Itinerary and highlights

Ollantaytambo is the last living Inca village that preserves the designs of Inca buildings at an altitude of 2,900 meters located in the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Among the most impressive attractions of this place are the Temple of the Sun, The temple has a set of superimposed terraces that are accessed by a steep staircase. The fortress is a stone pyramid that was built between two mountains to protect the valley. In the area there is also the mountain called Pinkuylluna or Tunupa, which holds vestiges of Inca architectural structures that seem to have been a warehouse for various food products. Ollantaytambo is undoubtedly a meeting place for nearby communities, who can be recognized by their ponchos and hats.

Moray is the place where agriculture begins, since the most important agricultural laboratory was located here, where seeds from different plants were adapted and later seeds adapted to different ecological levels were produced, a place that is located more than 3,500 meters above sea level.

The salt mines are a fantastic place, unique in the world. The salt comes from the mountains from a natural source with salt water which fills each of the wells. These wells have provided salt for hundreds of years in an artisanal way. Without a doubt, it is a place that you must visit.

Pisac offers us some impressive landscapes of the Andes mountain range. In this place the Incas built many agricultural terraces and warehouses or granaries. In this area the Andean people preserve the varieties of potatoes that we have and we can also visit the craft market.
