Itinerary

DAY 1

Maras Moray and Chinchero half day tour

Duration: 9:00 am to 2:30 pm
Locations and Altitudes:

Chinchero (3,762 meters / 12,342 feet): Located 28 km from Cusco, Chinchero is known for its colonial temple built on Inca foundations. The Sunday market in Chinchero offers a vibrant display of colorful handicrafts and textiles, showcasing the pre-Columbian style of the region.

Moray (3,500 meters / 11,483 feet): Situated approximately 7 km southwest of Maras, Moray is a unique archaeological site characterized by giant depressions or natural hollows. These were used to construct terraces or agricultural platforms with irrigation canals, serving as a prototype for a greenhouse or experimental biological station. Moray played a crucial role in the agricultural advancements of ancient civilizations, contributing to the cultivation of various plant species.

Salineras (3,380 meters / 11,089 feet): Located northwest of Maras, the Salineras are an impressive sight consisting of around 3,000 small salt wells. These wells, with an average area of about 5 m², are filled with salty water from a natural spring situated in the upper part of the wells. As the water evaporates, the salt solidifies and is later harvested, granulated, and packaged for distribution in the region. The salt from Salineras is now iodized, making it safe for consumption.

We will return to Cusco, allowing you to reflect on the fascinating cultural and natural wonders you have experienced in the Sacred Valley.

The Best Way to Explore Perú 🇵🇪

I can’t recommend this agency highly enough! They made our vacation in Peru an unforgettable experience. From the very beginning, they stood out for their attentiveness, punctuality, excellent organization, and incredible coordination throughout the entire trip.I would especially like to mention our guide, Will, in Cusco. His professionalism, knowledge, and passion for history made every visit even more fascinating. We were amazed by all the interesting facts he shared about Inca culture, traditions, and the different archaeological sites. Having a guide like him made our experience much more enriching and allowed us to appreciate each place in a completely different way.I would also like to give a special thank you to Tania, Celestino, Jesus, Yusof, and Don Neri in Lima for their kindness, attention, and for making us feel so well taken care of throughout our trip.We traveled from Costa Rica, and we are taking home wonderful memories of Peru. Thank you to the entire team for making sure everything was so well organized and for treating us with such warmth and care.Without a doubt, an excellent agency for exploring Peru. We highly recommend them!Warm regards, Yuliana, from Costa Rica 🇨🇷❤️🇵🇪

Excellent experience

We had an outstanding experience with Taina at Machu Picchu. He was extremely professional, passionate and knowledgeable about Inca history, culture and the site itself. she adjusted the pace perfectly for our group, answered all our questions patiently, and made the whole tour fascinating and memorable. We couldn’t ask for a better guide and highly recommend him to everyone traveling to Machu Picchu.

Exceptional organization and clarity – great value!

Wow, what great service! I’ve been on many tours and few have had the clarity and communication skills that Tania and her team had. From the moment I reached out in interest to the end of the Machu Picchu excursion, Tania was exceptionally clear and helpful, making every step very easy to follow. Planning Machu Picchu on your own is *technically* possible, but it takes a tremendous amount of work to plan with a lot of unknown variables. Booking a tour with Machu Picchu Peru Travel makes it easy for not much more cost, and eases the anxiety of all the unknowns with the complex journey. It is truly a great value for travelers.Now if only I could have Tania organize the rest of life…! :)

Peruvians are extremely helpful, charming and kind and of course hard workers! I felt save walking around even late at night. It was simply magical Regarding tours and attention they were very puntual, organized and everything was on time! I send a huge shout out to the agency and every single guide that help us through our journey!

Highly Recommend! 100% Worth It

Machu Picchu Peru Travel – Super Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu 2D/1N TourI highly recommend booking with Machu Picchu Peru Travel for any of their tours. We did the Super Sacred Valley with Machu Picchu 2D/1N, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish.From the very beginning, their level of communication was top tier. Tania was fantastic, clear, quick, and informative even before we booked. She was patient, guided us through the process, and ensured we got the exact circuit we wanted 2B, making everything completely stress-free and well organised. When we arrived in Cusco, she personally met us at our hotel for a detailed briefing, which showed how much she genuinely cared about our experience and ensuring everything went smoothly.Pickup was always on time, and every effort was made to keep the tour running seamlessly. The Sacred Valley tour itself was very enjoyable, with a fluent English-speaking guide who made everything easy to understand and engaging. Later that evening, we boarded the train to Aguas Calientes, where we were met and guided to our hotel.That evening, our guide Ruth visited us for a briefing, she was humble, warm, and very professional. The next day, she accompanied us from the hotel to the bus and then up to Machu Picchu. Being a private tour made the experience feel very personal and insightful. Ruth shared a wealth of knowledge, took her time explaining everything, and even helped us capture some amazing photos.Overall, this tour was 100% worth it-excellent organisation, outstanding guides, and a truly stress-free way to experience Machu Picchu.

