800,000 toruists walk around machu picchu each year, here is never seen before footage of machu picchu.
At the end of the century November 1999 Globos de los Andes hot air balloon company of Cusco Peru were contracted by a team of Lima photographers to make flights for an aerial registry of the lost city of the Incas Machu Picchu. As Pilot I logged over 7 hours of flight time over 3 mornings of flight operations. Flying a high teather 600ft over the Inca Ruin site. And this is how it all happened.

  • I'm so proud to be peruvian ;)

  • That's incredibly beautiful. Thank you for sharing this with the rest of the world! X)

  • your most welcome, Machu Picchu is closed now due to floods taking out the train entrance in January, Im happy to have this video up for people to enjoy the sights even when you cant go there in person.

  • I live in the sacred Vally and have seen Mapi many times. These are by far some of the most beautiful vistas I've seen of this treasure. I love the sepia tone.

  • thanks, it sure was a fun adventure I live above the valley now after living in it 12 years.
