Very early in the morning we will catch the bus up to the most famous Inca site in the country, Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu means ยจOld Mountainยจ in Quechua.

We will walk up and down the streets and passageways of this ancient Incan city. We can observe the neighborhoods, plazas, royal living quarters, agricultural terraces, fountains, and solar observatories. After a 3-hour guided tour, you will have free time to explore on your own.
