A great day trip, and the train ride to Machu Picchu was fantastic for the views and comfort. You don’t really get any free time at Machu Picchu and I think the information you get regarding the site very much depends on the guide you have. Having spoken to others that had different guides on the same trip this is apparent. Overall great value for money and well worth the 14 hours. Estoy muy feliz!

Very easy tour. Tour company contacted us on WhatsApp and met us at our hotel few days before ga e us our package with our tickets that we’re all in sequence of how you’re going to use them, very handy. Picked us up and drove to the train station. Then you’re on your own. Train station isn’t big just go through the gate and follow the crowd to the tracks and go right. Theres a cafe and waiting area and there are people there to help + screens which trains leaving/arriving. Once at Machu Picchu, was guide there to help and got us to our bus up. Simple. Guide was great, got great pics and good history lessons. Had 2 hours free time after, give yourself extra time to get back on the train since there’s tons of shops infront can get lost easily. Follow the arrows painted on the ground to get to the entrance of the train station. Return was straight forward picked us up from the train station and took us back to Cusco. Very easy trip and worth the $

It was an amazing experience. Lenin is an exceptional guide, and provided a lot of information with his personal touch. The dome train ride was wonderful and worth the upgrade, and on the way back we got some traditional music and dance show and a fashion show. This was a once in a lifetime experience!
