The trail only permits 500 people per day (including guides, chefs, and porters) so Inca Trail permits can sell out 6-months in advance.

Do Inca Expert tours have specific start dates?

No, our Peru tours can start any day of the year. Our trips are fully customizable; you can choose the start and end date of your trip, the specific destinations you want to see, the hotels you prefer, and the tours you want for a unique experience.

How much time do I need to see Peru?

Give yourself at least 4 days in Peru to avoid being affected by altitude sickness when visiting Machu Picchu. Most visitors exploring the iconic sites of Cusco, the Sacred Valley, and Machu Picchu spend between 7 - 10 days in Peru. If you want to add destinations like the Amazon Rainforest, Lake Titicaca, Arequipa, or the Nazca Lines, allot 2-4 days for each destination depending on the destinations and tours you want.

How do I get to Machu Picchu?

After arriving at Lima's Jorge Chavez International Airport, take an hour and a half flight from Lima to the city of Cusco. In Cusco, a scenic train ride will transfer you 3 hours and 15 minutes to the quaint town of Aguas Calientes at the base of Machu Picchu. A 30-minute shuttle bus ascends you to the main entrance of the Machu Picchu citadel. You can also opt to hike one of the famous treks to Machu Picchu from Cusco or the Sacred Valley like the Inca Trail, Lares Trek, or Salkantay Trek instead of the train.

We recommend you pace yourself and arrive at Machu Picchu gradually to avoid being affected by altitude sickness. Spending one or two nights in Cusco will acclimate your body to the high altitude and result in a more enjoyable experience at Machu Picchu.

When is the best time to travel to Peru?

The best time to visit Peru is during Peru's winter months between May and September. This is the dry season in the Andes which offers favorable weather patterns for the most popular sites in Peru like Machu Picchu, Cusco, the Inca Trail, and the Amazon Rainforest in Puerto Maldonado. The prime time to visit coastal Lima is during Peru's summer months between December and April to enjoy the warm summer sunshine and coastal beaches.

Do I need a visa to enter Peru?

Travelers from the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the European Union, and select other countries do not need a tourist visa to enter Peru. Do note that all travelers must have a passport that is valid for more than six months after your departure date. Upon arrival at Lima's Jorge Chavez International Airport, Peruvian Immigrations will stamp your passport and mark the number of days you are permitted to stay, typically 90 days.

For specific information about visa requirements for your country, visit VisaHQ.

Is Peru safe?

Yes, Peru is a safe tourist destination to travel to. Travelers should exercise regular caution by keeping expensive items in your hotel safety box, keeping an eye on personal belongings, and being aware of your surroundings in crowded areas like markets.

Our Top Pick hotels are all located in safe, convenient locations and come equipped with safes for storing your valuables.

For safety information regarding Covid-19, please review our updated post about coronavirus in Peru.

Consult your doctor and visit the CDC Peru website for more information about vaccination recommendations and requirements in Peru.

Should I go to Lima?

We think - yes! Lima houses something for every kind of traveler, world-renowned gastronomy that brings travelers specifically to Lima, a UNESCO downtown historic center, top museums like Larco Museum, art galleries, shopping malls overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and adventure activities like paragliding over the Lima skyline or surfing. Since you'll be landing at Lima's Jorge Chavez International Airport anyway, why not add on an extra day in Peru's capital?

Contact an Inca Expert travel advisor to see if Lima would be worth adding to your Peru trip.

What language do Peruvians speak?

Spanish is the primary language spoken in Peru as a result of being colonized by Spain in 1533. The indigenous languages of Quechua and Aymara are also official languages of Peru that can be encountered more often in rural areas. Even though English is not widely spoken in Peru, your guides, hotel personnel, and the use of a language translator like Google Translate will make your time in Peru easy.

All Inca Expert tours are done in private with English-speaking local guides.

Can you drink the tap water in Peru?

No. Tap water in Peru is not safe to drink unless purified or boiled. Travelers should purchase bottled water. You can also utilize refill stations with boiled or filtered water often available in your hotel lobby. Boiled drinks like coffee and tea are safe to drink.

What is transportation like on Inca Expert's Peru tours?

Inca Expert prearranges all transportation for your Peru tour to give you complete peace of mind. Private, clean, and roomy H1 or Sprinter vans will meet you at your hotels or airport and bring you from A to B. Choose between the Luxury Hiram Bingham train or Vistadome Train to Machu Picchu. If traveling from Lima to the Nazca Lines or Paracas, a VIP bus with large seats and ample leg-room will be reserved in your name.