Absolutely Outstanding Experience – Highly Recommended!

We recently completed the 2-Day Sacred Valley Tour from Cusco with Machu Picchu Peru Travel, and it was one of the best-organized and most enjoyable tours we have ever experienced in Peru. From the very first contact to the final goodbye at our hotel, everything was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care for our experience. Communication was exceptional right from the start. The team was incredibly responsive on WhatsApp, answering all our questions promptly and patiently, even when we had last-minute requests and changes. Their quick replies gave us complete peace of mind as we planned our trip to Peru. The day before our tour, we received a detailed briefing (via WhatsApp and in person) that clearly explained the entire itinerary, what to expect, what to bring, and all the important timings. It was thorough and reassuring, which helped us feel fully prepared and relaxed. What impressed us most was how flexible and accommodating the team was. We had booked different panoramic train rides and specific circuits for Machu Picchu, and they seamlessly adjusted everything to match our preferences without any hassle. Their ability to handle these details smoothly showed just how experienced and client-focused they are. Our English-speaking tour guides were simply fantastic! They were not only extremely knowledgeable about the history, culture, and significance of the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, but they were also genuinely friendly, patient, and enthusiastic. They went above and beyond by acting as personal photographers for our group—taking beautiful photos from all the best angles and even suggesting creative shots we would never have thought of. Thanks to them, we now have stunning memories captured perfectly. The entire tour ran like clockwork. The transportation was comfortable and safe, the pacing was ideal (never rushed, but never boring), and the contingency plans they had in place for weather, altitude, or any unexpected situations made us feel truly well taken care of. Everything was thought through so we could simply relax and enjoy the magic of the Sacred Valley and the wonder of Machu Picchu. If you’re planning a trip to Cusco and Machu Picchu, I cannot recommend Machu Picchu Peru Travel highly enough. Their attention to detail, excellent communication, flexible approach, and warm, professional guides made our 2-day Sacred Valley tour an unforgettable highlight of our Peru adventure. Thank you to the entire team—you made our dream trip even more special! We will definitely be booking with you again on our next visit to Peru. Highly recommended – 10/10!

We had an excellent experience on our 2-day Machu Picchu tour and would highly recommend this company.

A special thank you to Tania, who was absolutely fantastic throughout the entire process. She was incredibly friendly, responsive, and helpful from the moment we started planning our trip. We had a few changes and requests along the way, and Tania was always accommodating, making sure everything was organized perfectly and that our itinerary would work smoothly. Her communication was excellent, and she gave us confidence that everything was under control.

All of our transportation, train tickets, and logistics were arranged flawlessly, allowing us to enjoy the experience without any stress.

Our guide at Machu Picchu was also wonderful. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about the history of the site.

Thank you to Tania and the entire team for making our Machu Picchu experience so memorable!

Siempre estuvo pendiente de nuestras dudas y nos brindó soluciones rápidas y eficaces.
Gracias a su apoyo, todo salió perfecto y superó nuestras expectativas.
Sin duda recomendamos a Tania y a la agencia al 100% por su excelente servicio.”

Spyros

What an experience! We did all our excursions with this agency and it was the best possible choice we could make.

Our organizer Tania was in contact with us a few weeks before we even arrived in Cusco. She made us a proper itenary starting with Machu Picchu (lower elevation than cusco), then Sacred valley tour and Rainbow mountain last.
Every day she was giving us extra information and making sure our schedule was up to date!

Also our guide Leni in the sacred Valley tour was the best we had in South America, many thanks to him as well!

We had a great time and plenty of experiences.
Thank you Tania (and the agency) for everything you have done for us!!

