Every day of your trip, with where you'll spend the night.
Day 1
Your driver welcomes you in the arrivals hall and escorts you along the coast to your hotel in Miraflores. The rest of the day is yours: stroll the clifftop malecón, watch paragliders drift over the Pacific and enjoy a first taste of the cuisine that has made Lima one of the great food capitals of the world.
Day 2
In the morning, your guide leads you through Lima’s UNESCO-listed historic center: the Plaza Mayor, the Cathedral and the San Francisco Monastery, whose baroque cloisters and underground catacombs hold centuries of history. The afternoon is at leisure to explore Miraflores and bohemian Barranco or enjoy lunch at one of the acclaimed restaurants that have made Lima a world capital of gastronomy.
Day 3
Fly over the Andes to Cusco (approx. 3,400 m), the ancient capital of the Incas. Your driver takes you to your hotel, where the rest of the day is yours to rest and acclimatize. Take it easy, drink plenty of water and enjoy a first evening stroll to the Plaza de Armas as the city lights up.
Day 4
A VIP day in the Sacred Valley with your own guide and vehicle. Visit Moray, where the Incas carved circular terraces into the earth as a crop laboratory, and the Maras salt mines, thousands of white salt pans still worked by local families. After lunch in the valley, explore the Inca fortress of Ollantaytambo and stay overnight in the Sacred Valley.
Day 5
Board a panoramic train in Ollantaytambo and follow the Urubamba River as the landscape turns from Andean fields to cloud forest, with glass ceilings framing the snow-capped peaks. Arrive in Aguas Calientes, at the foot of Machu Picchu, and spend a relaxed afternoon in this mountain town.
Day 6
Take an early bus up to Machu Picchu and discover the Inca citadel with your guide: the Main Plaza, the Temple of the Sun and the Intihuatana stone, set between towering green peaks above the Urubamba River. After the tour, return to Aguas Calientes and board the panoramic train back to Cusco.
Day 7
Transfer to Cusco airport for your morning flight to Lima, where you connect with your international flight home. End of services.

You fly from Lima to Cusco (approx. 3,400 m) and keep the rest of that day free to rest. The Sacred Valley (approx. 2,900 m) and Machu Picchu (approx. 2,430 m) are lower than Cusco, which makes acclimatization easier. Drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol on arrival and consult your doctor before travel if you have a medical condition.
