I am very happy that I booked this 2 day package to machu picchu with Terra Quechua Peru. He made everything so easy, we had a fantastic tour guide and he was very knowledgeable and passionate. There is a pre-briefing the day before the trip where you can review the schedule and ask the representatives a question.
The stops at the archeological sites were amazing and well explained and included short exploration times. Day 2 in Machu Picchu was fabulous.

Just finished our visit to Peru and Machu Picchu. We had a wonderful trip. We booked the whole thing through Uncover Latin America and Chris and the team took care of everything from the pick up from the airport, our hotels, transfers, tours and restaurant reservations. Machu Picchu was far greater and more spectacular than what we were expecting. Our guide Diego was great and he gave us some wonderful info and insights into the history of his ancestors. Enjoyed a superb lunch at the Sanctuary Lodge after our tour of Machu Picchu and really enjoyed the scenic journey aboard the Vistadome Train back to Cusco afterwards. We stayed at some wonderful hotels our favorite being the Inkaterra El Mapi in Aguas Calientes.

Beyond our expectations with Terra Quechua Peru in the Sacred Valley + Machupicchu (2 days) was excellent. Very respectfully personal and knowledgeable. They make sure we have everything we need before, during and after the tour.
Absolutely perfect! Cesar the guide made sure we were well informed about all the times and details and made our trip to Machu Picchu and Cusco extremely memorable. All details of transportation were taken care of, so we didn't have to do anything more than introduce ourselves. We learned a lot about the Sacred Valley and the Ollantaytambo ruins. We learned a lot about the Inca culture and the history of the Andean cross. We stayed in a beautiful hotel that had been arranged for us in Aguas Calientes before heading to Machu Picchu. We had a great tour of Machu Picchu.

If you plan to visit Machu Picchu, you must use Terra Quechua Peru. Our guide and driver Maicol and Roland were absolutely amazing. The tour through the sacred valley and into the Andes was amazing. our guide was incredibly knowledgeable about all the history of the archeological sites we visited, a spectacular experience. . without a doubt one of the great wonders of this world that you should not miss.
The Terra Quechua team will make your experience unforgettable. Highly recommended.|

Amazing Machu Picchu..Do not miss a train to get to Mahu Picchu, you can buy it online or at tourist center. Once you get there, you can buy bus ticket to go up.

We booked tickets online to machu pichu and Huayna Picchu as soon as they became available. Its a ticketed entry we booked 2 pm -4 pm where we could enter anytime between those slots. We got to Aguas caliente by train and stayed over night. First thing in the morning we took the bus to machu pichu. We had booked the bus ticket online as well. You don't need any print outs just your passport for id. We also booked an amazing guide Sergio. He was a fantastic guy! He spent all day with us on both hikes to site and the mountain. Its really important to get a guide as they know the history, best photo spots and they are the best motivators. The bus ride was about 30 min, we entered with our tickets and passport. We walked through the site and entered Huayna Picchu. It was 2 hrs to go up and come down. Then we had lunch at the only restaurant onsite which is pricey and a buffet. We then did machu pichu upper lot. High Altitude causes breathlessness. Walk constant and slow and take deep breathes. There is only one restroom at entry for 2 soles for cash. Our guide was amazing he got us an essence to help us breathe, and coco leaves. It helped tremendously. Pack water, snacks, hat, sunscren, bug spray. The view from the top was incredible where you can see the entire site, learn the history and intelligence of the inca. You walk their path, see llamas. Its a wonderful experience. Plan your whole day at the site. You will have a very satisfying and exhausting day!

Two spectacular days with Terra Quechua Peru. This company knows how to treat tourists well. I felt like I was being guided by friends, not just someone who was doing a job. From my first communication with Raquel, who made sure that all the arrangements were perfect.
My tour guide (Armando) was a great guide, I was very satisfied with the places we went to and the knowledge he shared with me, everything went smoothly on my trip, surely Peru is one of my best destinations I have been to so far now. , the Incas were great with what I saw on the tour, their engineering and understanding of the world. A long time ago it was really exceptional..
I would recommend this company (Terra Quechua) if you plan to visit Peru, it is surely a once in a lifetime experience that you will never forget.

the 2 day trek to Machu Picchu with Terra Quechua Peru was our favourite, the staff are very knowledgeable and their English was excellent; The education and background of our guides were fantastic. They treated us very well.
The sacred valley was beautiful, just walking through it is a spiritual experience in itself. Just learning the history was great too. Machu Picchu was impressive. You see it in photos. But pictures can never do it justice. Another wonderful thing about the 2 day tour was the train ride. The views were spectacular. I especially enjoyed Aguascalientes, a small but fun town. In fact, we wanted to stay longer there.
There are also additional things that we did that I also enjoyed. . . like the animal sanctuary. That was unexpected and a great experience as we were able to feed the alpacas.

