Explore the ancient citadel of Machu Picchu with a guide. Travel from Cusco and spend the day at the sanctuary learning all you can about the area. Begin in the morning with pickup from your hotel or accommodation in Cusco. Head to the village of Ollantaytambo to take the train service. On the way, relax and admire the views of the wonderful Sacred Valley of the Incas. Marvel at the incredible landscapes until you reach the town of Aguas Calientes. Take a break from traveling to have some breakfast and then hop on the bus that will take 30 minutes to arrive at the Machu Picchu Sanctuary. Once you enter the Sanctuary, the guide will lead you around the citadel, pointing out areas and teaching you about the Inca Empire. Finishing the tour in the afternoon, return along the same route and the tour will end one block from the main square in Cusco.
