a flight departing for Cusco, enjoying scenic views flying over the Andes mountain range. Once you have arrived, you’ll head to the Sacred Valley of the Incas – a breathtakingly beautiful valley considered one of the most beautiful valleys in the world. Here you’ll find a traditional, Peruvian way of life, with women dressed in their colourful garments, llamas in most places and stunning mountain views as far as the eye can see. Whilst you’re in the Sacred Valley, you’ll visit the Incan ruins at Ollantaytambo as well as the remains of Pisac, where you can find the remnants of Inca terraces, a royal palace, and a colourful market.

Today is the day you’ll make your way to the famous Machu Picchu. You’ll depart to catch the train at Ollanta station which takes you along the Urubamba River, through gorges and vast fields high in the mountains. For the next couple of days, you’ll explore these fascinating ruins, walking amongst the stone houses, ancient temples, and more, hidden on the top of this towering mountain top. Make sure to rise early to see the sunrise at Machu Picchu for a truly magical and memorable experience. If you’re an active and adventurous person, enjoy a morning hike to the top of Huayna Picchu for the most incredible views.

In the morning, enjoy one last exploration of Machu Picchu before you leave on the bus to take the train back down to Cusco, riding once more through the valley with all of its beautiful sights and scenery. Whilst in Cusco you can enjoy a tour of the former capital of the Incan Empire, taking in all of the Spanish colonial architecture including the impressive churches and palaces built on Inca foundations, such as the Santo Domingo Church which is built on the walls of the Coricancha (Temple of the Sun).

Today marks the end of your luxury trip in Peru. You’ll be transferred from the hotel to the airport, ready to catch your departing flight home.