Do I need to buy a voltage converter/plug adapter for my Peru trip?

You may need to bring a voltage converter and electrical plug adaptor for your electronics when traveling in Peru. Peru uses 220-volt electricity, instead of 110-volts. If your device does not have built-in dual voltage (110V/220V) you will need an adaptor so your electronics do not surge. Most mobile phones, laptops, and cameras have this built-in, but be sure to double-check before plugging in. Most electrical outlets, like the ones in top-rated hotels, are now designed to support both the American flat-pronged plug and the European round-prong plug, but if you plan to charge your devices offsite from your hotel, it will be handy to have a Type C plug adapter just in case.

Can I use ATMs and credit cards in Peru?

Yes. ATMs are abundant in major cities but generally charge a $3-$6 fee to your debit card to use the machine. Locations include BCP, Scotiabank, Interbank, BBVA Continental, and more. Credit cards are widely accepted in Peru with VISA being the major credit card provider. Always keep some Peruvian soles on hand because some locations offer discounts for cash, and local markets and street vendors only accept soles.

How much do I tip?

It is customary to tip in Peru for exceptional services as you'll receive on a tour with Inca Expert. The exact amount is up to your discretion, but we recommend:

Guide: Half-day private tour - 30-35 soles ($8-$10 USD) Full-day private tour - 50-60 soles ($14-$16 USD)

Driver: Half-day private tour - 5 soles ($1.50 USD) Full-day private tour - 10 soles ($3 USD)

4-Day Inca Trail/ Multi-day Trekking tour: Guide: 60-80 soles per person ($16-USD 22) Chef: 115 soles collective tip (USD 30 collective tip) Porters: 100 soles per porter collective tip (USD 25 per porter collective tip)

Servers: 10% of the total bill

What is the exchange rate?

The exchange rate for US dollars (USD) to Peruvian Soles (PEN) is currently $1 USD to 3.77 PEN. Money can be exchanged at an exchange house (casa de cambio) in any destination in Peru though bigger cities like Cusco, Arequipa, and Lima will have more options to find the best rates.

Will I experience symptoms of altitude sickness on my Peru tour?

40-50% of travelers experience minor symptoms of altitude sickness, also known as Acute Mountain Sickness, like shortness of breath, fatigue, and dizziness when traveling in high altitude destinations in Peru such as on the Inca Trail, in Cusco, Arequipa, and Lake Titicaca. Symptoms of altitude sickness generally alleviate after 24-48 hours in altitude. Best practices for minimizing its impact on your trip include taking the time to acclimate, drinking lots of water, resting, avoiding alcohol, and eating light non-fatty foods upon arrival at altitude.

Consult with your doctor before traveling to high altitude destinations.

Peru: Luxury & Private Trips

Home to Machu Picchu , a landmark inscribed as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, Peru needs no introduction. A visit to the mountaintop citadel is arresting, but it’s the journey into the Peruvian heartland—and back in time—that grips travelers with a history that’s hot to the touch. Stone ruins, spirituality, astrology, ritual, and cryptic symbols decipher a fascinating story of the Incan people and their ingenious technologies.

In cities like Lima , Cusco , and Arequipa , the influence of Spanish colonization is worn on colonial facades and plazas. But Peru’s appeal is not written exclusively in the past tense. The capital is a hotbed of globally recognized restaurants; ecotourism and adventure travel are firmly entrenched in the Amazon and Sacred Valley ; and a host of experiential lodgings, from treehouses to cliffside pods, eschew the ordinary.

At this confluence of time and place, ancient and modern, ocean and Andes, Peru embodies some of the best South American luxury travel for the wild at heart.  

What is Peru best known for?

You’d be hard-pressed to find an itinerary that doesn’t visit Lima, Cusco, and Machu Picchu, but don’t confuse this well-trodden route for a whistlestop tour. It’s easy to shirk the crowds in the country’s more remote pockets, and there are plenty of small but equally worthy locations that rightfully deserve to feature on a luxury Peru trip, like the Amazon, Arequipa, Colca Canyon, Northern Peru, and Lake Titicaca.

