Cusco travel guide

View of Machu Picchu included in the Fascinating Cusco package
01

Cusco: The Starting Point of Your Trip

Cusco, at about 3,400 m above sea level, was the capital of the Tahuantinsuyo and today is the base for visiting Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley and the high-mountain landscapes of the region. Almost all the trips in this section begin with your arrival at the Cusco airport, a transfer to the hotel and an easy first day to acclimatize, usually with the city tour of Cusco and the four nearby ruins.

02

Which Package to Choose Based on Your Days

If you prefer private service, the Cusco Premium package includes private transportation throughout the trip.

  • 4 days

    Enough for Cusco and Machu Picchu by train. Options such as Cusco and Machu Picchu Short Trip or Multicolor Cusco, which adds Rainbow Mountain (Vinicunca).

  • 5 days

    Add the Sacred Valley or a high-altitude excursion. Andean Cusco and Majestic Cusco combine the city tour, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu and Vinicunca.

  • 6 to 7 days

    The pace is more relaxed and Humantay Lake, Maras and Moray come in. Look at Fascinating Cusco, Essential Cusco or Complete Cusco.

  • "Cusco Only" packages

    Designed for those who already have Machu Picchu sorted or want to focus on the city and its surroundings, with free days and high-altitude excursions.

  • Trips with Lima

    If you arrive through Lima, there are 7-day routes that combine both cities, with a food or photography focus.

Treks from Cusco

In addition to the packages by train, this category includes hikes of 2 to 6 days: the Short Inca Trail, the Classic Inca Trail and its 6-day version with nights in Cusco, the Salkantay Trek (also in a 2-day version with glamping), the Lares Trek and the 2-day route through Ausangate and Rainbow Mountain. They are demanding because of the altitude; we tell you honestly the level of each one before you book.

When to Travel and How to Prepare

From May to October is the dry season: sunny days, cold nights and the highest demand of the year. From November to April there is more rain, mostly in the afternoons, and fewer visitors. At any time of year, bring layered clothing, sunscreen and something waterproof.

Altitude is the factor that most affects how you feel. Drink water, eat light on the first day and leave the excursions above 4,000 m, such as Vinicunca or Humantay, for the end.

What the Packages Include

In general they include airport transfers, hotel nights with breakfast, a bilingual guide (Spanish and English), tourist tickets and the train to Machu Picchu when the program includes it. The details change by package, which is why each listing shows what is included and what is not. When you request a quote you can adjust dates, hotel category and activities.

Before you book

Don’t see your question? Message us and we’ll answer on WhatsApp.

How many days do I need to see Cusco and Machu Picchu?+

With 4 days you see the essentials: the city tour and Machu Picchu by train. With 5 to 7 days you add the Sacred Valley, Rainbow Mountain or Humantay Lake without rushing.

Do the Cusco packages include Machu Picchu?+

Most do, with train and ticket included. The "Cusco Only" packages focus on the city and its surroundings; check each listing for what is included.

How do I prepare for Cusco's altitude?+

Cusco is at about 3,400 m above sea level. Take the first day easy, drink water, avoid heavy meals and leave the highest excursions for the last days of the trip.

Can I customize a package?+

Yes. Use any package as a base and in the quote we adjust days, hotel category, activities and trip pace.

Which trek suits me if I have few days?+

The 2-day Short Inca Trail or the 2-day Salkantay with glamping give you the experience of hiking in the Andes without dedicating a week. If you want the full route, the Classic Inca Trail takes 4 days.
