Description
After breakfast at the hotel, accompanied by your Inca Trail guide, take the 25-minute shuttle bus to the Machu Picchu Inca city and enjoy a two-hour guided tour of the most important sites, such as the Temple of the Sun, the Royal Residence, the Water Mirrors, and others. Your guide will explain all the details of this Inca Empire iconic city. Finally, at the agreed time, take the bus to the Aguas Calientes town and have lunch on your own. In the afternoon, head to the station and board your return train (15:20/18:20hrs) to Ollantaytambo. Upon arrival, our staff will be waiting to take you to your hotel in Cusco.
