MACHU PICCHU, PERU

Why We Chose Peru

Words fail in describing the intensity and wonder of this adventure.

We've now taken six groups to these ancient and awe-inspiring ruins. What most people don’t realize from photographs is that this site in the clouds (Machu Picchu) lies atop a mountain, like the one behind it in the picture to the right. Getting there requires a nearly vertical ascent (by bus, unless you want to hike) on a road that snakes upward. How did an “ancient civilization” build it?!

No one returns home as the same person they were before.

Additionally, the modern day Peruvian people, culture, and cuisine are out of this world—warm, welcoming, and delicious. Finally, the accommodations we've chosen leave all of us returning home feeling nostalgic. From the modern Tambo del Inca just outside of Cusco to the incredibly charming, upscale bungalows in Aguas Calientes just beneath Machu Picchu, no one wants to check out!

We’ll spend 8 amazing days together, exploring the countryside, staying in exquisite locations, and jamming together on the nature of life, dreams, and happiness.

Check out the places we’ll go, below! This will be a truly unforgettable adventure we’ll remember for the rest of our lives – the beginning of new friendships, new discoveries, and new possibilities that exceed our wildest expectations.

Oh, The Places We’ll Go

Here is some of what we have to look forward to together over the course of this great adventure.

Machu Picchu

Machu Picchu – also known as "The Lost City of the Incas" might be the most familiar symbol of the Inca Empire.

Sacsayhuamán

This ancient complex is made of an astounding collection of megalithic precision-cut, interlocking stones, some weighing almost 200 tons.

Ollantaytambo

The Ollantaytambo ruins is a massive Inca fortress with large stone terraces on a hillside.

Awanakancha

A living museum of Andean cameloids including Llamas, Alpacas and the rarely seen Vicunas and Guanacos.

Plaza de Armas

Lively urban gathering place offering colonial arcades, a cathedral, gardens and a central fountain.

San Pedro Market

The Central Market of Cusco (or Mercado de San Pedro) was built in 1925 and is the oldest in the city.

Adventure

With Like-Minded People

Something magical happens when like-minded thinkers embark on these WOW TOURS together. Everyone is fully versed in spiritual thinking, personal responsibility, and creating our own realities. Dreams and challenges are shared, illumination is sparked, and lives are changed.

Connect

One-On-One With Mike

On every trip we take, Mike is part of the adventure in every way that you are. Whether we’re climbing a mountain, riding a bus, eating at a local restaurant, or passing out school supplies to children, Mike is part of the action! He’s always accessible and available to talk with participants.

Participate

In Daily Workshops

One of the highlights of our adventures are the daily workshops with Mike and Andy. During these casual, unplugged workshops, Mike will share material from his Playing the Matrix program and Andy will share material from his Smart Manifesting Workshop. There will be plenty of time for group discussion and Q&A.

Give Back

To The Places We Visit

It’s been our tradition on each trip to give back to the people who call the places we visit, “Home.” We do this in a numbers of ways, including visiting orphanages, schools, reservations, or refuges—bringing with us supplies they may need, donations, and short “Mike Dooley Pep Talks.”

TUESDAY, APRIL 1

DEPARTURE

If you are traveling from North America or Europe, you will depart today for Peru. Join your fellow TUT Adventurers in Miami, Florida for the overnight flight to Cusco, Peru.

Altitude Sickness: When visiting cities like Cusco (11,000 feet above sea level), shortness of breath and heart palpitations are normal due to the scarcity of oxygen. Some people may experience headache, loss of appetite, fatigue and nausea. Most symptoms develop the first day at high altitude, though, occasionally, travelers have delayed reactions. The best advice is to avoid physical activity on your first day in the highlands, drink plenty of liquids, including the local remedy: coca – leaf tea (it’s perfectly legal). You should also avoid alcohol and heavy food intake.

