Overview

Now Machu Picchu is not more difficult to know or expensive, (Now it is cheaper and easy) For that reason was created one new alternative route to the traditional train travel route. This trip is for a new paved path from Cusco to Santa Maria then until Hidroeléctrica it is unpaved route, totally 6 hours by car with some stops along the way, like for picture and for lunch. For that reason it is not necessarily to use the expensive train services, After the trip by car we will walk around 2 or 3 hours until Aguas Calientes (Machu Picchu pueblo), during the trip you will enjoy beautiful landscapes, valleys, snow-capped mountains, high forest full of flora and rivers that descend from the top of mountains with very clear water and some villages of the local people are very friendly plowing pleasant trip to Inca city of Machu Picchu.
