Machu Picchu Classic Route Tour
- We will start our tour at the Guardhouse, which is one of the most classic photo spots of Machu Picchu. Here, you will be able to take stunning panoramic shots of the ruins and the surrounding mountains.
- From the Guardhouse, we will move on to the Main Gate, which is the entrance to the ancient city. As we pass through the gate, you will feel as if you are stepping back in time to the height of the Inca Empire.
- Our next stop will be the Temple of the Sun, a sacred site where the Incas worshipped the Sun God. This impressive structure has been carefully restored and gives us a glimpse of the architectural skills of the ancient Inca people.
- As we continue our journey, we will visit the Stone Quarry, where the Incas mined and shaped the massive stones used to build the city. You will be amazed by the precision and size of these stones.
- Next, we will arrive at the Sacred Plaza, a place of great importance to the Inca people, and many rituals and ceremonies were held here.
- Our final stop will be the Water Mirrors, a series of fountains and reflecting pools that were used for both practical and spiritual purposes. This tranquil spot is an ideal place to relax and take in the beauty of Machu Picchu.