Shaping Up: To enjoy your trip to the fullest, you should be in good physical and mental health. Our exploration of Peru will include some hiking and walking tours. These tours can last two to three hours and are at higher-than-average altitude. We highly encourage brisk hikes and exercise in preparation for this trip.

DAY 1

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 2

CUSCO TO SACRED VALLEY

Upon arrival at the Cusco airport, we’re greeted with a welcome coca tea and local bread which will perk us up and help with altitude adjustment. Cusco is 11,000 feet above sea level! Afterwards, we proceed to the Sacred Valley. On the way, we will meet 3 shamans and take part in the Andean ritual “Pago a la Tierra” (Payment to the Earth).

Afterwards, we’ll visit Awana Kancha, a living museum of Andean cameloids including Llamas, Alpacas and the rarely seen Vicunas and Guanucos. Lunch will be served at a lovely Hacienda, and we will arrive at the Tambo del Inka Hotel mid-afternoon. Take some time to settle in before our first TUT Talk, followed by dinner at Hotel Tambo del Inka.

Accommodations: Hotel Tambo Del Inka (Lunch, Dinner)

DAY 2

THURSDAY, APRIL 3

SACRED VALLEY

In the morning, we’ll start with a TUT Talk, before heading out to visit the Pisaq ruins and marketplace.

After visiting the ruins, you may hike down to town or take transportation into town. Here you can bargain with the locals for your favorite gifts for the folks at home. Although it is very popular with tourists and locals alike, this colorful and vivid market still retains its local charm. Villagers, sometimes traveling from far away, gather to barter and sell their products. In addition, a large handicraft fair is organized by the Pisac and Cusco craftsmen who exhibit and sell a wide variety of fine crafts such as woven goods, sweaters, alpaca rugs, tapestry, sculpture, jewelry, etc. We will taste “empanadas” freshly prepared in a traditional oven. If the crowd becomes too much, the café balconies offer a superb overview and great opportunity for people-watching!

On the way back to the hotel, the group will observe and participate in a ritual of “Linderaje” in an Andrean community in the Sacred Valley. A tradition where an authentic party is held in the community in celebration of the boundaries and territories in Chinchero-Urubamba. This evening enjoy dinner at the hotel.

Accommodations: Hotel Tambo Del Inka (Breakfast, Dinner)

DAY 3

FRIDAY, APRIL 4

SACRED VALLEY

After breakfast, we will gather for a TUT Talk and then immerse ourselves in the Andean culture with a visit to the typical rural village of Maras in the Sacred Valley. We’ll be welcomed by a group of villagers, who will introduce us to their culture, customs, and traditions by means of several workshops.

The adventure continues to the ancient village of Ollantaytambo, the “last living Inca village of Peru,” including a visit to a local home to see the lifestyle people here lead. The ruins of Ollantaytambo are one of the few places where the Incas defeated the Spanish Conquistadors. We’ll have an impressive cooking demonstration and picnic lunch in the Sacred Valley before heading back to the hotel.

Tonight, we transfer to a special dinner at the hillside Hacienda Huayoccari.

Accommodations: Hotel Tambo Del Inka (Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner)

DAY 4

SATURDAY, APRIL 5

SACRED VALLEY TO MACHU PICCHU

In the morning, transfer to the Ollantaytambo train station for a ride in privately chartered cars on the Vistadome train to Machu Picchu. Upon arrival, guides greet us for the walk from the train station to the hotel (5 minutes) where lunch is served and we’ll have a TUT Talk.

After lunch, it’s time to take a shuttle bus to the most famous ruin site of “South America – Machu Picchu, where we will take a tour. Machu Picchu (also known as The Lost City of the Incas”) might be the most familiar symbol of the Inca Empire. It was built around AD 1450 at the top of a granite mountain and UNESCO declared it a World Heritage Site in 1983. Recently, it has also been named one of the “New Seven Wonders of the World” and the most visited ecological destination in the world. There are many theories about Machu Picchu, but one thing is for sure – it is one of the most impressive sites you’ll ever see!

