Cusco & Machu Picchu 3-Day Tour

Start & end in Cusco 3 days Up to 18

About this trip

Three days in and around Cusco, built around the two big draws: the city's Inca sites and Machu Picchu itself.

You start in Cusco, taking in major Inca constructions like Sacsayhuaman and the Temple of the Sun (Qoricancha), with a guide on hand to explain what you're looking at. From there you head to Machu Picchu, the trip's main event.

It's an easy, fully guided setup, well suited to families or anyone who wants the highlights covered without organising the logistics themselves.

What you'll do

  • Explore Sacsayhuaman's megalithic Inca walls
  • Visit the Temple of the Sun (Qoricancha) in Cusco
  • See other Inca sites around Cusco city
  • Visit Machu Picchu with a guide
Good to know
  • Entrance tickets to Machu Picchu are via Circuit 2 where available; if not, you'll be offered Circuit 1 or 3 instead
  • A private guide is required at Machu Picchu and comes at an extra cost
  • Easy pace, guided throughout — suited to families and those new to the region
