Machu Picchu Guided Tour

After lunch, we started our guided tour of Machu Picchu. We hired a private guide on site. Her name was Mary Emilia Callaņaupa.

From the mountains, we were awarded with many magnificiant panoramic views of Machu Picchu. Now, we get a chance to take a closer look and hear the stories of the lost city of Machu Picchu!
