Travel Guide to Cusco, the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu by train

Tours Cusco:

Known as the historical capital of the Inca Empire, Cusco is the starting point for most adventures in the Andes. The city perfectly blends Inca architecture with Spanish colonial influences. Here, cobblestone streets lead you to the imposing Plaza de Armas, the Cathedral, and the Qorikancha Temple. It is a vibrant place to acclimate to the altitude and immerse yourself in history before exploring the surrounding wonders.


Tours Sacred Valley of the Incas:

Located along the Urubamba River, the Sacred Valley was the agricultural heartland of the Inca Empire. It is famous for its fertile landscapes, picturesque villages, and important archaeological sites. Here you can visit the circular agricultural terraces of Moray, the salt mines of Maras, and the fortress ruins of Pisac and Ollantaytambo. It is a mandatory stop to understand Inca life and engineering before reaching Machu Picchu.


Tours Ollantaytambo

Ollantaytambo is a living Inca town and a spectacular archaeological site. It is famous for its impressive fortress and agricultural terraces that climb a steep hillside. More than a historical place, it is an important connection point for travelers taking the train to Aguas Calientes, being the last stop before the great adventure.


Tours to Aguas Calientes:

Also known as Machu Picchu Pueblo, Aguas Calientes is the bustling town that serves as the gateway to the Machu Picchu citadel. Located at the foot of the mountains, the town gets its name from its famous hot springs. It is a place full of hotels, restaurants, and craft markets, where travelers spend the night or prepare for their morning visit to the citadel.


Tours to Machu Picchu:

The crown jewel, Machu Picchu, is a 15th-century Inca citadel and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Perched on a mountain ridge, the citadel is famous for its intricate stone structures, agricultural terraces, and temples. Its purpose remains a mystery to historians. Visiting it is a journey through time and an unforgettable experience that combines fascinating history with a dreamy landscape.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQs: Tours Machu Piccho by train – Quick Answers to Your Machu Picchu Tour Questions

1. How far in advance should I book my tours Machu piccho?

Honestly, you’ll want to book your tour at least 2 to 3 months in advance. We’re not just saying that—the train tickets and entrance passes to Machu Picchu are limited and they sell out super fast, especially during the high season!

2. What’s the best time of year to visit Machupicchu?

The dry season, from May to October, is a favorite for a reason. You’ll get plenty of sunshine and minimal rain, which is perfect for photos! Just know that it’s also the most crowded time.

On the flip side, the rainy season (November to April) has fewer tourists, but you should be prepared for some unpredictable weather.

3. What’s the physical fitness level for this tours Machupicchu?

The great thing about this tour is that it’s a breeze! Since you’re traveling by train, there’s no strenuous hiking involved. You’ll only be walking within the citadel itself, so it’s suitable for all ages and fitness levels.

4. Should I worry about altitude sickness?

It’s smart to be prepared! Cusco is at a high altitude, so we highly recommend arriving at least a day or two before your tour.

Just take it easy, drink plenty of water (and maybe some coca tea!), and avoid heavy meals at first to acclimate.

5. What should I pack for the tours Machupicchu?

Think of it this way: you’re going to need your original passport (don’t forget this—it’s essential!), comfortable clothes you can layer, a hat, sunscreen, bug spray, and a rain jacket.

A reusable water bottle and your camera are a must-have, too!

6. What does this full-day tour include?

Basically, we’ve got you covered on all the essentials! Your tour includes hotel pickup, all your tickets for the train and buses to Machu Picchu, your entrance fee, and a professional guide to show you around. Just remember that things like meals and personal expenses aren’t included.

7. Do I need my passport for the tours to Machupicchu?

Yes, this one is a big deal! You’ll need your original, valid passport for both the train journey and to enter Machu Picchu. Seriously, they won’t let you in without it, so make sure you have it with you.

    **Important points:

    WHAT REQUIREMENTS DO YOU NEED TO OPTAIN THE STUDENT DISCOUNT?

    THE ISIC CARD IS NOT VALID BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT FOUND FAKE COPIES… AND IT IS ALSO NOT VALID, CERTIFICATIONS, DOCUMENTS, NOTE FROM UNIVERSITY STUDENTS, INTERNSHIPS, ETC.

     

    If you are a student, the discount is 20 dollars but you must have a card from your university with the current date (2026 or 2027) not 3 or 4 years later (not 2028 or 2029). Yourimage.
    The name of your university.
    We need the copy of your original passport and your student card to show it to the government and he will say if it is valid or not because the discount is for the entrance of the Machupicchu and not for our trek.

    IMPORTANT NOTE:

    you have to take your original plastic (PVC) student card, not cardboard or paper for your salkantay trek because if you don’t have it your ticket will not be valid and you will have to buy another ticket it is a problem because if there are no spaces you will not visit Machupicchu (you must be 25 years old or younger)…
    If you do not have this original card or this information on your student card that the government requires, I recommend you buy a normal adult ticket to avoid problems because we will not be responsible for this…
    If you have this information and the requirements as a student, send them immediately (it is not valid if you send them after confirming your reservation) to present them to the government and the government approves them whether you are a student or not…

Goede eten, gezellidheid, en support veel van de sherpas. Alcides is een topertje, goede storyteller en better persoon. We gaan nooit vergeten de mooie aanbieding en verbinding met de Pachamama die op de Salkantay pass hebben gedaan. Dank je wel voor alles Okidoki!!! Tot de volgende reis!! Increíble experiencia hemos tenido con Alcides como guía y Okidoki como anfitrión. To fue mejor de lo esperado. Alcides es un magnífico guía, siempre preocupándose por nosotros, increíble cuentacuentos mejor persona y después de las 1000 fotos que nos tomo mejor fotógrafo. Repetiremos seguro con ellos en un par de años cuando vayamos a conocer las maravillas del Perú que aún no tuvimos la ocasión de conocer.

