Mrs. Obama rules!
Xime666 is absolutely right! She gave you the exact times. From Lima you need to go to Cuzco first (by plane I presume as by bus is quite long and dangerous) then by train to Aguas Calientes (nearest town to Machu Picchu) and then by mini bus to Machu Picchu.


CindyLu
A long way north from costal Lima. The flight from Lima to Cusco took a couple of hours and then when you get to Cusco you still must take a train to Aguas Caliente /Machu Piccu and then take about 2 hours on the bus to get to the actuall site. You can also hike the Inca Trail to get there but that will take you at least 3-4 days of some rugged hiking and outdoor living.

I don't remember the distance, as I recall, it's a long train ride.


yourfriend_ss
By plane 1 hour 30 minutes, car 20 hours aproximately, 1000 kmts.
I was in Macchu Pichu some years ago, wow what a marvelous place, go there it is a nice place.

About 310 miles. Heres some info. on ways to get to Machu Pichu from Lima:

Nearly all tourists reach Machu Picchu by flying from Lima to the city of Cuzco (1 hour 15 minutes), staying overnight, then catching an early morning train to a village at the base of the ruins (several hours). They then transfer to a bus that zig-zags up a steep 2,000 foot high mountain slope to reach the Macchu Picchu site (30 minutes).

You can also hike from the Cuzco area to Macchu Picchu on a network of ancient paths collectively named the Inca (or Inka) Trail. The journey takes 2 to 10 days, depending on your speed and choice of paths.

Helicopter service between Cuzco and Machu Picchu is now once again available


xime666
Lima to Cuzco :1 hour 15 minutes (by plane)
By train to the base of the ruins (1 hour 30 minutes).
By bus to the Macchu Picchu ruins (20 minutes).

I was there some years ago, It is a marvelous place, try to visit you will enjoy your travel.
