Are you going and returning the same day? If so, it would be dark anyway between Olly and Cuzco. I would highly recommend taking a taxi or some bus/collectivo between Olly and Cuzco so you could stop at some of the sites along the way. The Sacred Valley has some nice places to see. Hopefully you will have the time. I took taxis/buses/collectivos both ways between Cuzco and Olly and spent a night in Olly each way before/after MP. Well worth it.
