About the trip

This five-night tour begins in Cusco, a city that once thrived as the capital of the Inca Empire and still holds its blend of ancient and colonial architecture. Here, a guided city tour introduces you to its churches, plazas and the nearby Inka Museum.

From Cusco, the journey dips into the Sacred Valley, where views of terraced hillsides and traditional villages unfold. Visits to community weaving co-ops and communal restaurants offer glimpses of daily Andean life. A train trip through towering mountainous scenery leads to Aguas Calientes, the gateway town to Machu Picchu. At the ancient Inca site, visitors follow designated circuits with a guide to walk among stone structures and terraces set against steep jungle-clad slopes.

With small groups led by a Chief Experience Officer and local guides, the tour balances shared experiences with moments to wander at your own pace. Simple hotels and included breakfasts punctuate days filled with history, craft and landscapes that have drawn travellers for generations.
