Itinerary and highlights

Your tour begins at 9 am with pickup from your hotel in Cusco. Meet your tour guide and driver and head to the South Valley of Cusco, a place with not many tourists to enjoy the perfect blend of cultural expedition and biking adventure.

You will start the tour in Tipón, famous for its aqueducts and hydraulic engineering, as well as for its terraces. Visit the Inca ruins and explore the site. After this visit, continue to Andahuaylillas.

You will visit Andahuaylillas, where you will visit the local church, beautifully decorated and example of marvelous religious art. The church is also known as the “Sistine Chapel” of America. Enjoy a delicious lunch and then it's time for the bike ride to begin.

You will be provided with all the safety equipment you need before starting the activity. From Andahuaylillas, you will ride to Pisaq and visit the town of San Sebastián on the way. You will be riding on a paved road which is mainly flat and which affords beautiful sights. On the sides of the road, you will be able to appreciate beautifully cultivated fields with quinua or kiwicha, among other crops. Also, you will be accompanied by the Vilcanota River, which flows next to the road.

Once you arrive to Pisaq, you can explore the colorful market and take back a souvenir as there are plenty of handicrafts to choose from! Then, a van will take you back to your hotel in Cusco.
