Descripción del Tour
Experience an alternative and unforgettable journey to the majestic citadel of Machu Picchu, combining breathtaking Andean landscapes, scenic mountain roads, cloud forest ecosystems, and an adventurous hike to the charming town of Aguas Calientes.
This program is ideal for travelers seeking a different route to Machu Picchu while enjoying an overland journey filled with extraordinary natural contrasts—from towering snow-capped peaks and traditional Andean villages to the lush tropical gateway of the Cusco jungle.
Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the most remarkable archaeological destinations on Earth, Machu Picchu showcases the extraordinary engineering, spirituality, and harmony with nature achieved by the Inca civilization.
This adventure takes you through one of the most scenic routes in southern Peru, culminating in a visit to one of the world’s most celebrated wonders.
Itinerario
DAY 1: CUSCO – OLLANTAYTAMBO – ABRA MÁLAGA – HYDROELECTRIC STATION – AGUAS CALIENTES
Your adventure begins with hotel pickup in Cusco at approximately 7:40 a.m. as we travel by tourist van toward the Sacred Valley.
Along the route, we pass through Ollantaytambo while enjoying spectacular views of the Andes, traditional villages, fertile valleys, and dramatic mountain landscapes.
We then continue along a winding scenic road toward Abra Málaga, located at 4,316 m / 14,160 ft above sea level, one of the highest and most spectacular points of the journey.
From there, we begin our descent into the cloud forest, passing through diverse ecological zones and microclimates where snow-capped mountains gradually give way to lush tropical vegetation and stunning natural scenery.
We continue toward Santa Teresa and the Hydroelectric Station, where we will enjoy lunch at approximately 1:30 p.m.
After lunch, we begin our scenic hike from the Hydroelectric Station to Aguas Calientes. This pleasant walk covers approximately 10 kilometers (6.2 miles) and takes around 3 hours, following a route surrounded by mountains, rivers, and abundant vegetation.
Upon arrival in Aguas Calientes, our staff will welcome you and assist with your hotel check-in.
Later, you will meet with your guide for a briefing regarding the following day’s visit to Machu Picchu.
For those who wish, there is an optional opportunity to visit the famous Aguas Calientes Hot Springs, the perfect way to relax after the day’s adventure.
DAY 2: MACHU PICCHU – HYDROELECTRIC STATION – CUSCO
Early in the morning, at approximately 5:30 a.m., you will enjoy breakfast at your hotel before boarding the shuttle bus to Machu Picchu.
Your guide will meet you at the entrance of the citadel at approximately 7:00 a.m. to begin a guided tour lasting around 2 hours.
During the visit, you will explore the most important sectors of Machu Picchu while learning about its fascinating history, architecture, symbolism, and enduring mysteries.
Following the guided tour, you will have free time until approximately 10:30 a.m., allowing you to further appreciate the sanctuary before beginning the return journey toward the Hydroelectric Station.
Upon arrival, you may enjoy lunch before boarding our tourist van back to Cusco.
Departure is scheduled for approximately 3:00 p.m., with arrival in Cusco around 10:00 p.m.
