Excellent one day option to see Machu Picchu
This was an excellent option for seeing Machu Picchu in a single day. It’s definitely a long day, but if you go in expecting that, the experience feels very smooth and well organised.
We had Miguel as our guide, and he was outstanding. Extremely knowledgeable without overwhelming us with endless facts. He paced the tour beautifully — never rushed, with plenty of time for photos and to simply take everything in. At each stop he shared interesting insights, relevant history, and the occasional anecdote that really added to the experience.
He’s also fantastic at taking photos and videos. He had our group expertly positioned for pictures and captured some wonderful memories for us along the way.
You do need to expect crowds — Machu Picchu is busy — but the entire experience was handled very well from start to finish.
Definitely request Circuit 2 passes if you can.
Operator response
Thank you for your excellent review! We’re so pleased to hear that your Machu Picchu experience was well organised and enjoyable throughout. Miguel will be delighted to know that his knowledge, pacing, and photography helped make your visit so memorable.
We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again in the future!
