Itinerary and highlights
Start the tour with pickup from your hotel door between 8.30am and 9.00am (between 12.30pm and 1.00pm for the late shift). Visit the Cathedral of Cusco, located right in front of the square, in the company of the tour guide. There you will discover the colonial and religious treasures of gold and silver that still hides the most important church in the city.
Next to the tour guide we will advance a few blocks to the famous Coricancha temple, the most important of the Inca empire. There you will tour the best-worked constructions and temples of the sun, moon, stars and more.
Then the whole group will board the minivan transport to the fortress of Sacsayhuaman where they will visit the immense walls made of rocks up to 120 tons. How did the Incas mold these stones?
In Qenqo you can find several spaces in little space. There you can find a large stone with carvings that make you think it is a ceremonial space. As well as tunnels with constructions that still cannot be explained correctly.
It's considered a military fort. It has the presence of some spaces with finely carved stones and also walkery. This Inca site allows you to appreciate beautiful landscapes and have a strong relationship with Tambomachay.
It seems to be a large and extensive place dedicated to water. That is, a ceremonial temple to worship water. This is because it has Inca constructions with finely carved stones, as in the main temples of Cusco and Machu Picchu.
