Day 2.- Machu Picchu Private Tours

Enjoy your early breakfast and then take the 25-minute bus up to Machu Picchu. Your approximately two-hour guided tour begins, and you’ll visit the most important areas: the Guard House, the Sun Temple, the royalty area, the Main Plaza, the Three Windows Temple, and the Sacred Sun Dial among other attractions. All areas are connected by narrow paths and steps, so be prepared for a bit of walking.

After your tour, you’ll have about 2 hours of free time to explore the citadel. If you want to hike Huayna Picchu, we typically purchase entrance tickets for the second group at 10:00 am to enjoy the sun rising over Machu Picchu. You’ll take the train back to Ollantaytambo, where you’ll be picked up and driven back to your hotel in Cusco.
