TRAVEL PROGRAM

• At noon, we begin by picking you up from your respective hotels to start our first visit, Qoricancha, the legendary Temple of the Sun and main ceremonial site of the Inca Empire, which, along with the Convent of Santo Domingo, showcases a fascinating combination of Inca and colonial architecture. We then proceed to the venerable Cusco Cathedral, with its marvelous altars carved in various colonial styles and splendid paintings from the Cusqueña School of colonial art.
• Next, we ascend to the heights of the city to visit the impressive archaeological complex of Sacsayhuaman, one of the greatest works of the Incas, where you can see gigantic walls of perfectly placed megalithic stones and enjoy the best views of the city of Cusco. From there, we visit Qenqo, an ancient place for ceremonies and sacrifices, followed by the Inca military post of Pucapucara (or red stone), which served specific military purposes as the control point for entry to Cusco and also as a resting place.
• We conclude at Tambomachay, a center of worship and water rituals where the Incas would ask the gods for rain to make their crops fertile.
• Return to Cusco.
