A 2-day Inca Trail guided tour to Machu Picchu: hike to Wiñay Wayna and the Sun Gate, sleep in a 4-star hotel in Aguas Calientes and visit the citadel at sunrise.

This 2-day Inca Trail guided tour is the short version of the route, done in two days. After the hotel pick-up, you take the train from Ollantaytambo along the Urubamba River to Km 104, with views of farmland and snow-capped mountains, and the trek begins there.

About three hours of walking lead to Wiñay Wayna, at 2,600 m (8,500 ft), with its fountains, temples and farming terraces. A short walk further is the campsite where the chefs serve a hot homemade lunch, before the path goes on to the Sun Gate. A bus then takes you down to Aguas Calientes for dinner and a night in a 4-star hotel.

On day two you catch one of the first buses up to Machu Picchu for sunrise. Your private English-speaking guide leads a two-hour walk (circuit 3), and afterwards you can explore on your own. Those with Huayna Picchu tickets can climb it, about an hour and a half round trip. A free afternoon in town comes before the train to Ollantaytambo and the drive to your hotel in Cusco.
