Itinerary

Start: Day 1 at 7:30 am at your hotel in Cusco.
End: Day 2 around midnight in dontown Cusco.

Day 1: Cusco – Písac – Ollantaytambo – Aguas Calientes. We will pick you up in the morning to begin our trip by vehicle towards north of Cusco. We will make a stop at a lookout point to catch our first glimpse of the Sacred Valley, as well as to receive a presentation from our tour guide. Then, we will reach Písac, where we will visit the archaeological site with terraces used by the Quechua for cultivation. We will reach an altitude of 3,400 meters (11,154 ft.) or even 3,500 meters (11,483 ft.) if we have the energy to explore the highest part. After this, we will go back to the town where we will be able to visit the handicraft market. Next, we will drive on towards Ollantaytambo while skirting the Urubamba River. Once we are there*, we will visit the terraces and the Temple of the Sun ruins, and we will also have an exceptional view of the surrounding valleys. At the end of the day, we will take you to the train station to take the train to Aguas Calientes, from where you will then go to the hostel where you will spend the night.

*If you selected the optional service for a train upgrade to the Vistadome category, you will only receive a short explanation about the archaeological site and then you will have to go to the train station to take the train to Aguas Calientes.

Day 2: Aguas Calientes – Machu Picchu – Cusco. We will get up very early in the morning to take the bus with our guide in the town center. The ride from Aguas Calientes to the entrance of the Machu Picchu citadel will take 25 minutes. Here, we will take a guided tour that lasts one hour, during which we will receive information about the place’s history, from its construction to the time it was rediscovered by Hiram Bingham. Then, we will say good-bye to the guide and the group to tour the citadel on our own, with enough time to get to explore the structures that we didn’t get to see with the guide, or to climb one of the mountains, Machu Picchu Mountain or Huayna Picchu, if you included one in your ticket. After this experience, we will go back to Aguas Calientes to be at the train station a half an hour before the scheduled departure on your ticket. You will arrive to Ollantaytambo, where transportation will be waiting for you to take you to downtown Cusco.


Time in the citadel

The time available for visiting Machu Picchu is four hours in total. This time must be administrated as follows: one hour of guided tour, and the rest for visiting the citadel freely or climbing one of the mountains: Machu Picchu Mountain or Huayna Picchu.

Frequently Asked Questions
  • How far in advance should I book the tour?

    We receive bookings with minimum 1 week in advance. However, the places are limited and are always subject to availability. Entry tickets for the Machu Picchu citadel and entry tickets to the optional mountains Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu have a high demand, running out of tickets, in some cases, with months in advance. Because of that, our recommendation is to make the booking as far in advance as possible.

  • What is the Tourist Ticket and where can I buy it?

    The Tourist Ticket is a ticket that gives you access to 14 places of tourist interest: 10 archaeological parks located in Cusco's surroundings (Saqsaywaman, Qenqo, Pukapukara, Tambomachay, Písac, Ollantaytambo, Chinchero, Moray, Tipón and Pikillaqta), and three museums and one monument located in Cusco. The ticket has a price of S/. 130 per person and you can buy it directly in the entry of every place of tourist interest indicated. To have more information about the Tourist Ticket, visit http://cosituc.gob.pe/tarifario/.

  • For the children discount, is it valid the age the children have at the moment of bokking or when we are going to do the tour?

    The discount for children applies according to the age they have at the moment of making the tour. Separate from that, you have to send us the travel document at the moment of booking.

  • What document to I need to prove that I am a student?

    The students discount is valid as long as you are maximum 25 years old. The same way the discount is valid if, at the moment of booking, you send us a copy or picture of your university ID card. This card needs to have the following information:

    • Full name of the university.
    • Full name of the student.
    • Picture of the student.
    • Year on which it is valid (if you will viist Machu Picchu during 2020, the card must indicate 2020 on it).

    The following documents are not valid to prove you are a student:

    • Registration voucher.
    • Regular student certificate.
    • Transportation card for students.
    • ISIC card.
  • Why there are prices for type of accommodations in Aguas Calientes?

