Aguas Calientes machupicchu - Cusco

Machu Picchu
We will wake up extremely early, at 4:00 am, in order to start trekking up the mountain to Machu Pichu in time to catch the sunrise at the top. It will take approximately an hour and 45 minutes to reach the top. When we first arrive, our guide will take us on a 2 hour tour around the ruins, enlightening us about the ancient city.That was once alive, and enriching us with the Inka's history. There is much information that our guide can teach us, about all that we know of the site so far.
After the guided portion of the tour, you will have some free time to explore the ruins on your own. If you want to climb Huayna Pichu, it is recommended to book in advance, preferably three months beforehand, with an additional cost of $ 15.there is a limited allowance of 400 persons per day to climb Huayna Picchu, so prebook so you dont miss out . the round trip walking to the peak of Huaynapicchu is about an hour and a half. it is defiantly worth it for the stunning views from the top! it should be noted, that the portion at the top with the stairs, (the “stairs part”, as it’s lovingly referred to) is moderately hazardous especially if the weather has been wet.
You will need to return back to Aguas Calientes to catch the return train to Cusco or Ollantaytambo. There is also the option of staying an extra night in Aguas Calientes, which would allow you more to explore the markets, or go back and spend more time in Machu Pichu.
