Machu Picchu Guided Tours Have Variety
Often known as the “the Inca’s Lost City,” Machu Picchu is situated in the Cusco area of Peru. One of the most remarkable prehistoric sites on the planet, Machu Picchu is the jewel of the Inca civilization and, when on a Peru holiday, it remains the country’s most trendy traveler destination. Touring with Alpaca Expeditions, who know this area inside and out, you’ll be able to take the best Machu Picchu guided tours offered anywhere.
Types of Machu Picchu Guided Tours
Machu Picchu sits at the top of numerous bucket lists, and tourists are needed to enter with an official visit guide in groups. Entry is allowed in either an afternoon or a morning time slot and is limited to around four hours. To tour the whole day, visitors must obtain two entry tickets. Those short of time often stopover at the prehistoric ruins on a day outing by train from Cusco, however, the four-day trek alongside the renowned Inca Trail is an alternative. Some multi-day tour alternatives also stopover other regional attractions, such as the Amazon rainforest and Lake Titicaca.