Jaime Garcia de la Riva

Una gran agencia que nos ha ayudado a organizar todo el viaje a Peru! Accesibles, ágiles y muy accesibles. Muy recomendables!

We had the pleasure of having this tour in the last week and can only say positive things about the organisation provided by the agency. The tour is well organised and gives you plenty of days to acclimatise with the high altitude in Peru. I would strongly recommend this option if you’re looking for a holiday week to see the best of this incredible country!

Recomendadísimo, estuve en Perú sola por 7 días y adquirí todos mis toures con ellos, las experiencias todas fueron 10/10, una excelente atención las 24 horas.

I dreamed of going to Rainbow Mountain from the moment I first saw photos of it. As someone who usually prefers planning every detail of my own trips, realizing how overwhelming and way more costly this journey would be on my own was tough. I dug deep into social media to find the right agency, sent a WhatsApp message late one night to Machu Picchu Tours, and that’s when my friendship with Tania began.

I asked endless questions, and Tania gave us absolute white-glove treatment. From the second we landed in Cusco until the moment we departed, not a single detail was missed or overlooked. Our guides were incredible—deeply knowledgeable, immensely proud of their Incan heritage, and so passionate about sharing it that their energy was palpable.

Our Sacred Valley tour served as the perfect bridge, giving us the history and context we needed to truly appreciate Machu Picchu. Though Rainbow Mountain was my original focus, our excursion to Machu Picchu was world-class—with a special shoutout to Leo, whose guidance made it unforgettable. Ending our journey with the climb to Humantay Lake was both a physical challenge and a priceless gift. Pushing ourselves to reach the summit was the most rewarding way we could have ever closed out our time in Cusco.

What blew me away even more was how Tania handled the unexpected. When bad weather caused our flight to Lima to be canceled, she stepped in like a total pro. Within a matter of moments, she rearranged our flights, secured us a hotel, and organized our transportation for an unexpected extra night stay. She turned what could have been an overwhelming situation into a stress-free extra day of memories by taking care of everything seamlessly.

Machu Picchu Tours made my Cusco experience far more than I could have ever planned, dreamed of, or imagined. I actually left Cusco shedding tears because my heart simply wasn't ready to end such an incredible journey.
If traveling to Peru or South America is on your bucket list, work with the team at Machu Picchu Tours. They won't just make a dream come true—they will give you an experience you will talk about for the rest of your life.

We had an amazing experience exploring Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley with this agency, largely thanks to the owner, Tania, who is incredibly sweet, professional, and always highly responsive. For Machu Picchu, she seamlessly arranged our round-trip train tickets and paired us with an excellent private tour guide. Even when we encountered a few minor difficulties during the tour, Tania was immediately available and helped us resolve everything quickly.

We had the best time with Mach Picchu Peru Travel company, not only in the Tambopata Amazon rainforest, but our one day Machu Picchu tour! We struggled to find reviews with them on the rainforest portion so we weren’t sure what to expect and it was so amazing!!!

Our guide, Javier was super knowledgeable, easy-going and all around wonderful. Everything was taken care of from transportation to and from the airport, to the beautiful accommodations, to the best food we’ve had in Peru. We even asked them for some of their recipes on this four day excursion because it was so well flavored. They accommodated vegetarian and dairy free! We saw a lot of animals thanks to our guide and I would recommend the four day tour because otherwise if you only do three days you just have one day to potentially see animals!
We could not recommend using this 100% Peruvian travel company more!! We would love to come back and use them again!

They also were very communicative via WhatsApp and laid out all the details for both the Amazon rainforest tour and the one day Machu Picchu tour.

A beautiful experience in the archaeological site of Machu Picchu. We were accompanied by an expert guide who explained the secrets of the place to us

Our 12-day trip to Peru with my three-year-old was no easy feat, but thanks to the expertise of “Machu Picchu peru travel” it turned into an incredible experience.

Among the numerous agencies I contacted, none could match the professionalism and dedication of Tania, their advisor extraordinaire.

Having traveled extensively to about 20 countries, I can confidently say that Tania’s swift responses, attention to detail, and spot-on itinerary planning were unparalleled. What’s more, their private tour rates were unbeatable. Working with Tania was an absolute pleasure, and I wholeheartedly recommend this agency to fellow travelers seeking a flawless, budget-friendly adventure in Peru.”
