Itinerary
Our tour begins with a pickup from our hotel in the city of Cusco as we head toward the Sacred Valley to visit our first stop, Pisac.
We will start our tour at the impressive Cusco Cathedral, one of the most important architectural gems of the colonial era. Inside, you will find finely carved wooden altars, remarkable artworks from the Cusco School, and a rich collection of historical pieces that reflect the fusion of Andean traditions with Spanish influence.
After visiting the Main Square, our next stop is Qorikancha. This temple was the most sacred religious center of the Inca Empire, and its name means "Golden Enclosure" in Quechua. Today, it shows a unique mix of cultures, as the Spanish built the Santo Domingo Church directly on top of the original Inca stone walls.
For the second part of this tour, we will head to the llama farm and textile workshop. On this stop, as we make our way back to Cusco, you'll have the chance to feed the llamas, alpacas, and other South American camelids. You will also see how they traditionally produce beautiful textiles and handicrafts. Once finished, we will continue our journey to the next destination.
Next, we will head to the Cristo Blanco viewpoint for a guided tour. Here, you'll be able to take in a panoramic view of the whole city, capture some great photos, and then continue to our next stop
At the end of the tour, we will return to your hotel to conclude today's activities.

We took the Sacred Valley Tour with our guide Alfredo and driver Sandi and had an incredibly rich day exploring the native culture, learning the significance of cultural sites and ruins and enjoying local food at a buffet with many options and a great view. The service was personalized and they were both easy going, in tune to our individual needs and by the end we felt like family. They have a standing invitation to visit us and our mountains back home! Thanks for a truly memorable experience in the Sacred Valley!
