DAY 1: AIRPORT PICKUP – CITY TOUR
We will pick you up from the airport with a sign displaying your name and take you to your hotel. Once settled, we will begin the city tour.

The first place we will visit is the Cusco Cathedral to appreciate all the colonial art it houses. After that, we will head to the Inca temple of Qoricancha, known as the “Temple of the Sun,” where the impressive engineering used in its construction is truly remarkable. Then we will visit the Sacsayhuaman archaeological complex, located 3 km from the city of Cusco. This impressive Inca fortress boasts monumental stones and excellent architecture. It is famous for its enormous carved stones, some of which are 9 meters (30 feet) high and weigh more than 350 tons. This is where Inti Raymi, or the Festival of the Sun, takes place.

Next, we will visit Qenqo, a ceremonial and ritual center, an amphitheater where sacrifices were performed. Following that, we will visit Puca-Pucara, an ancient tambo, or place where the Incas stored their agricultural products and served as a lookout post along the Inca roads. Finally, we will visit Tambomachay, 7 km from the city of Cusco, a ceremonial center dedicated to water worship, and then return to Cusco.

Very early in the morning, we will pick you up from your hotel in Cusco and take you to the Ollantaytambo train station to board the train that will take you through the Sacred Valley of the Incas to the town of Aguas Calientes. We will arrive in Aguas Calientes at approximately 9:00 AM, and from there, we will take a bus to the Machu Picchu Archaeological Park, located high in the mountains.
