Marveling at Machu Picchu

Hacking his way through the jungle, crawling on hands and knees "six inches at a time," Hiram Bingham came across one of the most important archaeological discoveries of the 20th century, the royal retreat of the Incas, Machu Picchu. Your own discovery of the site, an optional excursion out of Callao (Lima), will take you through narrow lanes and roofless temples, up stone terraces and to sacred sites once graced by Pachacuti, the greatest Inca emperor of all.
