Sobre el tour

History, culture, and Andean landscapes: Cusco, Sacred Valley, and Machu Picchu in 5 days.

Cusco, Chinchero, Moray, Maras, Ollantaytambo, Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Tipon, Pikillaqta, Andahuaylillas

This 5-day tour from Cusco brings together the most iconic destinations in the region — a complete experience blending Inca history, Andean traditions, and breathtaking scenery. It kicks off with a City Tour of the ancient Inca capital, covering Qorikancha, the impressive fortress of Sacsayhuaman, and the archaeological sites of Qenqo, Puka Pukara, and Tambomachay.

Day two takes you through the spectacular Sacred Valley of the Incas — Chinchero, the Inca farming lab at Moray, the Salt Mines of Maras, and historic Ollantaytambo — before boarding the train to Machu Picchu, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. The journey ends with a half-day tour of the South Valley: the hydraulic complex of Tipon, the pre-Inca city of Pikillaqta, and the colonial church of Andahuaylillas, known as the «Sistine Chapel of America».
