This retreat hosted by Unlocked has been carefully and passionately curated to give the adventurous and wellness-minded person an unforgettable and authentic experience in the magical country of Peru. On this retreat we explore Cusco, the Sacred Valley, Aguas Calientes and hike Machu Picchu. We experience the rich culture and charm of Cusco, practice yoga in the immaculate studio space of a luxury retreat center in the Sacred Valley, meditate in the seven Chakra gardens, discover ancient ruins, and explore the lost city of Machu Picchu.
Both guides have lived in Peru, are fluent in Spanish, have wonderful relationships with local businesses and individuals in Cusco, and are very familiar with the culture and customs. This gives you an extremely authentic experience while in Peru with us—one that cannot be replicated.
We will provide the best flight options that will have you arrive at the Cusco airport close to pick up time. If you for some reason cannot arrive to the Cusco airport within the pick up window, we can schedule you a safe taxi that will bring you to the hotel.
On this day, we will have a group lunch at the Niños Hotel followed by a grounding Cacao Ceremony led by a Peruvian wise woman. After this, we will enjoy a fabulous vegan dinner at Green Point (TripAdvisor’s 2022 World’s Hidden Gem Restaurant).

You will have ample time to explore the lost city of Machu Picchu and return down to Aguas Calientes for lunch on your own.
After hiking and lunching, an afternoon train will take us back to Cusco, Peru. This is about a four-hour train ride. Once we arrive back into Cusco at the Niños Hotel, there will be the option to eat something from their restaurant if you are hungry.
