Machu Picchu package tours typically include transportation, such as train or bus tickets, to and from Machu Picchu. Accommodation is also usually included, with options ranging from budget-friendly hostels to luxury hotels. Guided tours of Machu Picchu and other attractions are also part of most packages. Some packages may also include outdoor activities, such as hiking or trekking, and visits to other historical and cultural sites. Meals may be included, depending on the specific tour package.
The most popular way to get to Machu Picchu is by train from Cusco or the nearby town of Ollantaytambo. There are several train companies that offer services to Machu Picchu, ranging from budget to luxury. The train ride offers stunning views of the Andean mountains and the Urubamba River. Another option is to trek to Machu Picchu, with the most popular route being the Inca Trail, which requires a permit and must be booked in advance. There are also alternative trekking routes, such as the Salkantay Trek or the Lares Trek, which offer different landscapes and experiences.
The best time of year to visit Machu Picchu is during the dry season, which runs from May to September. During this time, the weather is mild and dry, with clear skies and lower humidity. This is the peak tourist season, so it can be crowded and more expensive. The shoulder seasons of April and October can also be a good time to visit, as there are fewer crowds and lower prices. The rainy season, which runs from November to March, can be challenging due to wet and muddy conditions. However, it can also be a good time to visit if you want to see the lush green landscapes and fewer tourists.
Visitors to Machu Picchu should wear comfortable and breathable clothing, as well as sturdy and comfortable shoes for walking and hiking. The weather can be unpredictable, so it’s a good idea to bring layers and a waterproof jacket. Sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses are also recommended, as the sun can be strong at high altitude. It’s also important to bring insect repellent if you plan to visit during the rainy season.
The area around Machu Picchu offers many other attractions and activities. The Sacred Valley of the Incas, located between Cusco and Machu Picchu, is home to many other ancient ruins, such as the Ollantaytambo fortress and the Pisac ruins. The city of Cusco itself is a UNESCO World Heritage site, with many colonial buildings and Inca ruins to explore. Outdoor activities, such as ziplining, horseback riding, and mountain biking, are also popular in the area. For a more immersive experience, visitors can also participate in community-based tourism activities, such as visiting local villages and learning about traditional Andean culture.
What else to say about this beautiful, historic and amazing place. We hiked up the Wayna piccu to get an overlook on the maccu piccu and where lucky. It was absolutely breathtaking!
Our trip in May was my second to Cusco and the first one for my friend. I already had in mind to visit WaynaPicchu since I couldn’t do it in my first trip (my kids were too small for such a hike) and it was more than I expected. Maybe it was the anticipation, or maybe it was the hour hike it took to get there…
It was an awesome climb! And it was Not near as physically challenging as the four day Inca Trail. Looks intimidating but it was fairly safe for a 60+ year old (that is in good physical shape). It took my wife & I about 30 to 40 minutes to climb. It had steel cable handrails along the mountain side for many parts of the climb. You should be acclimated to the elevation prior to climbing. And train on hikes and/or stair master. Spectacular views. Worth the climb and price.
