4.Excursion to Machu Picchu in 1 day from Cusco with Vogager Train Inca Rail

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 35 reviews · 10 to 16 hours (approx.) · from $475Best value

Review of a one-day Machu Picchu trip from Cusco by Inca Rail, with transport, guide, tickets, costs, timing, and practical advice.

“Poor communications from this vendor. The day before, I had no tickets or meaning place or time. I was left hanging all day with no response to calls or emails. When arriving at aqua calientes… no one to meet me. Finally get a cal and had to hunt for them thru the maze surrounding the station. Requested help from Viator which was useless. They finally issued a worthless voucher for a Machu Picchu trip when you need 4 actual tickets and drivers need to be arranged.”
