Book a transfer from Cusco to Ollantaytambo in the Sacred Valley of the Incas. This is the most popular route for travelers heading to Machu Picchu by train.
Ollantaytambo is about 80 km from Cusco through the scenic Sacred Valley. The drive takes 1.5 to 2 hours, descending from 3,400m to 2,800m elevation. Some transfers include optional stops at Chinchero, Moray, or Pisac along the way.
Ollantaytambo is a charming Inca town with a massive fortress-temple complex and the main train station for Machu Picchu (Aguas Calientes). The living Inca town, with its original stone streets and water channels, is one of Peru's most atmospheric destinations.
