Day 1 | DAILY DEPARTURESYour adventure begins very early when we pick you up at 04:00 am from your hotel and then take you to Ollantaytambo on our private bus. Here you will take the train at 06:40 am. Our Green Peru Adventures tour guide will pick you up at the local train station and take you to the bus terminal from where your way to the majestic citadel continues. Your bilingual tour guide will take you around the vast ruins for about 2.5 hours, comprehensively explaining the historical significance of Machu Picchu and its importance in the Inca Empire. Machu Picchu is the best known of all the Inca Archaeological sites, as it is recognized worldwide as one of the new seven wonders, even though it’s not mentioned in any handwritten Chronicle of the Spanish Conquerors. Experts believe that Machu Picchu was constructed around the mid-15th century by Inca Pachacuteq and was rediscovered in 1911 by American historian Hiram Bingham. The guided tour of this fascinating site will be an unforgettable experience, visiting the Main Square, the Royal Quarters, The Temple of the Three Windows, the Circular Sun Tower, the Sacred Sun Dial (Intihuatana), and the Burial Grounds. A frequent bus service takes visitors back to Aguas Calientes (included) at any time. If you prefer, take a walk down through the jungle – it will take you roughly 45 minutes. You will arrive at Aguas Calientes for a late lunch or to enjoy a dip in the hot springs (not included). In the late afternoon at 4.12 pm, you take the train back to Ollantaytambo and then a tourist transport to Cusco. If you want to return to Cusco in the early afternoon, please let us know so we can book an early train at 02:30 pm (according to the service, it might have extra cost). |
