100% Local Company

We Are Machu Picchu Team

Machu Picchu Team is a 100% Cusco-based tour operator, founded by a local family with a deep love for Peru. Our team is made up of people born in this land: guides, cooks, muleteers, drivers and travel specialists who know Peru by heart.

We operate our own tours, with our own staff, from our office in Plaza Regocijo. Every trip you book with us creates work for local families and supports the Andean communities along our routes.
