The Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu Experience

A Three-Day Luxury Journey Through the Heart of the Inca Empire

10–12 March 2027

This experience has been carefully scheduled to begin immediately after The Best of Lima, allowing guests to seamlessly continue their Peruvian adventure. However, it may also be enjoyed as a standalone luxury journey through one of the world’s most remarkable destinations.

For those wishing to complete the ultimate Peruvian journey, The Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu Experience has been designed as the perfect conclusion to our exploration of Peru’s extraordinary culinary heritage.

Over three unforgettable days, we’ll travel deep into the Sacred Valley of the Incas, where breathtaking landscapes, ancient history and one of the world’s most remarkable restaurants come together to create an experience unlike any other.

Our journey begins with a stay at Tambo del Inka, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, nestled in the heart of the Sacred Valley. Here, guests have time to relax and acclimatise to the altitude before one of the highlights of the entire Latin American journey.

The following day we’ll experience MIL, Virgilio Martínez’s extraordinary restaurant situated beside the archaeological terraces of Moray. More than simply a restaurant, MIL is an exploration of Peru’s extraordinary biodiversity and the relationship between altitude, culture and food. During this immersive six-hour experience, we’ll discover the ingredients, traditions and communities that inspired the philosophy behind Central, before enjoying one of the most unique dining experiences anywhere in the world.

From there, we’ll continue by luxury train through the spectacular Urubamba Valley to Aguas Calientes, where we’ll spend the evening at the beautiful Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel, surrounded by cloud forest at the foot of one of the world’s greatest archaeological wonders.

The following morning, accompanied by an exceptional private guide, we’ll make an early start to explore Machu Picchubefore the largest crowds arrive. As we walk through this extraordinary Inca citadel, we’ll uncover the remarkable history, engineering and mythology behind one of the New Seven Wonders of the World, gaining a deeper appreciation of the civilisation whose legacy still shapes modern Peru.

Throughout the journey, every detail has been carefully arranged. From Premium Economy flights and luxury hotels to private guides, luxury rail travel, luggage handling and every transfer along the way, we’ve designed the experience so that guests can simply relax and immerse themselves in one of the world’s most remarkable destinations.

This is far more than a visit to Machu Picchu.

It is an immersive journey through the history, culture and landscapes that continue to inspire one of the world’s greatest culinary nations.