Peru travel highlights

  • Watch the morning mist part, revealing the wonder of Machu Picchu .
  • Multi-day guided Machu Picchu hiking tours trekking along the Inca Trail, Salkantay Trek or Lares Trek.
  • Peruse pre-Colombian art at Larco Herrera Museum, visit Plaza Mayor, and dine at world-class restaurants in Lima .
  • Track wildlife in the Amazon rainforest , staying in an ecolodge or on a luxurious small ship.
  • Visit Incan ruins in the Sacred Valley while making time for rafting, biking, ziplining, or hiking.
  • Slow down, acclimate, shop, and caffeinate in charming Cusco .
  • Visit Lake Titicaca to see its floating islands
  • Spot condors circling overhead in Colca Canyon , one of the world’s deepest.
  • Admire arcades and grand cathedrals backdropped by volcanoes in Arequipa .
  • Visit the rainbow-banded Ausangate , perhaps on a lodge-to-lodge trek.
  • Prioritize well-being at a mountain lodge spa where self-care rituals are rooted in spirituality.
  • Experience one of the world’s tallest waterfalls and ruins that pre-date the Incas in the Chachapoyas region of Northern Peru .

What to expect on a luxury trip to Peru

Memorable lodging : From eco-lodges tucked deep in the Amazon to charming city hotels in renovated historic buildings, your luxury accommodations will emote a strong sense of place. More than just a hotel, our preferred accommodations will connect you deeper to the communities they give back to.

Expert local guides: Welcoming, English-speaking expert guides will help interpret all things Peru while imparting a local perspective. From food to architecture to birding, we love to arrange private tours that speak to EJ travelers’ special interests.

Small ship sailing through calm river surrounded by jungle

Culture : Over the centuries and still today, numerous indigenous peoples have called Peru home. While the Inca ruins are exceptional, make sure you also take some time to learn about the Wari, Moche, and Chimu civilizations, as well as the traditions of the contemporary Quechua people.

Astounding history: History buffs will adore Peru’s profusion of pre-Incan, Incan, Indigenous, and Spanish landmarks and ruins.

Dining: Tantalize your taste buds in Lima, the unofficial gastronomic capital of South America. Indulge in the freshest ceviche, sample street-side anticuchos skewers slathered in garlic sauce, and sample “ cuy ” (guinea pig).

Jaw-dropping scenery : Pacific coast, dense jungle, Andean peaks, volcanoes, altiplano , canyons, and valleys—Peru has it all.

If you’re looking for a quick but comprehensive Machu Picchu trip, you’ll need a minimum of five or six nights—longer yet, if you’re trekking. If you want to venture further afield during your Peru luxury vacation, experiencing highlights like the Sacred Valley, the Amazon, Colca Canyon, Lima, and Lake Titicaca, you’ll want at least 10 to 14 days.

With a diverse cooking style that reflects the country’s history, Peru is a foodie’s paradise. Its restaurant scene is having its moment in the sun, with local chefs gaining international recognition. Modern Peruvian cuisine is grounded in staples like potatoes, corn, and quinoa, which are ubiquitous in the mountains.; along the coast, you’ll find the freshest ceviche. You’ll also find strong Spanish, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, and West African influences. The result? Tantalizing and unexpected fusion cuisine.

The currency is the Peruvian Sol. ATMs are widely available and credit cards are broadly accepted in shops and restaurants.

Peru has three official languages: Spanish, Quechua and Aymara. Guides speak fluent English. Hotel staff, drivers, market vendors, and shop owners may have limited English, but they’re eager to communicate with travelers.

Altitude affects everyone differently. As travel designers, we take care to give you plenty of time in an itinerary to acclimatize before continuing on to higher altitudes.

Yes, Peru is generally a safe place to travel. However, as with all tourist destinations, it’s wise to exercise caution with your belongings and practice situational awareness. Peru is a casual country, so wearing high-end jewelry and watches will attract attention.

No, American citizens do not need a tourist visa to visit Peru.

There are three ways to visit Machu Picchu : on a multi-day guided trek; via a scenic train from Ollantaytambo to Agues Calientes; or on a one-day trek that arrives at Machu Picchu’s famous Sun Gate.

You need to train and be physically prepared if you want to take on the challenge of the Inca Trail . A traditional four-night Inca Trail trek is strenuous, as you’ll be traversing mountains at high altitude. The trails are rugged but well-maintained, so good hiking boots and poles are necessary if you’re going to triumph over the steep, rocky terrain. 

