Cusco: Machu Picchu 2-Day Inca Trail with Panoramic Train - Early Pickup in Cusco (and Why You’ll Thank It Later)

1.Cusco: Machu Picchu 2-Day Inca Trail with Panoramic Train

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 260 reviews · 2 days · from $582Our pick

Hike the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu for sunrise and sunset, sleep in Aguas Calientes, then ride the Vistadome panoramic train back.

“Our guides were literally the best! We couldn’t have asked for better! The only thing we would recommend to improve on. My husband and I train tickets were not seats next to eachother and the whole group was on different trains on the ride back. The bag drop off and transportation back to our hotels process could improve. There was a lot of waiting around and extra steps that seems could be done more streamlined and organized especially when participants are tired and ready to go back to their hotels. Thank you!!”

“Fantastic trip! All of the staff were incredible. The food was delicious and better than the restaurant food we had in aquas calientes. Cesar was a brilliant guide and looked after us really well. Some highlights. Salkantay mountain standing over our campsite first night. The night sky first night. The very distant view of macchu picchu on the fourth night. Some tips - you need cash in Peru. Be prepared. Altitude was a problem on the first day of the trip and medication (acetazolamide) helped those who had it.”

I will recommend this trip to anyone who wants to visit the ruins on a more personal level.”

One-day Machu Picchu trip from Cusco with Inca Rail by train, round-trip transfers, and guided time in the citadel, from 4:30 am.

“Poor communications from this vendor. The day before, I had no tickets or meaning place or time. I was left hanging all day with no response to calls or emails. When arriving at aqua calientes… no one to meet me. Finally get a cal and had to hunt for them thru the maze surrounding the station. Requested help from Viator which was useless. They finally issued a worthless voucher for a Machu Picchu trip when you need 4 actual tickets and drivers need to be arranged.”

10.Excursion to MachuPicchu with Train Vistadome Full Day

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 31 reviews · 10 hours · from $403

Full-day Machu Picchu from Cusco: early pickup, small group, Aguas Calientes lunch time, guided visit, and Vistadome train views.

“The train journey was great, although expect delays as it’s a single track line and there are delays whilst waiting for other trains from the other direction to pass. Last moan about the train is that the return journey was terminated halfway back to Cusco with the final leg carried out by replacement buses. That’s no criticism of the tour operator, just PeruRail. A plus though was that the tour operator laid on a taxi when we got back to Cusco to take us the short distance to our hotel. Top marks there. We were guided around Machu Picchu by Greg who was tremendous. He seemed to know everything about…”

4-day Lares trek from Cusco with hot springs, Condor Pass, Maras salt mines, Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu, and Vistadome train.

“Un excellent trek a faire en famille ou entre amis, la difficulté est abordable. Cependant il faut noté que le manque d’oxygène et le froid la nuit diminuent nos capacités physiques. Il fait déjà être sportif ou à minima en bonne condition physique. Les paysages sont époustouflants et le guide suit notre rythme (vous pouvez faire autant de pauses que nécessaire) ! Nos chefs cuisiniers étaient excellent, je recommande vivement !!”

“It was an amazing experience. The landscape you see during this trip is as beautiful as different. Getting up in the middle of the mountains and hiking down into the jungle was amazing. The guide Josè had an answer to every question and took really great care at the whole group. Evangelino, the second guide, took also great care and especially if somebody needed some extra time or had an other belonging he always supported us immediately. The food from our own chef Zenobio was amazing. Three times a fresh cooked local food with plenty of options was great and gives us the energy we needed during the day. In…”
