4-Day Cusco and Machu Picchu Adventure – Overview:

Day 1: Cusco – Where the Past and Present Collide

Pick-up time: 12:00 AM at your hotel in Cusco.

Cusco isn’t just a city—it’s a living, breathing contradiction, where ancient Incan foundations hold up Spanish colonial churches, where bustling modern cafés serve cappuccinos on cobbled streets that once echoed with the footsteps of Incan emperors.

Your journey begins in Plaza de Armas, the beating heart of Cusco. The air is thin, but it’s charged with energy—street musicians play haunting Andean melodies, Quechua-speaking vendors offer handmade alpaca textiles, and the scent of roasted Peruvian coffee drifts through the air.

Inside Qorikancha (Temple of the Sun), sunlight filters through the perfectly carved stone walls—walls so precisely fitted that not even a blade of grass can slide between them. The Incas knew something about architecture that we still don’t fully understand.

Then, there’s Sacsayhuamán—a fortress? A temple? A cosmic observatory? No one knows for sure. But standing among its massive stones, some weighing over 200 tons, you can’t help but wonder: how did they do it?

And just when you think Cusco can’t surprise you anymore, you find yourself in Q’enqo, Puka Pukara, and Tambomachay, where the Incas worshipped water, stars, and the forces of nature.

Return to your accommodation between 5:00 to 6:00 pm

Overnight in Cusco

Day 2: The Sacred Valley – Secrets of the Andes

Pick-up time: 8:30 AM at your hotel in Cusco.

There’s something about the Sacred Valley that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into another world. Maybe it’s the way the morning mist drapes over the Andes, or the way the rivers carve their way through deep green valleys, whispering stories of the past.

First stop: Maras Salt Mines. Picture this: thousands of tiny salt pools cascading down the mountainside, reflecting the sky like a giant natural mirror. This isn’t just a tourist attraction—it’s a living tradition. Locals have been harvesting salt here since before the Spanish arrived. And when you taste a pinch of that mineral-rich, sun-dried salt, you realize: this land doesn’t just sustain life—it flavors it.

Next, we descend into Moray, an Incan agricultural laboratory that looks more like an alien crop circle. The Incas, being the geniuses they were, engineered microclimates here to experiment with different crops. Some say they were thousands of years ahead of their time.

By mid-afternoon, we reach Ollantaytambo—a town frozen in time. The narrow stone alleys, the water channels still flowing from Incan times, the imposing fortress that watches over everything—it feels like a scene from an adventure film. But this isn’t fiction. This is real.

And tonight, you sleep in the last living Incan town, gearing up for what comes next: Machu Picchu.

Overnight in Ollantaytambo

Day 3: Machu Picchu – The Lost City of the Incas (With Private Guide)

This is it. The reason you came.

At 7:20 AM, you board the train from Ollantaytambo, watching the landscape shift from dry highlands to lush Amazonian cloud forest. The anticipation builds. The air gets warmer. The mountains grow taller.

Then, the first glimpse: Machu Picchu, wrapped in mist, revealing itself like a dream slowly coming into focus.

Entrance to Machu Picchu from 11:00 am to 1:00pm in Circuit 2 if you book at least 4 months in advance otherwise will be circuit 1 or 3 according to availability.

Unlike many travelers who navigate this wonder in large groups, your experience will be different. You’ll have a private guide, ensuring a personalized and in-depth journey through the mysteries of this legendary city.

Your Exclusive Machu Picchu Experience Includes:

✔️ A private guided tour, allowing for a deeper connection to the site.
✔️ Time to explore iconic landmarks, such as the Temple of the Sun, the Main Plaza, and the Intihuatana stone.
✔️ The flexibility to move at your own pace, with the guide adapting to your interests.

By 2:30 PM, you board the return train. Watching the sun dip behind the Andes as you make your way back to Cusco, you feel it: this place has changed you.

Overnight in Cusco

Day 4: Farewell, Cusco – Until Next Time

Four days ago, Cusco was just another stop on your map. Now, it’s a part of you.

With your last sip of freshly brewed Peruvian coffee, you take one final look at the Andes, knowing this isn’t goodbye—it’s see you later.
