We continue toward Wiñaywayna, enjoying stunning views of the Urubamba River along the way and the opportunity to observe various species of orchids. We’ll visit the Wiñaywayna archaeological site, followed by lunch. In the afternoon, we’ll continue our hike toward Machu Picchu, catching a distant view of the citadel from the Sun Gate (Inti Punku) during a splendid sunset. We then proceed to Machu Picchu (2400 meters above sea level) for a guided tour of approximately 2 hours, followed by free time to explore at your own pace. In the late afternoon, we return to Cusco by train, concluding this extraordinary adventure. Finally, you’ll be transferred to your hotel for a restful night.
