Machu Picchu on Motorcycles

Machu Picchu on Motorcycles

(02 Days / 01 Night)

This is more than an unforgettable experience: Go from Cusco to Machu Picchu , on a motorcycle.

Had you ever thought of it? Now, you can do it, on the new Cusco / Quillabamba asphalted road, passing by the Sacred Valley’s villages, the Málaga Mountain Pass (4,350 m.a.s.l.), the highest point on the way, going by Santa María, to get to Santa Teresa, on a short stretch of road, to the Intiwatana train station and from there, by train to Machu Picchu Pueblo (Aguas Calientes), for just 10 kilometers.

But, before that, you will have enjoyed Santa Teresa´s delights, in Cocalmayo´s Thermo-medicinal Baths and a “monkey tail” canopy adventure.
