A private Machu Picchu tour with Peruways is paced by you: longer at the Sun Temple, a detour to the quarry, a slower walk through the agricultural terraces. The guide, train class and transfers are picked to fit, not a group’s schedule.

The baseline private tour is a Vistadome train from Ollantaytambo, Consettur bus up to the citadel, and a Ministry of Culture-licensed guide for two hours inside. Upgrades include the Belmond Hiram Bingham (four-course lunch, Pullman carriage), overnight at Belmond Sanctuary Lodge next to the citadel gate, or private vehicle for the Sacred Valley day.

For history-minded travellers, the private format earns itself in the Intihuatana district and the Royal Residence, where group tours skip. For photographers, it earns itself in the first-light hour before the day crowd arrives.

Peruways coordinates meals, pickups and the dovetail with Sacred Valley stops (Pisac, Moray, Ollantaytambo) if you want more than the citadel day.
