ITINERARY

The experience begins with pick-up from your hotel between 7:30 and 8:00 a.m., heading towards the charming town of Pisac, located about 40 minutes from Cusco. There, we will explore its impressive archaeological site, famous for its terraces and panoramic views, and visit the traditional artisan market, where you can admire and purchase handmade products by local artisans.

We will continue to Urubamba, a quiet valley surrounded by mountains, where we will enjoy a comforting lunch before departing for our next destination: Ollantaytambo. This site stands out for its majestic Inca terraces leading to the imposing Sun Temple, a masterpiece of Quechua engineering. Here, we will learn more about ancient construction techniques while walking through an authentic Inca settlement.

To end the day, we will take an alternate route to Chinchero, a picturesque Andean village known for its textile art and colonial church built on Inca foundations. We will visit its 17th-century temple, adorned with valuable paintings, sculptures, and altars that tell the history of this sacred place.

After the visit, we will return to Cusco, dropping you off at your hotel door to rest after a day full of history, culture, and unforgettable landscapes.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

The Pisac artisan market is open every day.

It requires moderate walking, especially when climbing the stairs at the ruins of Ollantaytambo and Pisac. However, you can go at your own pace.

Yes! It is the best option to optimize your time. The tour can end in Ollantaytambo around 3:30 p.m., from where you can take the train to Aguas Calientes without returning to Cusco. We suggest taking the 2-day Machu Picchu tour with us to properly organize where and how to leave your luggage.
