Wake up and have breakfast at your respective hotel (one night before the guide will give you detailed information about the service they will perform) we will go to the bus station, trying to take one of the first buses towards the Machupicchu Citadel taking a tour of 30 min. Approx.

Around 7:00 a.m. We will begin our tour by visiting the most attractive places in the place, where one of the most recognized examples of engineering, architecture, assembly, and carving is in the different streets, squares, ceremonial fountains, and temples, surrounded by abundant vegetation.

From this point you can see the mountains as they are: HUAYNA PICCHU, the mountain MACHU PICCHU, the mountain PUTUKUSI, and the INTI PUNKU to all these mountains can be visited on foot.

After our visit, you can take the opportunity to climb the mountain of Huaynapicchu or Machupicchu mountain (it is important to have the ticket purchased in advance you will have to book in advance since the income is very limited and they run out several months before (these MOUNTAINS have an additional cost of US $ 20.00 to the cost of the package),) or you could choose to go down to the town of Aguas Calientes for lunch and rest, considering that you must be 30 minutes before the departure of your train.

The train schedule we consider is 18:20 hours (At the time of your confirmation you will be given the exact time of your return), in case you want a special service like Vistadome please just send us the request and we will reserve it in advance by sending the options.

 Already doing the walk we will see how the color of the landscape and the mountains changes with a very changing temperature during our journey, reaching a maximum height of 5,033 meters above sea level. which is the Mountain of the 7 Colors, having enough time to capture images and enjoy this wonder of nature, delighting in the magic that surrounds the mountains that surround it as well as a veil of clouds and snowy peaks, then we will begin our return from the same path being a much quieter and leisurely walk, and where a very pleasant lunch prepared by our Andean Chef will be waiting for us we will share this beautiful experience with the rest of the group.

After some free time, we will take the transport that will take us back to Cusco arriving and where the transport will leave them to the City Center between 17:30 to 18:00 in the afternoon.

Note: During the ascent, you will have the opportunity to rent a horse that will serve as a backup in case of an emergency since the change in altitude is very acute (The rental is negotiated directly with the villager that could cost between S /. 80.00 to S /.90.00 Peruvian currency).