I've been to nearly every continent, to many mountain ranges, cathedrals, and other holy places. Machu Picchu was among the very most spiritual places I have ever visited. Whether it was nearness to divinity or nature or mother earth (pachamama) or all of the above, it deserves the highest of recommendations.

El tren va de la hidroeléctrica hasta aguas calientes 40 minutos , lo podes hacer caminando en dos horas. Costo 60 dólares. Cuando compras entrada a machu pichu hay opción de compra con bus, también se puede hacer caminando( es duro) recordaba con la altura vas más despacio
Podes contratar guía o hacer todas la ruinas arqueológicas solo
Pero siempre aprendes más Con guía , hay un montón. Se regatea precio 😜

Hi - I’ve read numerous articles about maximum backpack sizes which are either listed as dimensions or volume. Mine is 10 litres, half the maximum size, but exceeds the 40cm maximum height.
Which takes priority, volume or dimensions?
Thanks

They aren't checking that closely. However, the bus up there is small and some of the areas are narrow. Ensure your equipment is not going to encroach on other people or damage the site if it's too big.

Ciao,
È vero che per poter accedere a MP è obbligatoria la guida turistica? Anche se il mio biglietto comprende la montagna Huayna Picchu?
Sul regolamento c'è scritto RACCOMANDATA, non obbligatoria...

Hola, queria preguntar si nos conviene ir 2 dias a Machu Pichu, y hacer 1 dia Montana y el otro dia Waynapichu. y si con estas 2 entradas, podemos ver toda la ciudadela o hay que tambien sacar la entrada de Llanta de Machupichu. o si 1 dia es suficiente. gracias

Para lo que quiere hacer le conviene 2 días, alojar en aguas calientes que es lo mismo que Machu Picchu pueblo. Para Waynapichu sugiero evalúe bien su estado físico y de los demás, ya que es riesgoso.
La Ciudadela Machu Pichu se puede ver y visitar muy bien, un día basta.
Si quiere hacer la caminata a la cumbre, son 3 días desde la Termoeléctrica.
La mejor época es de Marzo a Octubre, no hay lluvia y no se nubla, si va ahora corre el riesgo de que esté nublado y no podrá tomar la foto típica desde la cumbre. Saludos

Levei R$1.000 em moeda local, comprado aqui no Brasil, para 5 dias. Só para gastos pequenos, pequenas refeições e compra de artesanato. No final ainda sobrou e torrei em bugigangas no aeroporto. Passeios e hotéis já comprados. Restaurantes mais caros no cartão.

Alguém comprou recentemente ingressos para o parque de Machu picchu no site oficial? Saberiam me orientar qual a melhor opção de ingresso?
Me parece que mudaram recentemente os nomes dos ingressos, pois não encontro maiores informações na internet. Obrigada!

Tentei comprar em Setembro do ano passado. Era impossível. Com a pandemia diminuíram o número de visitantes do parque. Todos os ingressos estavam nas mãos de agências de turismo. Só consegui com agência. De vez em quando tem ingresso para a parte da tarde, mas aí vc obrigatoriamente tem que pernoitar em Águas Calientes...
Hola. Q tal? Que tal es octubre para ir a Machu Picchu? Consulto respecto al clima. También, si es que saben si con las dos dosis de AstraZeneca puedo entrar al país desde Argentina SIN QUE se me haga hacer cuarentena.

Si el vuelo de Argentina a Peru es directo no hay que hacer cuarentena, solo hay que llevar la prueba PCR negativa con máximo 72 horas o antígeno negativo con máximo 24 horas . Y según me dijeron los guías en octubre llueve mucho de septiembre a marzo hay mucha lluvia

I have a 3 year old and 4 year old- what's the best way to enjoy Macchu Picchu? Is there a train or bus that takes you there so the kids don't have to hike as much?
