WHAT'S INCLUDED

WHAT TO EXPECT

1. {
We will visit the South American Camel Reserve, where we can see llamas, alpacas and vicuñas in their natural state.
2. {
The Pisaq Archaeological Park (or Pisac) is a group of Inca buildings (a fortified city) that is located in the district of Pisaq, in the province of Calca, in the department and region of Cusco. At an altitude of 2 972 meters above sea level, and settled on a mountain near the town of Pisaq. It is believed that its strategic location provided greater security to the building in addition to being in a control area. The place also protected him, by height, from possible attacks by the Anti people, with whom they were in constant enmity. It is said that the architectural ensemble that forms Pisac would have been built during the tenth and eleventh centuries of our era, in the period of the Inca expansion and would have had urban and religious purposes. The name of Pisac or Pisac, does not have a definite translation, although there are people who believe that it could be derived from the Quechua word pisaqa, in relation to a bird, whose form would also have tried to be represented in the design of the territory. At the architectural level, in Pisac we can observe, that in the same way that the majority of the Inca constructions is built with stone carved, in such a way that the angles of them fit perfectly one on another making unnecessary the use of some type of mortar for the union of the same.
3. {
It was an Inca town. Preserves in time: houses, streets and canals as in the time of Tahuantinsuyo. The name of the town and the archaeological zone is due to the cacique Ollanta, who, according to the oral tradition, fell in love with a princess daughter of the Inca Pachacútec and was severely punished. In the set of Ollantaytambo, located on the hill overlooking the town, buildings such as the Temple of the Sun and its gigantic monoliths stand out: the Mañaracay or Royal Hall, the Incahuatana and the Princess Baths. In the upper part stands a fortress, with a series of terraces of carved stone, built to protect the valley from the possible invasions of ethnic groups that came from the jungles. One of the best preserved areas extends to the north of Hanan Huacaypata Square: a total of 15 blocks of mansions built on carved stone walls.
4. {
Chinchero was an important urban center whose main center was located where today is the church, in its vicinity are exhibited formidable walls of assembled polyhedrons that form retaining walls giving shape to the platforms, we can also see large rooms with windows, niches, doors and accesses. The current main square, where the Sunday fairs are held, concludes with an Inca wall on the eastern side, which has 12 niches, each 2m high and 1.50m wide. This wall in turn serves as a paramento and containment to another square that acts as an atrium in front of the Church. Also in the area we find the remains of three shrines called Titiqaqa, Pumaqaqa, Chincana; which are enormous outcrops of limestone carefully carved, by the ancient Peruvians, in the form of seats, stairways, cupboards and canals. There is a group of terraces built obeying the conformation of the terrain.

My entire experience was great! From the moment I booked the tour to drop off back at my hotel. They were very responsive and punctual. My tour guide Will was the absolute best! He was very informative and entertaining. He also didn't hesitate anytime I wanted to take pictures, which was awesome since I was solo. The lunch buffet was really good. I enjoyed all the sights and learning the history. I highly recommend booking this tour.

This tour exceeded our expectations. It was AWESOME 👌. Wilbur, our tour guide, is the best we have ever had, and we have had tour guides in many locations. Julio, our driver, could win a race in the NASCAR circuit in the USA. Julio is a great driver. This is to inform the uninformed: There are several locations on this tour that are strenuous hikes. Don't pass on this tour because of the strenuous hikes. You will kick yourselves when your friends who went on the tour tell you how spectacular it is and how much they enjoyed it.

A fantastic way to see the Sacred Valley. Tickets, driving, lunch, and everything else was taken care of so all we had to do was sit back and enjoy ourselves. Our guide, Wilbert, was great and we had some unique experiences that would not have been possible without his knowledge

This tour was COMPLETELY worth it to have a private vehicle and driver - Will and Ronnie were incredible! My sister and I saw many beautiful sights, learned a lot about the culture, and overall just had so much fun! The private, normal sized car was so nice winding through the mountains and we always felt good. For the record though - this tour is more like 10h than the advertised 5.5… but would 10/10 recommend to anyone visiting. We felt safe and had fun the entire time and our guides were amazing and made the experience so much better. The llama/alpaca stop was also a highlight and very fun amidst the other archaeological sights. Would absolutely recommend good footwear though to climb stairs - we walked about 4-5 miles which we liked but just keep in mind when booking. Thanks again for everything!

The visits they organized for us were the best, everything was very nice, we loved it. It was worth it. Always very attentive with everything, and answering our questions, day by day. The original is the one with the red plane. Recommended. Other companies with the same name are appearing, don't be confused.
