Today, immerse yourself in the rich flavors and vibrant culture of Peru with a private hands-on gastronomy and city tour. Sample cups of organic Peruvian coffee, discover the superfoods that form the foundation of the traditional Peruvian diet, and explore the artistic and cosmopolitan neighborhoods of Barranco and Miraflores. 

After your food tour, you’ll be transferred to the airport for your flight to Cusco, the heart of the Andes and a city steeped in history and Inca culture. Upon arrival, a member of our team will warmly welcome you and escort you to your hotel.

The rest of the afternoon is yours to unwind and acclimate to the high altitude. Sip on a warm cup of coca tea and take it slow as your body adjusts to the elevation in this charming mountain city.

Today is the awe-inspiring day you’ve been waiting for – your journey to one of the New Seven Wonders of the World: Machu Picchu.

After an early breakfast at your hotel, you’ll be transferred to Ollantaytambo to board your scenic train to Aguas Calientes, also known as Machu Picchu Town. Sit back and enjoy the ride through lush valleys and mist-covered peaks.

Upon arrival, take a short shuttle ride to the entrance of the citadel. Your expert guide will lead you in discovering the history, myths, and legends that surround this ancient Incan masterpiece. Ascend to the stunning panoramic viewpoints, where the ruins are framed by dramatic green mountains.

After the tour, descend back to Aguas Calientes for a delicious lunch. Later in the afternoon, board the return train to Ollantaytambo. Upon arrival at the train station, your private driver will meet you and transfer you back to your hotel in Cusco, where you can relax and reflect on an unforgettable day.

Dive into the vibrant living history and culture of Cusco. Your private guided tour begins at the heart of the city, the bustling Plaza de Armas, surrounded by impressive colonial buildings. From there, we’ll move on to the sacred Qoricancha, once the most important temple in the Inca Empire, dedicated to Inti, the sun god. Although the Spanish conquest stripped the temple of its lavish gold, the remaining stone walls still stand as a testament to the precision and skill of Incan engineering.

Next, we’ll delve into the vibrant daily life of Cusco at the San Pedro Market. This lively market is the perfect place to experience local culture firsthand. Wander among stalls brimming with fresh produce, exotic fruits, and traditional goods. It’s a feast for the senses, filled with colors, aromas, and sounds.

We’ll then continue our adventure to the fortress of Sacsayhuamán. Strategically positioned on a hill overlooking Cusco, this fortress is renowned for its colossal limestone blocks, carefully carved and assembled without mortar, a stunning example of Incan architectural brilliance. From here, you can enjoy panoramic views of the city below and the rugged Andean landscapes that surround it.

At the scheduled time, you will be picked up and transferred to the airport for your onward journey. As you head home, take a moment to reflect on the unforgettable experiences and lasting memories made during your adventure through Peru. We look forward to welcoming you back someday!