After the tour, if time allows (Machu Picchu closes at 5pm), you may enjoy a free moment to wander around on your own. Finally, take the shuttle bus down to town and walk back to the hotel.

End the day with dinner at the hotel this evening.

Accommodations: Hotel Inkaterra Machu Picchu (Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner)

Where We Are Staying

Tambo del Inka

The hotel goes to great lengths to ensure an indelible stay, offering refined dining, a therapeutic spa, and premier fitness center, along with an emerald lagoon and blooming riverside gardens. The hotel’s elevation is a couple of thousand feet lower than Cusco's, so guests who go to Tambo first have an opportunity to acclimate gently. They also have the opportunity to explore the Sacred Valley at leisure, visiting villages renowned for their textiles or hiking to pre-Incan ruins. Rooms are spacious, with floor-to-ceiling windows, flat-screen TVs, and Wi-Fi.

Inkaterra Machu Picchu

Tucked into an exotic jungle valley overlooking the roaring Urubamba River and the razorback peaks of the Andes, InkaTerra’s rustic, Eden-like environment comes as a pleasant shock, with hummingbirds and butterflies flitting around well-spaced dwellings with adobe walls and terra-cotta-tile roofs. Classical music sets the tone; avocado, coffee, guava and orchid plants infuse the air; and the sound of trickling water soothes the soul. The guest rooms housed in separate whitewashed cottages vary in size and have skylighted ceilings that provide much-needed light through the lush vegetation. Locally inspired fabrics, tile floors with area rugs, dark period furniture, and ornate wrought-iron queen or twin beds with tartan spreads and alpaca blankets are common to all rooms. All have fireplaces and large eucalyptus timber beams overhead.

Palacio del Inka

A storied mansion dating back nearly five centuries, Palacio del Inka stands in the historic center of Cusco. Impressive stone staircases, arches and corridors, and the best elevators in the city lead to newly renovated guest rooms. Sleeping quarters display classic accents: ornate period molding, reproduction appointments, fine fabrics and upholstery and ornate window treatments. Beautifully framed mirrors reflect the watercolors of Cusco and roomy sitting areas, minibars, bottled water, and free Wi-Fi are all standard. This elegant hotel reveals a secret at every turn and is one of the best properties in Cusco.

Meet The Crew

Mike Dooley

aka "The Universe"

Travel, alone, is mind-expanding and invigorating, but when you add to the mix fantastic itineraries, in exotic locales, great conversations, and super-cool people... NOTHING ELSE COMPARES! I’ve been on every one of our WOW Tours, and they’ve quickly become the highlights of my year. During each trip, I have this feeling, "YES! This is it! Life is so awesome! I HAVE TO SPREAD THE WORD to all our fellow TUTTERS how truly awesome these adventures are!" So, needless to say, I’ll be with you throughout the entire trip, at the center of the action, part of every moment and experience! In addition to the adventure aspect, I’ll be delivering casual, unplugged workshops about the nature of reality, life, dreams, and happiness.

Andy Dooley

Mike's brother, law of attraction expert, mindset manifestation coach and breathworker

Andy will be there with us throughout the adventure! He will host several workshops, including morning meditations and breathwork, to set the tone for most days. Over the past 20 years, Andy has developed many transformational techniques for manifesting faster, releasing subconscious blocks, and letting go of limiting beliefs. Andy is a mindset manifestation coach, and he'll also be offering free one-on-one sessions, as will Mike! He'll show you how to activate a new Point of Attraction so you can manifest with more ease and flow. Andy's sessions are high-energy and very inspirational. He consistently receives rave reviews. Get ready to have a breakthrough transformational experience.

I will never forget your faces or the fun we shared!

“What stays with me is the people. Because Tahiti is gorgeous, but without the people it would be just another place to look at. From the island residents and crew aboard the ship (many of whom were island residents) to the Tutters and other guests with whom we played and laughed and danced on board, this trip became a blessed, sacred, romp that made seeing Tahiti very special. I may forget your names, but I will never forget your faces or the fun we shared!”