There is a shorter route if you want to hike, but not camp overnight. Travelers can do the “km104”, which is the final day of the Inca Trail—a seven-mile hike up to Machu Picchu that arrives at the site’s famous Sun Gate. It’s still a relatively difficult hike with lots of steps and plenty of incline and decline through mountains. It can take anywhere from four to eight hours.

Peru’s dry season, which runs from May to October, is the best time to visit Machu Picchu. The Inca Trail closes each February, the wettest month, for maintenance.

When is the best time to visit Peru?

The dry season, which runs from May to October, is considered the best time to visit Peru. However, it’s wise to consider the following when planning luxury travel in Peru:

  • Weather patterns in Peru can be complicated and vary widely by region, but as a rule, there are two main seasons: wet and dry.
  • If you’re exploring at high altitudes, it will be colder, so pack appropriately and dress in layers.
  • The dry season, which is characterized by sunny days and chilly nights, coincides with the peak season, which runs from May through October. Note: you can still experience the occasional showers during dry season.
  • June, July, and August are the busiest months. If you can travel during the shoulder periods of April/May or September/October, you’ll avoid the crowds.
  • Festive season runs from mid-December to early January, so expect a bump in rates and lower vacancy. Book well in advance if you plan to travel at this time.
  • During the wet season, which runs from November to April, days are hot and humid, and there’s a high chance of heavy rainfall. Nights are chilly during wet season.
  • The wettest months are January, February, and March, when multi-day treks to Machu Picchu are discouraged. In fact, most of the trails are closed for maintenance in February.
  • During the winter, the mountains are foggy and Lima is covered in a thick gray fog. However, the coast generally stays dry at this time. Therefore, Peruvian beaches and deserts are good add-on options no matter what time of year you’re taking a luxury trip to Peru.
  • The Amazon is hot and humid and experiences showers all year round—giving it a rainy season and a “rainier” season. January and February bring higher water levels and slightly higher temperatures (reaching the mid-90s), but it’s still a great time to visit because the wildlife is very active.

Canyon and mountains

Where to travel to in Peru

With 15 vast nature reserves, 12 incredible UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and 14 national parks encompassing everything from one of the deepest canyons on the planet ( Colca ) to the highest navigable lake in the world ( Lake Titicaca), and one of the tallest waterfalls in the world (Gocta), there’s more Peru than can be squeezed into a single trip. These are the cities and regions that popularly feature on itineraries.

Machu Picchu

Machu Picchu is a must-see for most travelers on a luxury trip to Peru. Built almost 8,000 feet above sea level back in the 15th century, this obscured city’s existence almost defies belief. Adding to its wonder is its isolation. Cradled by mountains and bisected by the Urubamba River, Aguas Calientes—Machu Picchu’s touristic stopover—is reached exclusively by train. From here, a winding road carves up the mountains to reach Machu Picchu. Of course, if you’re up for a multi-night trek, you can arrive on foot via the Inca Trail or Salkantay Trek.  

Cusco & the Sacred Valley

Lose yourself in the beating heart of Peru in the UNESCO-designated city of Cusco . For the Incas, this was the center of the world. Today, the high-altitude city boasts a whole host of Spanish and pre-Columbian landmarks and is known as the gateway to the Sacred Valley. This valley is home to an incredible wealth of archaeological sites, including Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo, Tipon, Pisac, Maras, and Moray.

Lima features on most Peru luxury trips, but sometimes travelers rush through—which we think is a mistake. Linger a while in Lima to gaze upon the impressive historical buildings around the Plaza Mayor, peruse the impressive collection of pre-Columbian artifacts at the Larco Herrera Museum, dine at one of the world’s most vibrant restaurant scenes, and party late into the evening in Miraflores.

Peruvian Amazon

Head to Iquitos to hop on a luxurious cruise or make a beeline for Puerto Maldonado to explore Tambopata National Reserve. The Peruvian Amazon , the fourth largest rainforest in the world, is home to more than 180 reptile, 262 amphibian, 293 mammal, 697 fish, 806 bird, and 2,500 butterfly species. On a boat safari or jungle hike, you might stumble upon rainbow-colored macaws, monkeys, otters, elusive jaguars, and tapirs. There are opportunities to participate in citizen-assisted research and sustainable, community-rooted travel. Lodgings include stylish (and airconditioned) riverboats and rustic-luxe, land-based eco-lodges. 

