The location of Machu Picchu, in the middle of the canyon of the Urubamba, couldn’t have been chosen better. It’s clearly evident that Machu Picchu was a construction planned and designed precisely to fit in the landscape around it. It’s the result of a unique set of experiences, where the work of man and nature are integrated with great success. The irregular topography was transformed in terraces with agricultural and urban aims and merges with the surroundings, although it also shows, at least, two dozens of rocks which, as scale models, represent the surrounding topography.

Machu Picchu Full Day Itinerary:

Early in the morning we will take the train from the city of Cusco(3350m) at about 7:00am, that will take us halfway to a beautiful scenery in the village Aguas Calientes, where we will arrive at about 11:30am. This is where we will take our bus that will bring us to the archeological complex of Machu Picchu.

Visiting Machu Picchu with a professional guide represents a unique experience. The mystic solemnity that comes off its’ imposing walls and the mysteries that those stones involve, inspire a deep respect to the constructors of the monumental work, who knew how to conjugate the art of their creation with the capricious and wild nature.

After having enjoyed unforgettable moments at Machu Picchu, we must return to the village of Aguas Calientes to take the tourist train (leaving at around 5:00 or 8:00pm), which will bring us back to Cusco (arriving at 9:00pm or 12:00am).
