Included
Machu Picchu is a 15th-century Inca citadel located high in the Andes Mountains of Peru, near the city of Cusco. Perched at 7,970 feet above sea level, its stunning stone structures, terraced fields, and panoramic mountain views make it one of the most iconic archaeological sites in the world. Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Machu Picchu is a symbol of Incan ingenuity and a top destination for travelers seeking history, culture, and breathtaking landscapes.
Included
The Ollantaytambo archaeological site is a well-preserved Inca fortress and ceremonial center located in the Sacred Valley of Peru. The site served as a royal estate, religious complex, and key stronghold during the Spanish conquest. Nestled among dramatic mountain scenery, Ollantaytambo also marks the starting point of the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, offering visitors a fascinating glimpse into the engineering and spiritual legacy of the Inca civilization.
Optional
Rainbow Mountain is a breathtaking multi‑colored peak in the Andes, about 3 hours from Cusco. The half‑day hike leads to an elevation of around 5,200 m (17,060 ft), revealing vibrant red, yellow, green and blue layers created by ancient mineral deposits. The surreal, rainbow‑stoned landscape atop the Andean ridge makes this journey a must‑do for adventurers in Cusco.
