Discover the lost city of the Incas

Enhance your Trip to the Galapagos with a visit to Macchu Picchu. Known as the Lost City of the Incas, probably the most amazing urban creation of this ancient empire with its giant walls, terraces and ramps, which appear as though they have been cut naturally into the rock escarpments. Look out for the llamas which wander around the ruins and keep the grass short.

Intihuatana

Translated from Quechua by Hiram Bingham, the American explorer commonly credited with “re-discovering” Machu Picchu in 1911, this ritual stone’s name means “hitching post of the sun.” Researchers believe the Inca used it as an astrologic clock or calendar – if you’re here at midday on November 11 or January 30, the stone will be almost directly under the sun and cast no shadow.
