Yea, I'm sure all of you already know this. You can type Marco (or Polo) and the cheat activates. Then type it again and you're back exactly before you entered the cheat. You can turn the cheat on or off simply said.
Useless fact, I know.

Yes, but it took me years until I accidentally noticed... it only seems to work for The Conquerors Expansion though.

As Ingo said, it doesn't work for Age of Kings. I had AoK before TC came out, so I had no idea that you can deactivate the marco/polo cheats.

I only realized that you can deactivate the marco polo cheat when Shadows proposed this on the author's description of the Swallowed Realm to get around the boat bug. I was really surprised.
On a side note, the marco polo did not work for me to get around the boat scene, but you can give way point and your units walk around instead of taking the boat.

I've known this almost since I started playing Aok, maybe because I used to cheat so much when I played.
