Machupicchu 2d/1n
DESCRIPTION:
If you really want to experience Machu Picchu we recommend a 2 day trip as the archaeological site is so vast that to really get an idea of how the Inka´s lived and worked 2 days is better.
ITINERARY:
Day 1.
You leave Cusco early in the morning to arrive in Aguas Calientes at 10am. Here you check into our hotel and freshen up before and early lunch allowing us the entire afternoon in Machu Picchu.
Your guide will teach you about the history of Machu Picchu and its flora and fauna. Machu Picchu and the Inka Trail are home to many varieties of orchids and birds, with hummingbirds almost always in the sanctuary. It os also a fantastic place to see indigenous butterflies.
After a guided tour of around 2 hours you have time to enjoy Machu Picchu without the daytime crowds. Return to Aguas Calientes. Group dinner in the evening.
Day 2.
After breakfast you take the bus to Mahcu Picchu arriving at the citadel at around 7.30am. Your guide will continue your lesson in Inka civilisation.
