You can visit Machu Picchu for a longer time and have enough time if you are planning to do Huaynapicchu or Machupicchu Mountain, which require a minimum of 3 hours approximately. After visiting the area of Machu Picchu 4 hours, you have to return to the town of Aguas Calientes to take a train at 14:30, or 18:30 to Ollantambo for 1.5 hours then by car to Cusco for 2 hours more to arrive in Cusco around 18:30 or 10:30 pm
Car option:
You arrive at Machu Picchu around 6:00 am for the guided tour for 2.5 hours then you have free time to explore the site on your own. If you take this option, and you are thinking to do Huaynapicchu or Machupicchu Mountain is possible but will be too tight and rush because you need to leave Machu Picchu at 11:30 to walk back to Hydroelectric for 3 hours in order to be in Hidrolectrica at 2:30 pm to take a car for 6 hours back Cusco. If you are considering doing this option and doing one of the mountains, we recommend you stay one more night in Aguas Calientes and return the next day to Cusco by car.
