Taxi from Cusco airport to Aguas Calientes/MP Pueblo

I am going to be arriving at Cusco airport too late to catch the morning trains to Macchu Picchu.

So, I'd like to try getting a taxi from the airport all the way to Aguas Calientes/Macchu Picchu Pueblo. I realize that I could take the train to Ollanto but I'd much rather go all the way to AC so that I can get an early bus to MP the following morning.

I've read some horror stories of people trying to get taxis from the airport (various bait & switch techniques etc). As I'll be travelling alone, I feel that much more subseptible to this sort of thing.

Does anyone have any recommendations for getting a reliable taxi? I've emailed the hotel I'll be staying at but they would probably charge an arm and a leg (and maybe a guinea pig..) to pick me up from the airport.

Thanks
