Description

Pick up location: Your Hotel in Cusco Downtown

Pick up Time: 1h30 pm

Duration: Half day

After the pick up at the hotel, we will climb up the Archaeological Park of Sacsayhuaman, and start our tour visiting the fortress with the same name, a beautiful place that radiates peace. There, we will admire the huge rocks measuring up to 4 meters high that were used in its construction.

We will then head towards Q'enqo, and the ancient temple of the Puma, where we will be able to appreciate an altar for sacrifices in the inner part of a massive rock, and then Tambomachay, sacred fountains of life and health.

On the way we will appreciate a panoramic view from Puca Pucara, a watchtower that controlled the entrance to the city. Afterwards, we will visit the Temple of the Sun "The Korikancha”, on top of which the Saint Dominique Convent was built.

A legend tells that his temple was entirely lined with gold sheets that marveled the Conquistadors when they arrived.

Finally, we will go to the Main Square and will visit the Cathedral displaying the priceless colonial paintings and other works of art such as the Cross which arrived with the first conquerors.

Highlights

Be fascinated on a half-day tour of Cusco’s surrounding archeological sites, including the famous Sacsayhuaman, where the Incas’ construction of tightly placed stones created an incredible series of walls. With an experienced guide, you’ll also visit Qenqo, Puca Pucara and Tambomachay, as well as the Temple of the Sun (also known as Korikancha). Before your tour ends, visit Cusco’s Plaza de Armas and tour Cusco Cathedral – also known as the Cathedral of Santo Domingo – to see its stunning architecture.
