Duration : 4 days/ 3 Nights Trip Code: MZZZ-EEN
Starting Point : Cusco (Perú) Finishing Point: Cusco (Perú)
Grade of Difficulty : 1/6Pickup at the airport in Cuzco and transfer to your hotel, Today we suggest taking it easy, just relaxing and exploring this ancient city at your own pace. Cuzco is located 3316 meters above sea level. This famous city is the main destination for travelers in South America.
This ancient city has several impressive titles such as the “Navel of the World”, “Historical Capital of Peru”, is one of UNESCO’s sacred World Heritage cities, and is deemed the “Archeological Capital of the Americas”. These titles were earned due to the fact that Cuzco has a unique combination of cobble-stoned streets, Inca walls bordering most down town streets, colonial houses with Inca stones bases, churches centuries old, plazas, and Quechua speaking descendants. This cosmopolitan city also has great night life where you can meet people from every corner of the world.
Free day to relax or to keep exploring this city. There are several optional excursions available or just arrange a nice massage at one of the local spas.
Travel by train to Machupicchu town. Visit Machu Picchu in a two hour guided tour of the most important temples and sectors of this great ruin. Then, later, explore and discover on your own the wonders of the Lost City of the Incas. This afternoon we will return to Cuzco by train and bus.
Machu Picchu was recently honored to become part of the New 7 Wonders of the World as well as, like many of our other destinations on this journey, is one of the top World Heritage cities on UNESCO’s prestigious list. Interestingly enough, it is not mentioned in any of the chronicles from Spanish colonialism. No one knows its function and even though it has been studied by scientists for decades, many unanswered questions remain. The town was forgotten for centuries and covered by rich vegetation until July 24th, 1911 when American historian Hiram Bingham was led by an 11 year old native boy to the site where he made the re-discovery of this phenomenal structure. It was all done on accident as Bingham was actually in search of the lost town of Vilcabamba
