Machu Picchu & the Sacred Valley
The journey.
Machu Picchu survives its own fame — but only if you arrive right: acclimatised in the Sacred Valley, up on the first buses, and with an archaeologist who makes the stones speak.
The valley Days among Quechua weaving villages and terraced ruins, a private lunch at a hacienda, and altitude gained gently while the Andes rearrange your sense of scale.
The citadel The scenic train along the Urubamba, an afternoon visit as the crowds drain, then dawn on the upper terraces as the mist performs its slow reveal.
Cusco closes the journey — Inca walls under baroque churches, and pisco sours that taste like earned altitude.
Make this journey yoursQuestions people ask about Machu Picchu & the Sacred Valley
- How many days do you need for Machu Picchu & the Sacred Valley?
- We build it as 9 nights, 10 days. That is the length that lets the route breathe without adding a night nobody needed.
- How much does Machu Picchu & the Sacred Valley cost from India?
- From ₹24L for two people, land only. That is our starting price for the whole journey rather than a per night rate, and international flights are quoted separately at cost.
- When is the best time to go?
- Patagonia runs November to March. Peru is driest May to September, which is also the best window for the Inca Trail. The Galapagos is good year round with different wildlife in each season.
- What visa do Indian travellers need?
- Requirements vary by country, and several of them waive the visa entirely if you hold a valid US or Schengen visa, which is usually the fastest route. We check the exact rule for your passport and your routing before anything is booked. Rules change, so we confirm the current requirement for your passport when we plan the trip.
- How long is the flight from India?
- Twenty four hours or more from Delhi with two stops. This is a long way, which is part of why we plan it as a longer trip.
- Is this a private trip or a group tour?
- Private. The itinerary, the guide and the vehicle are yours alone, and every date is set around you rather than a fixed departure.
- Can the itinerary be changed?
- Yes. Machu Picchu & the Sacred Valley is a starting shape, not a fixed package. Add nights, swap a city, change the hotel standard, or tell us what you would rather do with a day and we rebuild it.
