Classic Sacred Valley Tour. Is a famous valley in the middle of the Andes of Peru, 20 km = 12 miles at its closest north of the Inca capital of Cusco. Sacred valley tour you get to visit Pisac, Ollantaytambo and Chinchero colonial temple plus the Inca terraces.
Hidden under the tawny skirts of formidable foothills, the spectacular Río Urubamba Valley. Known as the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Is about 15 km north of Cuzco as the Condor flies, via a narrow road of hairpin turns.
It’s worth exploring this peaceful, fetching corner of the Andes with attractive colonial towns and isolated weaving Inka towns. Star attractions are the markets and the lofty Inca citadels of Pisac, Ollantaytambo and Chinchero, but it’s also packed with other Inca sites. Its myriad hiking routes are deservedly gaining in popularity.
We know very well each place of this tour, since we have been grown in this area and we studied over 3 years more to get a guide license. as well, our vehicles have all the permits to operate.
We know when and where to go first to avoid the crowds. We want you enjoy the beauty and peace of each place, but some times it is not possible, specially when you want to start and finish in different places, however, we could fix it managing the starting time.
Our tours are PRIVATE or GROUP, so we are very flexible. We can stay in each place as long as you want, but do not forget that we have to be inside of the last archaeological párk before 4pm.
We are honest, it means we are always going to tell you the true about the sites, places to eat, shops, etc. We are no gonna make you waste your time in shopping places, unless you are really interested to buy something.
Discover Peru’s Sacred Valley of the Incas during this full-day trip from Cusco. Enjoy a mix of pre-Columbian history and Andean culture as you explore the Inca ruins of Ollantaytambo, visit the city of Pisaq, and see the Andean town of Chinchero, plus much more. A buffet lunch is also covered.
Sacred Valley of the Incas
Get picked up from your hotel in Cuzco, then take you to meet with your bus driver and start the tour of the Sacred Valley of the Incas. After a 30-minute ride, you will arrive at your first stop “Mirador” (lookout) of the Sacred Valley, where you can take great pictures of the Andes Mountains and the surrounding valley.
Shortly after, head to the traditional town of Pisaq where you will visit the markets and learn a bit more about the lifestyle of the local people. Then visit the archaeological complex and see the agricultural terraces, Inca cemeteries, and royal Inca buildings. After exploring the markets and ruins of Pisaq, you will head to the town of Urubamba for a tasty buffet lunch.
Later in the afternoon, continue to Ollantaytambo an Inca city built to guard the entrance to this part of the valley and to protect the Incas from possible invasions. Walk the streets and see the archaeological complex of this quaint town to get a clear idea of what this military, religious, and cultural center was really like during the period of the Inca empire.
On the way back through the valley to Cuzco, visit the picturesque village of Chinchero where you will see the remains of the royal estate of Tupac Inca Yupanqui and a colonial temple. While there, you will also see the well-preserved Inca walls at the main plaza and learn about the history of the sites. At the end of your tour, return to Plaza Regocijo in Cuzco and be transferred back to your hotel around 7:00 pm.
