We begin this beautiful day at 7:00am when your guide picks you up from your Cusco hotel in our private van. Our journey to the Sacred Valley of the Incas starts with a stop at the Mirador of Taray, offering expansive views of the Urubamba Valley and its traditional farming villages. You will see how agriculture in the Sacred Valley has remained largely unchanged over the past five hundred years. We then proceed to the archaeological site of Pisac, where you can view an impressive Inca cemetery with over 2,000 tombs, marvel at the meticulously engineered farming terraces, explore the Inca tunnel, and visit the religious sector of this significant citadel. We will spend approximately two hours exploring the Inca city before heading down to the colorful market of Pisac for a brief visit.

Next, we drive to Urubamba for a buffet lunch. After lunch, we continue to Ollantaytambo to explore the well-preserved Inca village and the massive Inca ruins. Our guide will provide a tour of the Sun Temple’s impressive architecture atop the formidable terraces, explaining its significance during the early Spanish conquest. After some time for dinner, you’ll take a train to Aguas Calientes, departing at 3:30pm and arriving at 6:05pm, where you’ll spend the night in your hotel.