    My partner and I booked the 3N/4D Salkantay Trek with Okiodoki and let me tell you – we had the best time. First of all: The Staff was amazing, very kind and super helpful. Alvaro (together with his wife Rosmary owners of Okidoki) replied within minutes to all our questions via whatsapp. A few days before the trek he welcomed us in his office, explained the tour in details and helped me getting over my fear, that the trek might be to hard for me (needless to say: all went perfectly fine and it wasn‘t as hard as I thought). They provided me with hiking poles (30 PEN for the 4 days) and in addition they lent me a daily backpack for free. All the material (duffle bag, sleeping bag, daily backpack) was in perfect condition and the sleeping bag really kept us warm during the cold night at the foot of the Salkantay. Our guide, Guilleromo, was probably the main reason why we had such good time. He timed the whole trip very well without being too pushy. That means, that everything went as it should and we always met our daily goal according to the timetable. Guilleromo is very kind and helpful. He made sure to keep us safe on the trip and inriched us with his profond knowlege of plants, the mountains, the indigenous community and the incas. Overall you could feel his passion for the nature, the mountains and the local cultur. We couln’d have wished for a better guide. Thank you so much Guilleromo! Our chef, Roger, prepared delicous meals, which were always right on time. The table was brautifully set and our special needs (vegetarisn or allergies) were always met. Also, the breakfast was a lot richer than I exprected and every day we got something new to try. Simon, the owner of the three mules, also was very sweet and kind and always a helping hand to Roger and Guilleromo. He made sure that our duffle bags arrived on time and we‘re still impressed how fast he managed to get from one campsite to the other! Second: compared to other tour companies, the groups at Okidoki are usually small. That allows you to get to know the participants in a more profond way. We happend to be a group of six people and the dynamic within the group was great. Third: the price-performance ratio is unbeatable. Of cours: don’t expect your trip to be luxurious. But keep in mind that you are doing a multiple day trip in the mountains and what they manage to offer, is already impressive. Particularly the first accomondation is very authentic and allows you to sleep under a sky full of stars with view on the salkantay. All accomondations are clean and you‘ll have a good sleep. If it‘s in your budget we would recommend to opt for the train to get back to cusco (costs arround 100 USD more). It only takes 4 hours (instead of 7h by van) and you won‘t have to walk additional 10km to the busstation after your visit to the Machu Picchu on your last day. After two hours train you‘ll get picked up by a van/bus to complete your journey back to Cusco. Overall we would recommend to book a trip with Okidoki for all reasons above and of course the amazing experience of the Salkantay!

    Our experience with OkiDoki was excellent - Alvaro's organization and booking skills were incredible and we even got to do 2 circuits within Machu Picchu on the 2D/1N Inca Trail rather than just one. He even made it so that it was just us on the tour which made it extra special! Our guide, Alcides, was truly exceptional and made the experience 10x better and personalised. I would definitely try to request him if you are doing the Inca Trail with OkiDoki. The lunch we were provided was extremely comprehensive and included many many snacks, so I would not purchase any snacks of your own before going, but definitely bring water! The hotel we were booked in Aguas Calientes + the included dinner was so-so, but for the price you cannot really complain! The only downside we had was that Alvaro was sometimes not great at communicating and his emails sometimes made it seem as though he did not full understand what you were saying. You are also meant to pay the remaining cost (bar the deposit) in-person in cash and we organized this, but Alvaro then began hassling us and saying we had not paid in time despite having a discussion with him about when we were going to pay! This made one of our days in Cusco very stressful and we were rushing our day to get back in time to pay Alvaro and once we did he was not even there and made us wait an extra 2h to turn up and accept the payment. Overall, despite this slightly negative experience, I would still recommend OkiDoki to visit Machu Picchu because of their organization, knowledge of the laws and ticket booking systems, and their database of guides (go Alcides!!!!). Just make sure to complete the payment ASAP when you get to Cusco to avoid issues!

    Je ne peux que recommander, parti pour un treck de 5j pour Choquequirao. Un très bon guide, excellent cuisinier enfin bref, une équipe au top. La qualité de l'équipement fourni était très agréable aussi. Nous avons pu adapter le rythme à notre envie et nous avons visité le site avant tout le monde nous permettant d'être seuls! C'était magique

    Super expérience avec OkiDoki!! Mention spéciale à Guillermo, un guide en or, sympa, drôle et chaleureux. Merci aussi aux chefs qui nous ont régalés pendant ces quatre jours de trek, tout était au top, je ne peux que recommander OkiDoki (petit bonus : les skylodges pour voir les étoiles filantes depuis son lit ;) ! )
