From 100 Facts for 100 Years of Machu Picchu - Fact #24



By Catharine Hamm | Los Angeles Times Travel Editor

# 24 You can go to Machu Picchu and return to Cuzco in a day, but you'll have more of it to yourself if you plan to stay a night or two.  Day trippers usually leave by 2pm.

The majority of travelers coming from Cusco arrive at Machu Picchu around 10am and leave at 2pm.  The ruins are open between 6am and 6pm.  Arriving early in the morning 8am and leaving after 6pm allows you to make the most of your day at the ruins without having to add another day to your itinerary.
