At 4:00 am we come pick you up at your hotel to start our travel through the Sacred Valley of the Incas. On the way you could enjoy the beautiful snowy peaks of the highest point on the way, Abra Málaga (4350 meters). We descend through the jungle to Santa Teresa in the province of the Convention, and have our breakfast.

At 9:00 am we officially start the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu from Lucmabamba to reach the archaeological site of Llactapata from where you could see for the first time the Machupicchu, just right in front of you. We then descend for one hour toward a beautiful waterfall. We have lunch in Hidroelectrica, and then continue heading to Machu Picchu Pueblo passing near the Mandor Waterfalls, also known for its botanical gardens offering beautiful and colorful flowers.

We have breakfast and then take the 6am bus up to Machu Picchu to enjoy the beautifull sunrise. After which we are given a walking tour of approximately 2 hours by your erudite tour guide, followed by an exploration of the mysterious city all by yourselves.

If you had previously bought your Waynapicchu ticket (additional cost of 15 dollars but only 200 persons allowed twice a day, at 7 am and 10 am, so it is highly recommended to book ahead) you can also climb the neighboring mountain (2720m/8890ft): it takes about 45 minutes to reach the top. But you might have to skip the tour and seriously reduce your own time on the site of Machu Picchu.

We take the Expedition train back to Ollantaytambo followed by a bus to Cusco. We are in Cusco at around 10:30 pm.

Meals: Breakfast.
