A Journey Through Inca Capitals and Andean Wonders
Cusco City Tour → Koricancha → Sacsayhuaman → Qenqo → Puca Pucará → TambomachayDay 01
Your adventure begins upon arrival at your Cusco hotel, where you will be warmly welcomed and receive a comprehensive briefing about the exciting days ahead. The morning is reserved for you to rest and acclimate to the high altitude, a crucial step for enjoying your Andean journey.
In the afternoon, your exploration of the Imperial City commences. We will delve into history at the Convent of Santo Domingo, a colonial structure built upon the foundations of the legendary Koricancha, the Inca's main temple of the sun. The tour continues to the outskirts of the city to visit the magnificent fortress of Sacsayhuaman, renowned for its massive, perfectly fitted stone walls.

The archaeological circuit is completed with visits to the ceremonial sites of Qenqo, the 'red fortress' of Puca Pucará, and the tranquil water temple of Tambomachay. As dusk settles over the Andes, you will be comfortably transported back to your hotel in Cusco, filled with the first impressions of the Inca's architectural genius.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What is the maximum group size for shared tours?
Our shared tours are operated with groups of up to 12 travelers to ensure a quality experience. Private tours are exclusive to your group.
Is the entrance to Huayna Picchu included?
No, the entrance to Huayna Picchu or Machu Picchu Mountain is not included. These tickets must be booked several months in advance. Please let us know if you wish to add this, and we can check availability.
What type of luggage can I bring during the tour?
We recommend bringing a medium or small backpack with essential items. At Machu Picchu, if you have larger luggage, you may leave it at the entrance and collect it at the end, or coordinate with your guide regarding where and how to store your belongings during the visit.
Are there any age restrictions for this tour?
We recommend this tour for participants aged 8 and above due to the altitude and amount of walking. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
What happens if I miss the return train due to an unforeseen event?
We always recommend travel insurance. Train tickets cannot be reprogrammed within 24 hours of departure, so you would need to purchase a new ticket (either in Aguas Calientes or from Cusco). As your agency, we will provide all necessary assistance to manage the situation.
Can I choose the circuit or entry time for Machu Picchu?
No, the circuit cannot be chosen. However, depending on ticket availability at the time of your booking, we prioritize purchasing the most complete entry ticket. The entry times we offer start from 8:00 a.m. Your assigned entry time will be coordinated beforehand. If you already have your ticket, you must indicate this in your reservation. We recommend checking official availability at: https://tuboleto.cultura.pe/
Are there meal options for specific diets (vegetarian, vegan, etc.)?
Yes, but you must communicate your dietary requirements at least 48 hours in advance so the restaurant can prepare a suitable alternative.
Is the tour suitable for people with reduced mobility?
It is not recommended. The tour involves walking on uneven stone paths and steps with steep slopes. If you have a medical condition, please inform us when booking to evaluate possible adaptations.
What should I do if I get separated from the group during the group tour?
On group tours, your guide will provide you with an emergency contact number at the start. If you get lost, call that number immediately or head to a main exit or the park ranger's post for assistance.
