Machu Picchu ruins (25 minutes). Guided visit of Machu Picchu.
Built by the Inca Pachacutec, comprising stone blocks fitted
with masterful precision that harmoniously blends into the
mountain landscape. There are many theories as to the origins
of Machu Picchu but three of the most popular ideas include
a temple to the sun, a fortress against the jungle inhabitants
or a sanctuary for the Incas. This fabulous city has houses,
temples, warehouses, a large central square, all connected
by narrow roads and steps, and is surrounded by terraces cut
into the mountain side which were used for agriculture. After
the tour, free time to enjoy this magical and spiritual wonder.
Return in the afternoon to Cuzco by train. Transfer to your
