Machu Picchu planning
Train times, entry slots & altitude
Allow at least 2–3 nights in Cusco or the Sacred Valley before Machu Picchu to acclimatise. We book Vistadome or Expedition trains and your entry circuit to match your fitness and timing.
Sacred Valley planning
A better base than Cusco
The valley sits 600m lower than Cusco — gentler on the lungs, closer to the best ruins and the Machu Picchu train. Many travellers wish they had based here from the start.
