Well worth it! Our driver was Frank and guide was Jimmy. We were picked up at 07:45 from our hotel and dropped back to town centre around 18:30. We got to see so many beautiful landscapes within the Sacred Valley of the Inca. Jimmy was awesome, friendly and helpful. I definitely would recommend this day tour. We bought our entry ticket (tourism pass as they call it) once we got on the tour. Worked out better for us we only wanted to do the Sacred Valley tour. Thanks for a great day guys!

Perfection. I have nothing to complain about. And it was truly the trip of a lifetime. I’ve wanted to visit Peru since I was 3 years old watching Jacque Cousteau (I’m 59 now) and it was every bit as magical, intriguing, awe inspiring, and beautiful as I had hoped.

Machu Picchu and The Amazon

Trip customizable

Best price guaranteed

This spectacular tour will introduce you to two of South America's greatest travel icons – the mysterious wonder of Machu Picchu and the fascinating Amazon rainforest. The sky-scraping citadel of Machu Picchu, also known as the Lost City of the Incas, was built in the peaks of the Andes around 1450. If its walls could talk, they would tell tales of Incan sacrifice, worship and royalty. The Amazon, meanwhile, comprises the most expansive rainforest in the world, home to the second-longest river on earth and the life-giving artery that pumps its way across South America. Much of this territory is untamed and some is even unchartered! On this tour you will have the opportunity to explore the famous Machu Picchu, enjoy spotting exotic animals and other wildlife in the rainforest, and create memories to last a lifetime!

"We did the 2D/1N trip to Machu Picchu. Our tour guides David and Ciprian are truly great people and made sure everyone was taken care of. Ciprian was carrying someone’s backpack to help them out, for the entire 8 mile hike. I got a stomach flu during the second morning and had to miss part of the 2nd day but David gave me a personal tour of Machu Picchu when I started feeling better. That’s when I found out how truly knowledgeable David was because I asked so many questions and David gave detailed and extremely educated responses. Because of this, I have a much deeper understanding and appreciation of the Incas and their culture. David didn’t have to give me a make up tour of Machu Picchu, but he did so out of kindness and care. Besides the gorgeous views all around and our exceptional tour guides, the next highlight for me was the lunch. We had lunch around 1pm and we were all surprised at how they managed to cook such amazing food without a kitchen. It was better food than some restaurants we had in Cuzco. There was avocado dip and fried wanton, chicken + mango ceviche, lomo saltado, potatoes, battered trout, apple water, various vegetables, and apple pie. The food was truly *chefs kiss* and maybe the best food we’ve had on a hike ever. I highly recommend this tour and our tour guides David and Ciprian"
