It is an unbelievable 2-Day experience with amazing and breathtaking panoramic views on the 3.5-hour First Class Vistadome Train journey from Poroy Train Station (Only 25 Minutes outside of Cusco) to Aguas Calientes and back to Cusco in style. We will enjoy the views of the alpine meadows lying amongst a wide variety of colorful mountain peaks, the beautiful valleys, the Inca farming terraces – built by hand in the form of ampitheaters, snowcapped mountains and sub-tropical jungle along the way to Aguas Calientes – the town at the base of Machu Picchu. We will take a 25-minute shuttle bus from Aguas Calientes up the zig zagging hill to the mystical called Machu Picchu (2,400m/7,907ft). We will enjoy a mysterious journey back in time as we visit the Sacred Inca Hideaway called Machu Picchu, “Old Sacred Mountain” and have plenty of time to explore this magnificent Incan wonder while learning the amazing history and many little secrets about the thriving culture that once lived there.
An early start to begin the grand 2-day adventure we have ahead of us. Pick up from your hotel at 6:35 am, then drive in our private van to the Poroy Station where the trail will be departing at 7:35 am.

We had an incredible experience hiking the Inca Trail with Ray as our guide. Ray was amazing. He was super knowledgeable about the history of the Incas, and he brought that history to life. We visited three larger sites, and several smaller ones that we arrived at by foot deep in the Peruvian jungle. Ray's was an incredible, passionate, and experienced guide, and also just a great person we are lucky to have met. I also have to mention Moses, our porter who made an amazing lunch and hiked it up to our resting spot 2000 ft above the Urambamba River to Wiñaywayna.

Did the short inca trail through sam travel and it was an unforgettable experience. Hiking from the train to the Sun Gate with its beutiful views of macchu piccu was incredible. Our guide, Ray, was extremely knowledgeable, passionate, and always positive. At every location and along the way he had fascinating information to share and no question went unanswered.
