2 hours and in the distance we will have a view of Huayna Picchu mountain and some constructions of the city Inca of Machu Picchu.
This will be the most important day of our trip, this day we will be able to see one of the 7 wonders of the world, Machu Picchu, we have different ways to get here, the first is through the Inca trail, this walk lasts 1 hour with 30 minutes of pure ascent, and the second one, is by tourist bus, this short trip lasts 30 minutes.
