Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu Express: FAQ

What is included in this 2-day luxury tour?

It includes hotel pick-up and drop-off in Cusco, a private Sacred Valley tour with lunch, panoramic trains, one night in Aguas Calientes with breakfast, round-trip shuttle bus, entrance ticket and a private guided visit to Machu Picchu.

What luxury options are available on this 2-day tour?

Choose the Deluxe 5★ category for the finest hotels in Aguas Calientes, set among cloud forest gardens beside the river, or Superior 4★ for premium comfort. Guides and transfers are private, and we can upgrade you to the Hiram Bingham luxury train with fine dining and live music.

Can you include flights and hotels in Cusco?

Yes. We can book your round-trip flights Lima – Cusco – Lima, airport transfers and one or two nights in Cusco before the tour so you can acclimatize. Mention it in the request form and we will include everything in one quote.

How does this tour help with the altitude?

Aguas Calientes (approx. 2,040 m) and Machu Picchu (approx. 2,430 m) are lower than Cusco (approx. 3,400 m), so the tour itself is gentle on the body. We recommend spending at least one night in Cusco before the tour to acclimatize; drink plenty of water and consult your doctor before you travel if you have a medical condition.

What will I see in the Sacred Valley?

You visit Pisac, with its colorful artisan market and spectacular Inca terraces, and Ollantaytambo, a living Inca town with original streets and water channels below a massive temple fortress, with lunch in the valley.

How much does this 2-day luxury tour cost?

The price of this 2-day tour depends on the hotel category in Aguas Calientes (Essential 2★, Comfort 3★, Superior 4★ or Deluxe 5★) and the number of travelers. For a luxury overnight, choose Superior or Deluxe. The Rates tab shows the current price per person; flights and hotels in Cusco are quoted separately on request.
