What To Expect On Our Machu Picchu Tour
Once home to the ancient Incans, Machu Picchu was declared a historical sanctuary by UNESCO for its cultural significance to the natives of Cusco and nearby areas. It has over 200 structures that were built keeping in mind the spiritual and political needs of the time, most of which still stand today.
