Pisa Inca Ruins - It’s not hard to succumb to the charms of sunny Pisac, a bustling colonial village at the base of a spectacular Inca fortress perched on a mountain spur.   Its pull is universal and recent years have seen an influx of ex-pats and new age followers in search of an Andean Shangri-la.  Located just 33km northeast of Cuzco by a paved road, it’s the most convenient starting point to the Sacred Valley.

Ollantaytambo - After lunch (included), we proceed onto Ollantaytambo an attractive little town located at the western end of the Sacred Valley.  The town has been built on top of original Inca foundations and is the best surviving example of Inca town planning.

The town is located at the foot of some spectacular Inca ruins which protected the strategic entrance to the lower Urubamba Valley.  The temple area is at the top of steep terracing which helped to provide excellent defences.

Private Machu Picchu Tour

Experience the Lost City of the Incas with a Private Expert Guide

Upon arrival at the Machu Picchu Train Station, your private guide will be waiting to welcome you. Together, you’ll take the short scenic bus journey up to the entrance of the legendary citadel. Please remember to bring your passport, as it is required for entry to Machu Picchu.

Once inside, your private guided tour reveals the majesty and mystery of this extraordinary Inca sanctuary. Hidden for centuries in the Andean cloud forest, Machu Picchu is the most celebrated archaeological site in South America — a masterpiece of engineering and spiritual design, set against one of the world’s most breathtaking backdrops.

Built around 1450 during the reigns of Pachacutec and Tupac Yupanqui, the citadel miraculously escaped Spanish conquest, preserving temples, terraces, and shrines that offer rare insight into Inca civilization. When the American historian Hiram Bingham rediscovered it in 1911, its perfection had endured beneath the jungle canopy.

Your guide will bring history to life as you explore the Temple of the Sun, the Sacred Plaza, and the intricate ceremonial baths. From the terraces, panoramic views stretch across deep green valleys and mist-shrouded peaks — a reminder of why this “Lost City” continues to captivate scholars, travelers, and dreamers alike.
