Day by day itinerary
1San Martin Port - Cusco⌄
At 7:00 am, we will pick you up directly from inside San Martin Port with our private transport and transfer you to the airport for your flight to Cusco. Upon arrival in Cusco, our team will be there to assist you and take you to your hotel. The afternoon will be free for you to explore the city at your own pace. The flight from Lima to Cusco takes approximately 1 hour and 20 minutes. Please keep in mind that Cusco sits at an altitude of around 3,400 metres (11,150 feet), so we strongly recommend taking it easy on the first day to help your body acclimatise to the high altitude. Important note: The pickup time may vary depending on the exact time your cruise ship docks and when disembarkation begins. Some ships arrive as early as 6:00 am, while others disembark around 9:00 am. For this reason, we kindly ask that you confirm your arrival time at least one week in advance so that we can provide your exact pickup schedule and ensure a smooth transfer. (No meals)
Overnight: Overnight at Casa Andina Premium Cusco in DWB or Twin Superior room with breakfast.
2Machu Picchu⌄
Pick-up at 5:00 am for the train to Aguas Calientes. The scenic journey takes around 3.5 hours. Upon arrival, you’ll receive assistance and enjoy a private guided tour of Machu Picchu. There are two circuit options: Circuit 2 (Classic Route): This is the most complete route, including the main viewpoints, the Temple of the Sun, Intihuatana (the Solar Clock), Sacred Rock, and Temple of the Three Windows, among others. This circuit involves more walking and stairs but offers the most iconic and extensive views of Machu Picchu. Circuit 3 (Lower Route): A shorter and less demanding route that covers the lower part of Machu Picchu, including the agricultural zone, Temple of the Condor, and water fountains. While less panoramic, it’s still impressive and suitable for those looking for a more moderate walk. Both require advance booking and passport. After the visit, return to Aguas Calientes for lunch (not included). In the afternoon, board the train back to your hotel in Cusco.
Meals: Breakfast
Overnight: Overnight at Casa Andina Premium Cusco in DWB or Twin Superior room with breakfast.
