The experience

Live your dream adventure to Machu Picchu, with return transport from Cusco

If you're in Cusco and need to book your Machu Picchu tour, you've come to the right place.

This Machu Picchu tour from Cusco secures your return transport and entrance ticket, and includes an expert guide to make sure you leave with a head full of new knowledge.

Before the birds are even singing, you'll be on the bus from your hotel to Ollantaytambo. From here, you'll take the jaw-dropping scenic train along the Urubamba River to Aguas Calientes at the heart of the Andes. The Vistadome train offers greater comfort than the Expedition train, as well as a live dance show!

A short bus ride later, and you'll be ready to enter Machu Picchu with your English and Spanish-speaking guide. Discover Inca culture and architecture, learn about the origins of the citadel, and discuss why it was hastily abandoned in the 16th century.

You'll have a couple of hours to explore on your own after the tour, before heading back to Cusco with your wanderlust cravings truly satisfied!