    The idea is be able to offer an option according to what you want to pay by the tour, even giving you the possibility to choose the accommodations in Aguas Calientes on your own.

  • What are the differences between accommodations?
    • Mapi Hostel: triple or quadruple shared room, with shared bathroom. Includes box lunch for breakfast.
    • Presidente Hostel or similar: single or double private room, with private bathroom. Includes box lunch for breakfast.
    • Tierra Viva Hotel (3 stars) or similar: single or double private room, with private bathroom. Includes breakfast.
  • What is the difference between the Machu Picchu citadel, Machu Picchu Mountain and Huayna Picchu Mountain?

    What commonly is known as "Machu Picchu" corresponds to the Historical Sanctuary of Machu Picchu, which is formed by different areas, among them the Machu Picchu citadel (archaeological center or ruins) and its two adjacent mountains: Machu Picchu and Huayna Picchu. The tour includes the entry ticket to the citadel, but not the entry to climb up one of the mountains, which you can add as an optional to your booking. You can check the technical details, similarities and differences of the mountains here.

  • How long does it take the visit to Machu Picchu?

    The visit has a duration of three hours, and is divided as follows: 1 hour for a guided tour by the citadel, and two hours to climb up and go down one of the optional mountains, or to go over freely by the citadel.

  • Which are the differences between the Expedition and Vistadome train categories?

    The Expedition category as well as the Vistadome category offer comfortable leather seats, and include a snack, and a cold or hot beverage per person. The first and main difference between both categories is that the Vistadome train has roof windows in the wagons, which allows you to have a panoramic view of the exterior. The second difference is that the Vistadome train offers entertainment services on board, like traditional dances and parades.

  • I have already bought my entry ticket to Machu Picchu, is it possible to book the program without the entry ticket added to the total price?

    Yes. To make the booking in this way, you have to write us at reservas@denomades.com, indicating the number of people travelling and the date you want to begin the program, and we will send to you the corresponding quotation along with the instructions to make the booking.

  • Is it possible to add an accommodation night in Aguas Calientes and return to Cusco a day after the tour?

    Yes. To make the booking in this way, you have to write us at reservas@denomades.com, indicating the number of people travelling and the date you want to begin the program, and we will send to you the corresponding quotation along with the instructions to make the booking.

  • How is the weather in Machu Picchu?

    Machu Picchu is located between the Andes Mountain Range and the Amazonas Jungle, having a warm and mild weather, with a minimum average temperature of 12°C and a maximum average temperature of 24°C. From April to October is the dry season in the place, that is to say, during this period there is a lower possibility of having rain, while from November to March is the rain season, that is to say, during this period there is a higher possibility of having rain. Nevertheless, during the whole year there is possibility of rain, because we are talking about a subtropical area.

Despite the 4x4 vehicle has space for 6 passengers plus the guide, the last seat of the vehicle is narrow, so, in case you want comfort for all the passengers, our suggestion is to make the tour in two groups of 3 people each (two separated bookings).
5 Select optional services
Remember that if you select this optional service, you will not be able to visit the archaeological site of Ollantaytambo at the end of the Sacred Valley tour, due to the Vistadome train departure.

I have used DeNomades to plan and organize a wonderful trip during our stay in San Pedro de Atacama. I wanted to make sure we control the buget, all is scheduled and of good quality. We only had 2 days but with DeNomades we were able to fit the itinerary of 4 days...

I just wanted to say a massive "thank you" to the Denomades team! I have booked a whopping 8 tours with them across 3 countries (Peru, Bolivia and Chile) and can only give them 5 stars across the board. They have been super-responsive, helpful and friendly...

Our group of friends booked two tours in La Paz. Booking was very fast and easy, and the guides were awesome! Up to now they were the best guides we met in all South America. I recommend Denomades for all!

We took the 4-day private tour to the Uyuni flat in Bolivia. Absolutely lovely experience. We had no previous recommendation about this agency/tour so it was a risky adventure. Replies to emails were immediate, help with payment was quick...
