A simple 7 night itinerary for anyone short on time but keen to visit and explore the magnificent wonders of Machu Picchu.
2 Nights – Lima
5 Nights – Cuzco (Machu Picchu)
UK – Lima (2 nights): You’ll fly from the UK to the coastal capital of Lima, where we’ll transfer you to your hotel for your first 2 nights. Amid deep valleys, Lima nestles colonial cloisters, spire churches, landscaped gardens and the rush of a 21st-century metropolis. Wander El Centro’s Old World grandeur and admire pretty canary yellow facades. Peruse pre-colonial art at the Museo Larco, climb the 1625-built wooden staircase at the Monastery of San Francisco and unwind under architectural splendours at the main Plaza de Armas. Markets, malls and authentic ceviche restaurants break up Lima’s districts, like the verdant and bohemian Miraflores. Enjoy evening folk dancers, Barranco’s beach options and a surprising twist in Chinatown.
Lima– Cuzco (5 nights): You’ll fly direct to Cuzco for five nights- this number gives you time to explore Cuzco at a relaxed pace whilst you acclimatise to the altitude, before finishing at the New 7 Wonders Of The World Machu Picchu. Cuzco is the city gateway to the world-famous Inca trail, with the Sacsayhuamán site two miles north. Cuzco itself blends Quechua culture, Inca heritage, Spanish flair and a breath-taking Andean mountain setting. Clay-tile roofing and cobbles here stagger beautifully preserved tradition amid vibrant markets and ancient relics. Gaze up at the Catedral de Cuzco and Iglesia de la Compañía de Jesús, sample roasted pollo a la brasa chicken and dive in and out of local bars.
Incas Sacred Valley Day Trip: Once you’re a little more acclimatised you will do this amazing day trip to discover the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Explore some of the most well known sites associated with this mysterious civilisation and take in the stunning Andean landscapes that surround it.
Machu Picchu Day Trip: The highlight for many here is the 26-mile Machu Picchu trail, which we include as a day tour by rail , but we can also arrange for you to trek the trail. Beautifully preserved Inca culture here is showcased in sights such as the Temple of the Sun, Sun Gate and The Sacred Rock. Cascading terraces frame this 7 New Wonders of the World citadel, and brave travellers can hike up the demanding Huayna Picchu (where the photo ops are legendary).
While in Cusco, take the opportunity to visit the stunning Rainbow Mountain, a natural wonder with its vibrant, multi-coloured slopes, offering breath-taking views and an unforgettable experience amidst the Andes.
Cuzco – UK: On your final day, we’ll be at your hotel to meet and transfer you back to the airport for your flight back to the UK.

Booked a trip to Budapest-Vienna-Prague with Claire at eShores. Whole experience was amazing Claire was extremely patient with me and extremely helpful. Can't wait to go on holiday now, but already planning where to go after that.
I rang eShores having read about their way of working - I liked that their office is relatively local and their team big enough to have experience of all continents yet small enough think for all the colleagues to know each other I rang with a vague outline of what I hoped to do for…

I have used E Shore twice for holidays both times with Michelle, she has the patience of a saint and has been amazing. Will definitely use them in the future
Had contacted a few travel agents about my holiday. None, repeat none of them were as knowledgeable is Matt, who was dealing with my enquiry. His knowledge of my destination & what I was hoping/ looking for was tremendous. The lengths he went to & patience he displayed was tremendous. Really made my choice to…
Dave is as very helpful. He made booking a fairly complicated holiday easy. We haven’t been on the holiday yet, but hopefully with Dave’s expert help it’ll be great.
I have used eshores before to organise a holiday. The service was second to none and the holiday was excellent. Everything went perfectly. For that reason I am using them again. I know I will be well looked after and safe. With eshores you can choose, mix and match different countries, transport etc and nothing…
We’ve just booked our Vietnam holiday through Andy at eShores, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. From the very first call, Andy was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely interested in what we wanted from our trip. He took the time to listen to our ideas and then put together a perfect itinerary that combined all…
Kadie from eshores has become my favourite go to for holidays and trips. Having just returned from a visit to China Hong Kong and Thailand organised by eshore I can say that it was one of the best holidays I had enjoyed for many years
I have dealt with Hannah a couple of times and found her very helpful and knowledgeable, it is really nice to be in contact with someone who one feels is genuinely interested in what you as a customer.
Nick has been extremely patient and helpful, he has now found the right flights and accommodation for us flying from the UK to Cairo, in February.
Laura has been very helpful in assisting us twice and responds quickly to our many queries. Our recent holiday to Lake Garda was a great success and we hope Madeira next year will prove likewise
Excellent service from start to finish. Our hotel package was designed totally to our requirments. Matt was super efficient and was more than happy to go that extra mile to ensure our package was the best..i would definitely recommend eShores and i will be using them again in the future.
Nick was a pleasure to deal with, He was patient and happy to make changes to our trip several times, I'd recommend dealing with him and eshores, Thanks nick
