We had along, frustrating day today. We saw Machu Picchu and had a wonderful tour. But we left at 5:30 in the morning and got back around 9:30 at night. We only spent two maybe two and a half hours in Machu Picchu. The rest of the time was hurry up and wait. When we first arrived at the train station we got something to eat. After that we got onto our train and headed off to Hot Springs. Once we arrived in Hot Springs our tour guide group was suppose to be there, which she wasn't and she had our tickets for the bus and entrance to Machu Picchu. So we did some running around and finally this nice man helped us get our stuff. And he was from a completely different tour company. Once we got to Machu Picchu we can go into the park right away cuz we have to wait an hour and a half for our tour group to start. IT WAS VERY FRUSTRATING. But we got on the tour eventually, the tour guide was great and we took some really good pictures. Once we got back down to Hot Springs we went to go catch our train. Then we are told the train is an hour delayed but, there is still trains heading the way we want to, but not the same company… Finally we make it back to where we started and there was suppose to be a taxi to pick us up, but of course not, there wasn't. We got our own taxi, got a recipt and are gonna give it to Promotours tomorrow. Now it's just time for a beer. So if anyone is wanting to take a tour to Machu Picchu from Cusco. DO NOT use Promotours. Nothing but stress. But like I Machu Picchu was great, just the getting there part wasn't.