Colca Canyon

Lace-up your hiking boots to explore Colca —one of the world’s deepest canyons. In fact, the canyon is so steep in certain sections that you can not see the bottom of the valley. Colca’s higher rims are adorned with some of the finest examples of pre-Inca terracing in Peru. Immerse yourself in a world of towering mountains, emerald valleys, traditional villages, herds of llamas, and colorfuly attired locals.

Lake Titicaca

Lake Titicaca —the highest navigable lake in the world—is known for its unique man-made floating islands. The Uros people started constructing Islas Uros homes from totora reeds centuries ago when they were retreating from the Incas. Each island takes around two months of communal work to build and lasts around 12 to 15 years. Visit the Temple of Pachamama (Mother Earth) on the basket-weavers’ island of Amantani, or watch traditional weavers spin fine alpaca wool on the island of Taquile.

Sitting at the foot of the ice-capped El Misti volcano, Arequipa is adorned with some of Peru’s finest colonial churches and mansions—many of which were built using white volcanic sillar cut from the surrounding mountains. Go for a stroll around Monasterio de Santa Catalina, which dates back to the late 16th century, stopping off to sample city’s famous cuy chactado (fried guinea pig served with toasted maize, chilis, and black Andean mint) and catch a performance by the folk musicians who wander from peña to peña.

Machu Picchu Luxury Tours, Peru

A fascinating journey into the ancient Inca Empire

LUXURY TRAVEL MACHU PICCHU

Your luxury tour of Machu Picchu will combine the highlights of Incan history and colorful local culture with outdoor adventures set amidst the majestic Andes. After your international arrival into Lima, head via domestic flight to the Sacred Valley, a beautiful landscape dotted with important Incan sites, where options for hiking, biking, and horseback riding abound. Your luxury Machu Picchu tour begins in the lush jungle surrounding the famous landmark; you will have the option to hike into the historic citadel through the same entrance used by the Incans, or ride aboard the luxurious Hiram Bingham train. After exploring the site with your private guide, you will head to the city of Cusco where you will continue your luxury Peru tour . There, experience the day-to-day rhythms of traditional Andean life as you explore the San Pedro market with a local chef and wander through the winding streets of Cusco, where impressive Incan masonry still predominates.

PRIVATE TOUR MACHU PICCHU

or speak to your Travel Professional

Lima (1 night)

Your luxury Machu Picchu tour starts as you land in Lima, where you will be greeted by your personal host and taken to your hotel.

Sacred Valley (2 nights)

Receive assistance with check-in for your flight to Cusco the following morning. Upon arrival, your personal guide will show you the best of the Sacred Valley. Highlights include a multi-course Peruvian lunch at the elegant Hacienda Huayoccari, served in the historic dining room surrounded by colonial art. Afterward, go horseback riding along local trails on Peruvian Paso horses, a unique breed known for its smooth ride. Along the way, take in spectacular views of the Andes and the lush valley’s agricultural farms. Alternatively, you can experience a Shaman meditation ceremony arranged especially for your private party after lunch. Finally, spend the rest of the afternoon relaxing at your lodge in the heart of the Sacred Valley.

The next day, head by private transfer to the village of Cruzpata, where you will embark on an exciting mountain biking excursion to the terraced ruins of Moray. As you bike across the rolling hills of the valley, you will witness daily rituals of Peruvian rural life, such as local families working their cornfields. Stop at a secluded spot facing the impressive Andes for a gourmet picnic lunch before you reach the ruins of Moray. Once there, enjoy a private tour with your expert local guide.

From Moray, your private tour of Peru continues with a private transfer to Maras, a pre-Incan site that has continuously produced salt for centuries. The terraces are divided into over 3,000 salt pools still harvested to this day by local families. Next, head into the village of Maras for a private tasting of pisco – a famous local brandy – at an exclusive house. You will then return to your lodge to rest before visiting the highlight of any luxury Peru tour: the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Machu Picchu.

Machu Picchu (2 nights)

Experience an awe-inspiring train ride along the towering Andes and the Quechua-speaking villages of the Sacred Valley as you head toward Machu Picchu. Either disembark the train at kilometer 104 and hike the last portion of the Inca Trail with your personal guide (passing through the Gate of the Sun) or take the luxurious Hiram Bingham train to Aguas Calientes, near Machu Picchu.

