Itinerary

Upon arrival at Jorge Chávez International Airport, a representative and private transport will be waiting to transfer you to your selected hotel.

A private transfer will take you to the airport for your domestic flight to Cusco. Upon arrival, a representative will escort you to your hotel. Enjoy a guided tour of the enchanting former Inca capital, visiting the Santo Domingo Convent built over the ancient Coricancha temple, the Cathedral Basilica, the impressive fortress of Sacsayhuamán, and the archaeological complexes of Qenqo, Puca Pucará, and Tambomachay.

Your guide will pick you up to visit the charming town of Chinchero, known for its impressive agricultural terraces and a 17th-century church built over an ancient Inca palace. Continue to the Living Museum of Yucay, where you'll witness the creation of textiles, ceramics, and silverware using ancestral techniques. Enjoy a traditional lunch in the Sacred Valley before visiting the impressive fortress of Ollantaytambo, a major ceremonial center with terraces stretching across the mountains.

A shared transfer will take you from your hotel in Urubamba to Ollantaytambo Station, where you'll board the Voyager train to Aguas Calientes. A 25-minute bus ride brings you to Machu Picchu — a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, believed to have been built as a retreat for Emperor Pachacútec. A guided tour will walk you through its most iconic landmarks. Enjoy a delicious lunch at Café Inkaterra with unique views of the Vilcanota River. Return to Cusco aboard the 360° train.

Board a shared transport from Cusco to Puno, with stops along the way. First, visit Andahuaylillas, a charming village known as the "Sistine Chapel of the Americas." Then explore Raqchi and the impressive Temple of Wiracocha. Enjoy lunch in Sicuani before a brief stop at La Raya, the highest point of the journey at 4,313 meters above sea level. Arrive in Puno via the ancient settlement of Pucará.

Discover Lake Titicaca, the world's highest navigable lake. A boat will take you to the fascinating floating islands of the Uros, an ancient community that lives on artificial islands woven from totora reeds.
