Machu Picchu is consistently the #1 travel destination in the world, why? The answer is simple: the experience is fascinating and unique.
You're not just driving up to the overlook, getting out of the car, and taking some pictures; you are traveling deep into South America, into the heart of the Andes. Stumbling upon the lost city of the Incas is only part of the journey.
Planning a trip to Machu Picchu is a dream for many people, but the planning can be a bit overwhelming. We've created some sample itineraries to give you a starting point for planning, and we're here to help with whatever you need. From booking hotels or airport transfers, let FLY CUSCO PERU TRAVEL AGENCY take care of all your logistics. They cover routes we've found to work particularly well and feature some of our favorite places to stay.
The former capital of the mighty Inca empire, the Peruvian city of Cusco, is a fabulous base from which to explore fascinating archaeological and historical sites, as well as enjoy time in nature. While the city has much to be proud of, much of the area's charm can be found beyond the city limits.
Here are some of the best day trips to do from Cusco for a fabulous Peruvian adventure.
