2 Nights in Tambopata Jungle
Your Amazon jungle experience begins by arriving in Puerto Maldonado on the edge of the Tambopata National Reserve, the gateway to the Peruvian Amazon and the main point of entry for visiting the lush southern rainforest. The town itself is unassuming, far from being a major sightseeing destination, with a very local, frontier feel where a few markets and riverfront areas give a glimpse into daily life, but most travelers spend only a short time in town before heading into a jungle lodge, immersed in nature, unless you opt for the one hotel in town. From here, you'll transition from the busy everyday world into the quiet, immersive experience of the jungle.

Day Stop in Ollantaytambo
Ollantaytambo is one of the most atmospheric destinations in the Sacred Valley, a small town where Inca history isn’t just preserved, but still very much lived. Its narrow streets, stone channels, and original urban layout date back more than 500 years, and this is why it's considered one of the best surviving examples of an Inca settlement. It's no overstatement to say that walking around Ollantaytambo feels like stepping into a living archaeological site.

Pachamanca Farm Lunch Group Foodie Experience
Pachamanca, meaning “earth oven” in Quechua, is an ancient Andean tradition where meats and vegetables are slow-cooked over hot stones for a rich, smoky flavor. The experience begins with a guided visit to the hotel grounds, an organic farm, a cañazo distillery, and a coffee roastery. Guests then enjoy a farm-to-table feast of chicken, pork, lamb, and optional alpaca, rabbit, or cuy, served with native potatoes, vegetables, and Andean sauces. Lunch is accompanied by chicha morada and served outdoors with views of mountains, Inca ruins, and glaciers.
It's time to head off and see what you almost certainly came to Peru for: Machu Picchu. There are two ways to explore this incredible site, either on a multi-day trek or by train.

The greatest advantage of Machu Picchu Pueblo is its location. Staying here allows travelers to reach the ancient citadel of Machu Picchu early in the morning, with minimal travel time. However, there's more to Machu Picchu Pueblo than just its convenient location. In this charming town, you'll be amazed by scenic mountain views, while the soothing murmur of the water as you walk along the river that runs through the town is the perfect soundtrack to the most relaxing strolls. Speaking of relaxing moments, many of the hotels we've partnered with in Machu Picchu offer spa facilities, ideal when preparing for, or recuperating from, exploring the ruins.

Stroll Machu Picchu's Artisanal Market
No visit to Machu Picchu Pueblo is complete without a stroll through the town's Artisan Market.

It's the ideal place to buy gifts and keepsakes before or after visiting Machu Picchu. Open until 8 PM, the market is a lovely place to go after dinner, on your way back to your hotel.
Day 6
Day 6 - Your First Full Day in Machu Picchu Pueblo

Machu Picchu Private Tour
Today, you will explore the marvels of Machu Picchu, likely to be the highlight of your journey through Peru. Your private guide will meet you at your hotel and accompany you to the bus station. From here, you will take a shuttle up the mountain, which is the sole means of accessing the archaeological site, as private vehicles are not permitted.
Upon arrival at the entrance, your guide will lead you through the designated sectors included with your ticket type. Highlights of the main archaeological site include the Temple of the Sun, the Sacred Rock, and the Temple of the Three Windows. You will also have time to enjoy the iconic panoramic viewpoint and experience the principal landmarks of the citadel.
For travelers with a higher fitness level, there is an option to add the additional hike to Huayna Picchu at an extra cost. Please note that this is a strenuous ascent on uneven stairs, but you will be rewarded with spectacular views overlooking the entire Machu Picchu archaeological site.
At the end of your guided visit, we highly recommend extending your stay, and we can book lunch for you at the beautiful Belmond Sanctuary Lodge, which sits at the site entrance and is the only hotel in the area. Alternatively, if you prefer to return to Machu Picchu Pueblo, you can take the next available bus back down the mountain, as they run frequently but cannot be booked in advance.
Reward Yourself With a Lunch To Remember
After your guided visit to Machu Picchu, we suggest stopping for lunch at the Sanctuary Lodge, just outside the site entrance. It’s the most convenient place to unwind after exploring the ruins, offering a comfortable setting and delicious food. The spectacular views of the surroundings from the floor to ceiling windows, accompanied by delicious Peruvian specialties make for a memorable meal and relaxing break before continuing your day at your own pace.
Relax at The Spa
The town’s Spanish name sets the tone for what awaits you in Machu Picchu Pueblo. Aguas Calientes translates into Hot Waters in Spanish, referring to the natural hot springs that are found in the town. Wellness is a key feature of many of the town's hotels, and many are equipped with spa facilities. If your hotel doesn't have a spa, we know the best spot in town and your city host will help you obtain the city pass. A massage, hot tub or sauna are perfect for soothing aching muscles, or to relax after a visit to the archeological site.

2 Nights in Sacred Valley Resorts
The Sacred Valley resort area is ideal for travelers seeking the perfect blend of nature, comfort, and relaxation. Evenings are usually peaceful, and most dining happens within the hotels, which offer excellent cuisine and beautiful settings. The atmosphere is more rural than urban, but that’s exactly what many guests appreciate: quiet nights, starry skies, and a sense of calm that comes into striking contrast with busier Peruvian cities. As the area is spread out, activities typically require short drives, and there are limited standalone restaurants or shops outside the hotels. But the combination of natural beauty, fresh air, and top-quality lodgings renders the Sacred Valley one of the most pleasant places to stay in the entire country.

3 Nights in Cusco
Cusco’s unique charm lies in its friendly and warm people, colorful traditional clothing, and animated local spirit. The city offers an impressive selection of top-quality hotels and restaurants, from casual spots serving Andean dishes to classy fine dining experiences. Cusco is also considered one of Peru’s safest and most walkable cities, with plenty to discover on foot. That said, visitors should keep in mind that Cusco is one of the world's highest cities, and it may take a little time for the body to adjust to this high altitude. It's no secret that the city’s hilly streets can make walking a bit tiring at first. Take your time to explore the city’s unparalleled atmosphere, warmth, and cultural richness with multiple colonial era and Incan sites in and near the city that comprise Cusco's UNESCO World Heritage List entry.

Acclimatization's Important!
Cusco sits way up at around 11,150 feet (3,400 meters) above sea level, so give yourself time to acclimatize when you arrive. Take it easy on day one, stay well-hydrated, and avoid heavy meals or alcohol until you’re feeling settled. Many travelers find that sipping coca tea (available at every cafe, restaurant and hotel in Cusco) or taking short, gentle walks helps their body adjust. If you’re flying straight in from sea level, expect to feel the altitude. Most people tend to adjust to the altitude within a day.

2 Nights in Arequipa
Arequipa is one of southern Peru’s most elegant destinations, offering great restaurants, atmospheric cafés, and beautiful public spaces all within a walkable historic district. It’s a charming place for travelers who value architecture, culture, and a more relaxed urban experience. While it has a long list of attractions, Arequipa still feels laid-back compared to Lima or Cusco, and evenings tend to be more about rooftop cocktails and leisurely dinners than nightlife. But its heritage, scenery, and understated sophistication make it a memorable favorite for many visitors.
