This is a great option for those that would love to see much more of Machu Picchu complex.
Nowadays the limited number of tourists allowed to visit the Inca citadel is being reduced to minimize the impact to the fable Inca city. Therefore, the entrance ticket is only valid for only one use. If you would like to see much more of the various detours, then you need another extra entrance ticket. Scenic Peru strongly recommend to see the rest of the complex for the next day.
There are two options for the second day, one if to climb to the challenging Huaynapicchu mountains to appreciate those amazing constructions in such rugged and terrific little terrain.
The other option for the 2nd day is to do a nice hike to the Sungate “Intipunku” or/and to the Inca bridge, those hikes are less strenuous and to enjoy more of the spectaculars views of the surroundings.
