We will hike for approximately 3.5 to 4 hours until we reach the impressive archaeological site of Wiñay Wayna, where we will enjoy a break and lunch surrounded by beautiful natural landscapes, including lush vegetation and breathtaking views of the valley.
After lunch, we will continue hiking for approximately two more hours until we reach Inti Punku (Sun Gate), where you will enjoy a stunning panoramic view of Machu Picchu.
From there, we will descend to the iconic citadel of Machu Picchu, entering through the upper section to take the classic panoramic photos (Circuit 1b).
After the visit, we will take the bus back to Aguas Calientes, where you will wait to board the train back to Ollantaytambo. Upon arrival at Ollantaytambo Station, transportation will take you back to Cusco.
