About this activity
Discover Machu Picchu in the hands of expert guides, enjoying premium service during this once-in-a-lifetime experience at an amazing ancient landmark sought by travelers from around the world. Completed in approximately 1450, at the height of the Incan empire, Macchu Picchu was abandoned less than 100 years later following the Spanish conquest of Peru. Today it is considered by many to be the new spiritual center of the world. After a short drive to the Cusco railway station, we'll take the Orient Express to Aguas Calientes. Surrounded entirely by glass, the large panoramic windows on Vistadome wagons offer incomparable scenic views and innumerous opportunities to capture spectacular snapshots. You'll feel like you're part of the awesome landscape of Peru. Perurail provides passengers with a top-rated, personalized service for an unforgettable life experience. From Poroy, the journey lasts three and a half hours. From Ollantaytambo, it takes two hours. Upon arrival at Aguas Calientes, we will board a minibus to the ruins of the sacred city, Machu Picchu. Learn from our expert guides as you walk the streets of these amazing and mystical ruins. Stroll through town squares and climb delicately carved stone stairways. You will have time to explore on your own to fully embrace this magnificent wonder of the world and let the once-in-a-lifetime experience set in. In the afternoon, we'll return to the train station for the trip back to Cusco.
