DAY 1 Cusco – Ollantaytambo – Km 104 / Wiñayhuayna – Sungate – Machu picchu

We pick you up from your hotel to the train station and train journey approximately 1:30 mimites to the train stop at Kilometer 104. There we will cross the foot bridge over the Urubamba River and register with park officials who will check our permits to begin our One day Inca trail trek. We arrive almost immediately at the ruins of Chachabamba (Alt. 7448ft / 2270m), where your guide will spend a bit of time explaining archaeological theories about site’s buildings, foundains and water channels. Then we start a three-hour ascent up the narrowing path, offering spectacular open views of the valley down below. You will have an overview of the ruins of Choquesuysuy, before reaching a pristine waterfall, which signals our approach to Wiñayhuayna (Alt. 8694ft / 2650m), the largest and most spectacular ruins in the area after Machu Picchu. From there, it is a leisurely hour’s trek through a forest of large trees and giant ferns, reaching a steep Inca granite staircase that leads up to the Inti Punku “Sun Gate,” where Machu Picchu comes into view (Alt. 7874ft / 2400m). We will be in the Machu Picchu area only for a short time, because we have to continue to the village of Aguas Calientes, to settle in to the hotel of your choice and spend the night. Hiking time: 06 hours (Lunch Box/D)

DAY 2 Aguas Calientes – Machu Picchu Private Guided Tour – Cusco

Around 6 a.m. we will board the bus with a professional guide to make the 25-minute ride to Machu Picchu. The guided tour of the ancient citadel will take place as early as possible, when the ruins are relatively peaceful, before the daily train arrives with other visitors from Cusco. You will have plenty of time to enjoy and explore the magical ruins. After that we will return to Aguas Calientes and take the train to Ollantaytambo, then transfer to a private bus back to Cusco. (B)