Check in to the Machu Picchu Sanctuary Lodge, an exclusive lodge that overlooks the ruins, surrounded by gardens. Alternatively, stay at the enchanting Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel, nestled between steep mountain walls of Andean greenery in the valley below the ruins. You’ll wander through the ruins, trek to the Gate of the Sun, or ascend Machu Picchu Mountain; from above the clouds, take in the views of the Andes’ peaks. Blue Parallel will plan your daily hikes based on your activity level and interests.

Cusco (2 nights)

Your private Machu Picchu tour continues with a luxury train ride back to the Sacred Valley, where you will head to Cusco, the city of the “Children of the Sun.” Along the way, stop at Wayra, a traditional Peruvian restaurant in Urubamba, for an alfresco meal and a Paso horse show. Before reaching Cusco, visit the Chinchero Weaving Center to meet the Callanaupa family and learn about Peruvian weaving traditions.

In Cusco, you can choose between three luxury hotels: Palacio Nazarenas, a former palace and convent dating back to the 16th century; Monasterio Hotel, a monastery that was originally built in 1592 by descendants of the Spanish Conquistadores; or La Casona, a 16th-century manor house restored as an 11-suite luxury hotel.

The following day, enjoy breakfast with a Peruvian scholar as he explains the rich history of the Incas, and later visit the famed Cusco Central Market. Afterward, depart on a private guided tour of the main attractions of Cusco, including the Plaza de Armas, the Cathedral, the Company of Jesus Church, La Merced Church, and the Museum of Religious Art located in the Archbishop’s palace. You’ll also be treated to a private music demonstration in the beautiful chapel of the Monasterio Hotel. Learn about the many different string, wind, and percussion instruments from various Peruvian civilizations dating back to pre-Incan times. In the evening, enjoy Cusco’s dynamic nightlife – the city is home to a choice of excellent restaurants and bars.

The final day of your luxury Machu Picchu tour begins with a journey off the beaten track to the outskirts of Cusco to explore the Baroque churches that form part of Peru’s rich and diverse culture. You will first visit the tranquil village of Huaro to see St. John the Baptist Church, and later St. Peter’s Apostle Church in Andahuaylillas, famed for its impressive architecture and gold-leaf design.

On your way back to Cusco, stop in the town of Pinimpampa, the largest producer of Cusco’s famous handmade tiles. These same tiles have lined the roofs of Cusco’s houses for hundreds of years. Enjoy lunch in Cusco and later depart for the airport for your international flight back home via Lima. With only a few hours left of your private Peru tour, relax with a day-check at the airport hotel next door before your late evening flight.

Go north to the elegant Trujillo, on Peru’s northern coast, and find Chan Chan, the largest adobe city in the world–The Best of Peru Luxury Tour Package.

Probably you will see that most of the tour operators mention it on their websites that are local tour companies, however, if you research a little deeper you will find out that’s not true, they might be although half of the operation is done from here and another half abroad, they even have NorthAmerican phone number or European phone numbers, which is a clue to find out, we are not against the foreigner companies or half foreign companies, what we are against is that they lie.

Discover One of the New Seven Wonders of the World

There’s a reason that Machu Picchu is high on every round up of bucket list destinations. Visiting the Lost City is like stepping into another world. The awe-inspiring UNESCO World Heritage Site is perched on a mountain ridge some 2,400m above sea level and commands jaw-dropping views over the surrounding landscapes.

The city itself is a testament to the skill and ambition of Incan civilisation with its incredibly well preserved structures telling the tale of lives lived in centuries gone by. Machu Picchu is one of the most archeologically important sites in  Peru  and perhaps the world.

Machu Picchu is situated to the north west of  Cusco  and can be reached in a number of different ways. Visitor numbers are limited to help ensure the preservation of the citadel, so with smart planning you’ll have an incredible, uncrowded experience.

For true luxury, travel by train from Cusco or the  Sacred Valley  on services like the  Vistadome and the Hiram Bingham . If you’re after a more active approach then hiking the Inca Trail will take you on an adventure through some of the most beautiful landscapes in the country before finally arriving at your destination.

As well as an in-depth private tour, we recommend that you take some time to explore the ruins by yourself – you could even climb Huayna Picchu for an alternative view. Your Jacada travel designer will help you decide on the best option for your trip and make sure that you have the Machu Picchu experience you’ve been dreaming of.