Inspirational and beautiful experience!

"I guess you could say this Tutter’s Bali trip captured the true essence of Namaste for me: “The Spirit within me salutes the Spirit in you” - a knowing that we are all made from the same One Divine Consciousness. With great appreciation and a joyous heart, I bow in gratitude for an unforgettable, inspirational and beautiful experience."

Thank you Universe!

"I cannot believe I almost backed out of the trip to Machu Picchu as I hated the thought of being in debt. Fortunately, I've been playing the matrix for some time now and decided to trust the process. After sharing the most amazing trip of my life with fantastic new friends, I came home to discover my apartment had sold after being on the market for 7 months! THANK YOU UNIVERSE."

How many people do you expect to attend?

Do I need vaccinations or immunizations?

ALL TRAVELERS should make sure that your standard adult immunizations and ‘boosters’ are up to date. Additional vaccines are not required for entry to Peru.

Do I need travel insurance?

BenchMark Incentives strongly recommends the purchase of travel insurance* before any TUT trip! Travel insurance offers travelers coverage for unforeseen problems, from a cancelled flight to a serious illness—or in rare cases, even an act of terrorism or the financial default of a travel supplier. If you miss a travel connection, even for reasons beyond your control, you are NOT necessarily protected from financial loss unless you have travel insurance. For example, if you encounter mechanical problems, flight delays, or inclement weather that causes you to miss connections, the airline carrier might re-book you, although in many cases (such as bad weather) it is NOT guaranteed (in which case you may either have to purchase an entirely new round-trip ticket or forego the entire prepaid trip without any reimbursement). Travel insurance can cover new flights or provide trip cancellation coverage (for a covered loss), as well as emergency medical expenses and medical transportation.

Travel insurance also provides 24 hour "911" emergency travel service, in case a traveler has to change a flight or a hotel room, in addition to assistance with emergency cash transfers, lost baggage, and pre-trip consultation services (travel advisories, passport requirements, inoculation information, etc.).

HOW TO PURCHASE TRAVEL INSURANCE:

You can obtain travel insurance from Travel Guard International. To view the various policies offered, log onto Travel Guard Insurance . You will have two options to purchase travel insurance: 1.) US and Canadian residents may call Travel Guard directly at 1-800- 826-1300. In this case you may be asked for a travel agent code. Please give Travel Guard the code 22735731 as this code will identify your booking with BenchMark Incentives, Inc. 2.) Visit Travel Guard’s website at Travel Guard Insurance to process the insurance yourself. Please be sure to read all policy information thoroughly and note that if you have a pre-existing condition you must apply for the insurance within 14 days of the trip deposit date.

Please note that Travel Guard insurance is only available to U.S. and Canadian residents at this time. If you live elsewhere, please check for such coverage within your home country from independent providers.

What can I expect from attending a WOW TOUR?

This is an opportunity for adventurers, like-minded thinkers from around the world, to come together and share the experience of a lifetime. There will be daily workshops, group excursions, free time to explore on your own, and time to connect with Mike Dooley and his brother, Andy, one-on-one.

How much free time will I have?

Each day, there will be time for you to spend however you like. Some days you will have free time in-between excursions and workshops, and other days you will have the entire morning or afternoon to relax or explore on your own.

What should I pack and bring with me?

You will need to pack clothes, toiletries, necessary medicines, electronics, and anything else you’ll need for a trip lasting 7 days. Click here to see our pre-departure check-list! We also recommend you take a look at the itinerary to plan accordingly when packing.

Can I bring my children and/or spouse?

Yes! We would love for your spouse and/or children to join us, however, the minimum age for children joining our adventures is 18 years-old.

Are there scholarships? OR can I trade my services in exchange for going on the trip?

We don’t have any scholarships available for WOW Tours at this time, nor are we accepting an exchange of services. The only way to attend is to register.
