Machu Picchu (A Seven Wonders of the World0

mvtsgm, Jan 2020

I have been on few tours which can compare in excellence to this one. The logistics for a tour which had many moving parts were always right on time, guides were super in telling us what we saw and what it meant. The got us to our cars and buses and trains with ease. As a world class attraction Machu Picchu has many visitors so a professional guide like Harold made our day there the best. Prior to that, the tour of the sacred valley sites wa spectacular. Your two days are full, with a certain amount of climbing hills and stairs can be a challenge. Wear good hiking or walking shoes. There is no free time at Machu Picchu but the guide will take you through each part of the ruins. The order of this program, I thought was best, by getting to Calientes in the evening, spending the night and then the bus ride (20 minutes) up to Machu Picchu in the morning. You then spend around 3 hours inside the runins, A bit more relaxing than doing it in reverse. The current train ride to Calientes is 2 hours, with another 2 hours back to Cusco which is arranged by your tour company. While you can tour Machu Picchu on your own, I recommend a tour as the guide will not only provide information but handle your logistics as well. This way you can enjoy the scenery and the location you are in. You will have 2 very full, challenging days but the breathtaking scenery will make you glad you scheduled this tour.
