“This company and the team of guides were terrific! So was the itinerary. The trip was everything they advertised, and delivered better than any company I have used. Communication was excellent both before and during—-no surprises. Our guides (Johny, Sebastian and another gentleman) went to great effort to be sure we enjoyed the trip! They were friendly and very helpful. For example, not only would they do like many, and take a photo if you asked, these guides would suggest good spots, and ask if you want one—often! They’d even offer to carry things for you if you felt tired!! And they NEVER rushed us! They made us feel their…”

“Am I glad I did it? Yes. The journey over is not so great! Almost 4 hours on a train with no wifi, no plug ins for phones. Smh all throughout the ride you heard the speakers of them being in business for 35+ years but no simple amenities? Ha don't get my started on the "food" they give you snacks. 4 hrs without an actual meal is rough, bring a sandwich! Once we got to Machu piccu it was so beautiful, I did find it weird that I had a whole guide to myself. Idk it felt like he was quizzing me at one point which was annoying. The…”

“What a beautiful 2 day tour. The first day was discovering the sacred valley starting with a visit to a llama farm feeding the llamas and seeing women weaving ponchos the traditional way. I must give a special thanks to our guide Gary Nelson who is such a generous tour guide and a great photographer. I learned so much from his knowledge about the Inca culture and his love for the work he's been doing for 15 years. The next day I had the privilege of having my own tour guide all to myself Paul. Another incredible human being. Being at Machu Pichu had been on my bucket list for…”

“Such a great, amazing and fun experience with this company to visit Macchu Pichu. Our guides, Mauro and Reuben were amazing. They both provided so much information about the history of Macchu Pichu as well as taught us the native language of the people of the region. Everything from the logistics and operations was superb. You literally just show up and they take care of all of the operations. You do have to go into their office in Cusco for a quick orientation and confirmation. Make sure to download and use WhatsApp to communicate with them as well!”

“The train ride up to Macho Picho was breath taking. Loved it! The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable and friendly, was well as a great photo taker. Macho Picho was impressive and interesting. The tour operator did an outstanding job changing tour itinerary because my tour was delayed a day due to Peru Airport shut down for a day. The tour operator also did a great job preparing the tour and explaining how it was to be executed. This tour was a great experience.”

Machu Picchu Full Day Tour from Cusco with Train & Entrance

15.Machu Picchu Full Day Tour from Cusco with Train & Entrance

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 508 reviews · 17 to 18 hours (approx.) · from $447

Machu Picchu full day tour from Cusco with train, guided entry, and Aguas Calientes time for breakfast and thermal baths. Small group.

“Our tour guide, Philipe, was wonderful. The climb to the top of Machu Picchu is steep and we were very slow. Philipe gracefully stopped at numerous spots to tell us about the plants and animals while giving us time to breathe. The only reason I’m giving the overall tour a four rather than a five is because the transportation was a bit confusing. We didn’t meet our guide until we arrived at Aguas Calientes, four hours after we departed the hotel. Navigating the train station and bus pickup locations in the dark, without help, made us a bit nervous. Apart from that, however, we loved the tour and would recommend…”
