Decked out with your Machu Picchu tickets but nowhere to explore? Join our day trip from Cusco for a guided visit with transport to the iconic Incan archaeological site!

Machu Picchu Day Trip

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Cusco to head to the train station for the journey to Machu Picchu. Enjoy a scenic railway ride through beautiful landscapes to Aguas Calientes, followed by a short 30-minute bus ride to reach the Lost City of the Incas.

Upon arrival, we will begin our guided visit of Machu Picchu, exploring various significant landmarks and learning about Inca culture. After the tour, you'll have free time in Aguas Calientes for lunch, depending on the train schedule, allowing for 2-5 hours of free time. We will return to Cusco and drop you off at your hotel, with the total duration being approximately 14 to 18 hours.

Types of Train

The excursion employs panoramic trains with large windows and glass roofs. You can choose between economy class (Expedition or Voyager) and first class (Vistadome or The 360º train).

Departure Stations and Transfers

Trains can depart from Poroy station (30 minutes from Cusco) or Ollantaytambo station (1.5 hours from Cusco), depending on availability. Note that during the rainy season (December to March), we will travel by bus to Ollantaytambo due to Poroy station closure.

Upon booking confirmation, we'll email you the pickup time, station, and timetable, which will depend on your Machu Picchu entrance ticket. The transfer duration varies by station: about 4 hours from Poroy and 1.5 hours from Ollantaytambo.

Pickup Info

Pickup occurs between 4 am and 6 am from hotels in the Cusco historic center. For accommodations outside the center, we will meet at the Cathedral's door in Plaza de Armas. Confirmation of pickup time will occur prior to the tour.
