Adventure Tour Package Itinerary Package PC034 : Inca Trail Classic to Machupicchu 05 days / 04 night DAY 1 : CUSCO / WIÑAYHUAYNA / AGUAS CALIENTES We pick you up from your hotel between 05:45 and 6:15 and take you to the train station for the three and a half hour train journey to the begining of the Inca trail hike at km 104. We cross the bridge over the Urubamba River to the checkpoint, where the trail heads off to the right towards the ruins of Chachabamba. These ruins, discovered in 1940, are located on the old Inca road along the southern bank of the Urubamba River. The style of the buildings and stonework suggests that this was an important religious site, as well as having a secondary function as a gatehouse guarding this entrance to Machu Picchu. On the way we will pass trough an small stream. The path then turns west and continues uphill leaving the forest. After about 2 hours hiking through the mountainside we'll reach a beautiful waterfall, and soon we arrive at the bottom of the superb ruins of Wiñay Wayna, where we will have our lunch (optional lunch box) We will leave Wiñay Wayna after lunch to get to Machu Picchu before sunset. The trail follows the mountainside and drops into the cloud forest before coming to an almost vertical flight of 50 steps leading up to the final pass called Intipunku (Sun Gate). Suddenly the whole of Machu Picchu is spread out before you in all its glory. Then we will hike down to the ruins. You'll have some free time to enjoy the sunset and take photos of Machu Picchu from the classic viewpoint. Later we will take the bus down to the town of Aguas Calientes where we will spend the night. DAY 2 : MACHUPICCHU / CUSCO We will take the first bus up to Machupicchu to enjoy the sunrise. The guide will take you on a guided tour of all the major sectors of the ruins, which takes about 2 hours. After the tour you will have free time to explore Machupicchu by yourself. Before taking the train back to Cusco, you can have lunch just outside the ruins or take a bus down to Aguas Calientes town, where there are plenty of restaurants. The guide will tell you what time you should meet at the train station to take the train back to Cusco. End of services. Prices per person (in American dollars):
