After breakfast, reunite with your guide in the lobby of your hotel for a short walk to the bus station and the bus ride up to Machu Picchu Citadel. Scratching the surface of the heavens from its place atop the grandest of mountaintop pedestals, it is easy to lose yourself in the mystique and grandeur of this enigmatic citadel. Soak in the energy and atmosphere of one of the most significant archaeological sites on the planet while your guide helps you uncover the secrets behind key areas of interest such as the Sun Dial, the Guard House, the Sacred Plaza and the Temple of the Sun. After a few hours of guided exploration, board the bus back down to Aguas Calientes and take your Vistadome train back to Cusco (11,155 ft - 3,400 m.a.s.l.) where you will arrive at night.

Please allow approximately two to three hours for the guided exploration and eight hours for the entire experience | You must show your passport in order to be allowed to enter Machu Picchu Citadel.
