Breakfast. The day starts with an early morning rise to transfer to Cusco Train Station

as “The Lost City of the Incas”, discovered for science in 1911 by the American
explorer Hiram Bingham.
Arrival: Upon arrival at Aguas Calientes, you will make the 25-minute motor coach
ascent to the “Lost City of the Incas”.
We tour the ruins for around 2 hours, during which time our guide explains the
astounding degree of technology achieved by the builders of this famous site. The tight
construction, the water channels, the staircases carved from the living rock of the
mountain, and the Intihuatana, (or “Hitching Post of the Sun”), which served as an
astronomical calendar, all show technological advancement far beyond anything this
area of the world was thought to have achieved. These, along with the Temple of the
Sun, the Royal Tomb, the Priests’ House, the Inca Baths and the Temple of the Three
Windows, all allow us to glimpse back into the past and, with the help of our guide,
