Itinerary

Day 01: Tambomachay to Pumamarca

We drive for 20 mins to Tambo Machay our starting point.  From here we leave
civilisation and head off across alpine pastures to our first pass at 4200m. We
then cross a second pass at 4300m before descending to our lunch spot beside
Lake Queullacocha.  We cross two more passes in the afternoon before descending
to the traditional community of Pucamarca with its stone houses and thatched
roofs. We camp here for the night.

We
quickly pick up the Inca pathway, which runs through a narrow ravine before
traversing the hillside and arriving at the citadel of Huchuy Qosqo. Perched
high above the valley this impressive Inca site has a variety of architecture
with buildings in both stone and mud brick. After a guided tour of the site we
descend steeply to the town of Lamay where we have lunch before taking our bus
to Ollantaytambo to take the train to Aguas Calientes.

we rise early to take the bus up to Machu Picchu where we will have a guided
tour with our guide before returning to Cusco in the afternoon.
