Stay at Hotel Pakaritampu for 2 nights with breakfast included, a tranquil hotel in Ollantaytambo surrounded by gardens and Inca terraces. With your guide, visit the circular crop laboratories of Moray and the striking Maras salt pans, still harvested by hand. Enjoy a hands-on weaving demonstration in a Quechua village and learn how ancient traditions survive today. Fancy a picnic lunch in the valley or a scenic trail walk? We’ll build it in.
Time to embark on Inca Trail!
Begin your four-day Inca Trail with your private trekking team. This classic route takes you past remote archaeological sites, cloud forest ridges and the legendary Dead Woman’s Pass. Meals, tents and gear are included – all you need to bring is your sense of adventure. Highlights include Wiñay Wayna, Phuyupatamarca, and a breathtaking sunrise entrance to Machu Picchu through the Sun Gate.

Sunrise exploration of the Lost City
After your sunrise arrival, explore the full wonder of Machu Picchu with your guide. Trace the temples, terraces and royal quarters of this astonishing citadel and hear the stories that bring it to life. After descending to Aguas Calientes, stay at Casa Andina Standard Machu Picchu for 1 night with breakfast included. This is the perfect time for a celebratory meal or soothing soak.

Explore the city’s Incan and Spanish heritage on a private walking tour, from Qorikancha’s golden walls to the vast fortress of Sacsayhuamán. There’s plenty of time to browse craft markets, join a pisco-making workshop or dine at one of Cusco’s rising-star restaurants. Want to explore more ruins or try paddleboarding on Piuray Lake? We can arrange that.
