After our hotel pick up we will go to Km. 104 of the railroad, where we will climb out and start the so-called Express Inca Trail, a light trek to explore the beautiful Wiñaywayna complex. After a box lunch, we will continue to Machu Picchu, entering through the Intipunku or the Sun Gate. We will spend the night in one of the hotels in Aguas Calientes or Machu Picchu.

Early in the morning our guide will take us to the Lost City of the Incas for a special visit. This archaeological monument will surround us with its energy and astonish us with its terraces, ceremonial shrines, steps and urban areas. We will have free time to explore Machu Picchu on our own. At the arranged time, we will return to Cusco by train and will be transferred to the hotel.
