Day 1: Cusco – Pisac Ruins – Ollantaytambo – Aguas Calientes.

To begin the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu 2 Days 1 Night, our professional guide who speaks English will pick you up from your hotel in Cusco at either 7:00 am or 8:00 am, depending on what train you will take to Aguas Calientes, after touring the Sacred Valley of the Incas.

Here, you will see the traditional animals of the Incas: llamas, alpacas, viñuna, and guanaco. Your guide will give you background information, show you a potato display and a textile center, showing how the wools are woven and colored. Good quality alpaca wool will be for sale.

Then, we’ll drive to El Mirador del Valle Sagrado, the Sacred Valley Lookout Point, for amazing views and photos. Following, we will visit the famous Pisaq Market, where women come down from the Andean villages to sell their textiles and vegetables. The market is open every day, but is busiest on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays. After the visit to the market, we will continue the journey up to the Pisaq Inca Archeological site, located on top of Pisaq Mountain in the Sacred Valley. Your tour guide will take you to the most impressive spots.

Then, we will drive along the valley for about 45 minutes, until we reach Urubamba, where we will stop for lunch. You will have an amazing selection of fresh dishes, served buffet-style.

Day 2: Sunrise in Machu Picchu – Cusco.

Today you will be visiting the famous Sacred City of the Incas, the crystal city of the Inca civilization. You will determine, with your tour guide, the best time to start your day. Most people prefer to rise at 4:45 a.m. walk to the bus station to take one of the first buses up to Machu Picchu. It can be enjoyable to arrive at the ruins as soon as they open, at 6 a.m., to catch the magical mists on the ruins as the sun rises. After a 25 minute bus ride to Machu Picchu, your tour guide will take you to the best views before the day trippers arrive.

Then, we will start the two hour guided, walking tour, exploring all of the famous places of this impressive citadel: The Temple of the Sun, The Royal Tomb, The Intiwatana (sun dial rock), Main Plaza, Temple of the 3 Windows, The Artisan Sector, the Condor Temple and many others.

If you chose not to book a hike, you can climb to the Sun Gate and witness its amazing views. After that you will need to take the bus back down to Aguas Calientes to enjoy lunch (Not included) at one of the many restaurants there.

 Verified Humantay & 🌈-Mountains Absolutely excellent service! Despite a mix-up where we were picked up by the wrong bus and missed our original tour, the travel agency handled everything with great professionalism and flexibility. They took responsibility right away and made rebooking a new tour incredibly easy and stress-free. We really appreciated how understanding and accommodating their team was throughout the process. Thanks to their quick response, we were able to enjoy an equally fantastic tour, and their willingness to resolve the issue left a lasting positive impression.Overall, a great example of excellent customer service. We’ll happily book with them again!

Amazing 3-Day Manu National Park…

Amazing 3-Day Manu National Park Experience with Manu Jungle Tour Our 3-day Manu National Park tour with Manu Jungle Tour was an unforgettable experience. From the very beginning, everything was well organized and professionally managed. The journey from Cusco offered stunning scenery, from the Andes to the Amazon rainforest. Our guide was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about wildlife. We were able to see monkeys, colorful birds, reptiles, and a wide variety of plants, while learning about the unique ecosystems and local communities of the region. The lodge was comfortable, the meals were delicious, and the overall experience felt authentic and well-balanced between adventure and comfort. This tour is perfect for travelers who want to explore the Amazon in a short time without missing the highlights. We highly recommend Manu Jungle Tour to anyone looking for a genuine and memorable jungle adventure in Peru.
