WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. Qorikancha
The Qoricancha tempo, also known as the Convent of Santo Domingo is the second religious site to visit. It is considered the most important of the Inca empire, but when we detail it we will realize that its facade and interior corresponds to the fusion between the Spanish Inca culture. Here we will also see very beautiful and artistic paintings.
2. Sacsayhuaman
Around Cusco is the second stop, an enigmatic place called Sacsayhuaman. It is a structure made of huge carved stones, approximately 9 meters high and weighing at least 100 tons. These are arranged in an organized way and in perfect position for three platforms of 390 meters long. If you do the Cusco City Tour in June, specifically on June 24, you can enjoy in this place the Fiesta al sol or Inti Raymi, an annual and emblematic celebration of the city, full of a lot of culture.
3. Q'enqo
The fourth stop is the center of cults and ceremonies dedicated to Mother Earth, which is a little destroyed by time, but not enough to call it ruins. History says that this was an amphitheater of cults where the Inca dead were placed for ceremonies, the dead were laid on the trapezoid structures found there.
4. Puka Pukara
Puca Pucara is also known as the red fortress since the stones with which it was built have become this color due to its high iron levels. In addition to the fortress, other archaeological structures such as aqueducts, enclosures and fountains can be seen. Because of its proximity to Tambomachay and its characteristics, it is believed that it constituted a strong military defense of this place.
5. Tambomachay
And last but not least, we have the Tambomachay or the well-known resting place, just 100 meters from Puca Pucara. It is made from carved rocks, which form a beautiful set of canals and waterfalls, coming from springs. This is why this place was a place of worship of water. End of services.

Excellent tour. Covered all the main spots and a good English speaking guide who knew his history very well, he even managed to squeeze in a quick stop at the Blanco Christo.

Excellent visit, one of the must-see city tours. You must purchase a tourist ticket (130 soles but it is valid for 16 tourist attractions) before entering and hire a tour at the many agencies near the Plaza de Armas that provide you with a guide and transfer. It is far from the center to go on your own and it is better used.

Certainly the most impressive archaeological site near Cusco. The place is huge and has ruins on two parallel hills. It makes for great photos and it's really nice to just sit on the grass and enjoy the view.

Magnificent, unforgettable, Cuzco is one of the most beautiful cities I have visited in Peru. At the foot of Machu Pichu it is a must to visit

This imposing Inca fortress is surprising that so long ago, without technology or machinery, they were able to move these enormous blocks and also give them shape to obtain this grandiose construction.

Excellent view of the ruins and ample route to have a good time with the family. Incredible Inca architecture, tunnels, natural slippery slopes, panoramic views, etc. It is a good plan to enjoy it.
