Itinerary Day 1: Cusco - Hydroelectric - Machu Picchu Pueblo We will begin this incredible trip with pick-up at your hotels between 6:00 and 6:30 am and we will head by minibus to Ollantaytambo through the fascinating landscapes of the Sacred Valley of the Incas. We will stop for breakfast (not included) to recharge our batteries before starting the Abra Málaga route.
