We leave Cusco early for Chinchero, the land of the rainbow, where you can visit a living museum of Inca textile art. Next is Moray, with its concentric agricultural terraces used to experiment with crops, and the Maras salt pans, worked since ancient times. We go down to Urubamba for a buffet lunch and visit the Ollantaytambo archaeological park in the afternoon. You then board the train to Aguas Calientes, the town below Machu Picchu, where our team meets you and takes you to your hotel. Your guide will contact you to arrange the next day’s visit.

After an early breakfast you check out, leave your luggage at the hotel and meet your guide in the main square of Aguas Calientes. A shuttle bus takes the group up to the entrance of Machu Picchu for a guided visit of about two and a half hours: temples, plazas, agricultural terraces and astronomical observatories, with the landscape that surrounds the citadel. You take the bus back down, collect your luggage and board the train to Ollantaytambo, where our team transfers you back to Cusco.
