DAY 2 CUSCO/MACHU PICCHU/CUSCO B/L/- Breakfast at the hotel Transfer to Ollanta station to board the train to Machu Picchu. Upon arrival

to Aguas Calientes you will take a 25-minute motorcoach ride to "The Lost City of the Incas", which was discovered by American explorer Hiram Bingham in 1911. Located on the left bank of the Vilcanota river lies the wonderful old city of Machu Picchu, which in quechua means "Old Mountain". According to research, Machu Picchu would have been one of the vacation residences of Pachacutec, the first Inca emperor between 1438 and 1470. However, some of its finest buildings and the evident ceremonial purpose of the main access road to the village, prove that it was used as a religious shrine. Machu Picchu is considered both a masterpiece of architecture and engineering because of its unique architectural and landscaping features. Prominent constructions among its buildings are the Main Square, the Royal Quarters, the Temple of the Three Windows, the Circular Towers, the Sacred Sun Dial and the Burial Grounds, among others of singular architecture and importance. Your guide will narrate and explain all about this splendid citadel, which is a truly amazing experience. After the guided tour enjoy free time to stroll around the archaeological site. Lunch at Café Inkaterra in AguasCalientes.

In the afternoon, return by train to the Ollanta Station and upon arrival you will be transferred to the hotel in Cusco.
