How to Plan a Machu Picchu Trip

Choosing the Best Machu Picchu Tour Company

Selecting the right Machu Picchu tour operator is essential to experiencing this iconic destination's rich history, culture, and breathtaking beauty. Travelstride helps you find trusted Machu Picchu tour companies, ensuring your journey through this ancient wonder is seamless, enriching, and tailored to your preferences.

Expertise and Local Knowledge
Choose a tour company with deep local knowledge to fully immerse yourself in the history and culture of Machu Picchu. Expert guides can provide unique perspectives on landmarks such as the Temple of the Sun, Intihuatana, and the agricultural terraces.

These knowledgeable guides often lead tours that include hiking along the Inca Trail, exploring the Sacred Valley, or visiting the vibrant city of Cusco, enriching your understanding of the region.

Reputation and Reviews
When selecting a tour company, it’s important to read reviews and consider past travelers' experiences. High ratings and positive reviews often indicate reliable service, well-organized itineraries, and expert guides.

On Travelstride, you can filter companies by reviews, ensuring you choose a Machu Picchu tour company with a proven track record of delivering exceptional experiences—whether hiking through the Andes' stunning landscapes or exploring ancient Inca ruins.

Expert Itineraries and Flexibility
Look for companies that offer well-structured itineraries that cover Machu Picchu’s diverse attractions, including Huayna Picchu, the Sun Gate, and the lesser-known ruins of Llactapata.

Top travel companies provide flexible itineraries, allowing you to tailor your experience based on your interests. Whether you're intrigued by the Inca civilization, the natural beauty of the Andes, or the vibrant markets of Cusco, a customized itinerary can make your Machu Picchu adventure truly personal.

Quality of Accommodations and Transportation
Choose Machu Picchu tour companies that offer a range of accommodations, from luxurious hotels in Cusco to cozy lodges in the Sacred Valley. After a day of trekking or exploring, comfortable lodging is crucial to your experience.

Reliable transportation is also key—whether it's a luxury train journey aboard the Belmond Hiram Bingham, a bus ride up to Machu Picchu, or guided treks along the Inca Trail. Travelstride offers detailed descriptions and ratings to help you select tours with the best accommodations and transportation options.

Health and Safety Protocols
Select tour companies that prioritize safety, including medical support and secure transportation. This is particularly important when trekking the Inca Trail or visiting remote areas of the Sacred Valley.

Ensuring your tour operator has clear safety protocols for challenging hikes and busy tourist areas will give you peace of mind throughout your Machu Picchu journey.

Value for Money
Tour packages should clearly outline what’s included—accommodations, meals, entrance fees, and transportation—so you can compare offerings easily. Some companies might offer unique experiences like a guided tour of Machu Picchu at sunrise, a visit to the Ollantaytambo ruins, or a cultural experience with local communities in the Sacred Valley.

Travelstride’s filters help you find tours that provide excellent value for your money, ensuring a memorable experience that fits your budget.

Personalized Services
Ensure your Machu Picchu tour operator can accommodate specific needs, such as dietary restrictions, mobility assistance, or special room requests. Personalized services can significantly enhance your trip.

For example, travelers seeking more leisurely options might prefer train rides through the Sacred Valley, while adventure seekers may want to include additional hikes to Huayna Picchu. Tailoring your experience to your interests ensures a more fulfilling journey.

Focus on Sustainable Tourism
Sustainable tourism is increasingly important for travelers, and many Machu Picchu tour companies are committed to eco-friendly practices. Choose operators that support local communities, minimize environmental impact, and promote responsible tourism.

Sustainable options include staying in eco-lodges, supporting conservation efforts in the Sacred Valley, or engaging in cultural exchanges with local Quechua communities. By choosing a sustainable company, you contribute to preserving Machu Picchu's cultural and natural beauty.

Planning Your Machu Picchu Tour With Travelstride

Travelstride tools and resources help you plan the perfect Machu Picchu adventure, ensuring every aspect of your trip is tailored to your needs and preferences. The platform also lets you choose the best Machu Picchu tour companies to make planning easier. 

Assess Your Interests and Preferences
Start by identifying what excites you about visiting Machu Picchu—whether it’s trekking the Inca Trail, immersing yourself in the region's history, or exploring the flora and fauna of the Andes. Knowing your interests helps you select the ideal activities and destinations.

For example, history enthusiasts might choose tours that include stops at Cusco’s Sacsayhuamán and the ruins of Pisac. Using Travelstride’s filters, you can find tours that match your specific interests, ensuring a more personalized experience.

Choose the Right Itinerary
Once you've shortlisted your options, review the itineraries to ensure they match your travel style. Travelstride offers detailed itineraries covering Machu Picchu's significant attractions and lesser-known gems.

For instance, nature lovers may enjoy a tour that includes hiking through the cloud forest, while others may prefer itineraries focusing on Incan ruins or cultural experiences in local villages.

Budget and Value for Money
Travelstride categorizes tours by price range, making it easy to find Machu Picchu vacation packages that suit your budget. Transparent pricing details what’s included—such as guided tours, meals, and transportation—so you can compare options.

Some tours may offer extra perks like an exclusive visit to Machu Picchu before the crowds arrive or special access to local festivals, adding more value to your trip.

Consider the Group Size and Tour Type
The size and type of your tour group can impact your experience. Travelstride allows you to filter tours based on group size to choose a more intimate, small-group experience or a larger, more social tour.

For instance, a small group tour may offer a more personalized trek along the Inca Trail, while a private tour could provide exclusive access to areas like the Inti Punku or Sun Gate.

Check Reviews and Ratings
Use Travelstride’s filter for top-rated Machu Picchu tour companies to choose trips frequently recommended by fellow travelers. Reading reviews can offer valuable insights into what to expect from a tour.

For example, a review may highlight an exceptional guide who provided in-depth knowledge about Machu Picchu’s history, or you might read about a tour company offering unique experiences like visiting the Aguas Calientes hot springs.

Assess Your Fitness Level
Physically demanding activities such as hiking the Inca Trail or ascending Huayna Picchu require a good fitness. Travelstride’s Physical Level scale helps you assess the difficulty of each tour, ensuring you choose an itinerary suited to your capabilities.

Whether you’re seeking a moderate trek or a strenuous multi-day hike, understanding the physical requirements will help ensure a safe and enjoyable journey.

Get Travel Insurance
Comprehensive travel insurance is crucial for covering medical emergencies, trip cancellations, and other unforeseen events. Travelstride can help you find suitable insurance options, providing peace of mind throughout your journey.

Custom Guided Tours
Travelstride allows you to find and customize guided tours to suit your unique preferences. Whether you need special accommodations, private guides, or a tailor-made itinerary, custom-guided tours provide a more personalized experience.

  • Tailor-Made Itineraries: Customize your trip to include specific activities, such as visiting Machu Picchu at sunrise or a tour of the Sacred Valley’s markets.
