Description:

Visit one of the New 7 Wonders of the World at the fascinating ancient Inca town of Machu Picchu. Perched on a misty mountaintop, this picturesque site is a mystical setting where history and legends abound—take it in from the panoramic windows of a glass-top train as you ride to the peak.

Begin your explorey as soon as you are picked up at your hotel and taken to the train station to board the Vistadome train—each car is fitted with large windows that let the scenery open up before you. Enjoy your ride and the stunning views as the train makes its way from Cusco though the mountains and the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Upon arriving in Aguas Calientes, continue your journey by bus to reach the citadel.

Explore the legendary ruins as you follow your local guide and learn the history along with some captivating stories about the Inca civilization. Marvel at the elaborate steps, the complex of temples and residences, and the breathtaking views from this one-time estate of an Incan Emperor. Take a break for lunch, and then enjoy some free time to explore the magic of Machu Picchu on your own.

The memorable journey concludes with a scenic ride back to Aguas Calientes and Cusco, and a last chance to take in the spectacular beauty that has breathed life and magic into this region for centuries.
