Day 1: City tour of Cusco with Sacsayhuaman (Half day)

Cusco (Altitude: 3400 m. - 11150 ft.)

For your private tour of Cusco, your private driver and guide will pick you up in the morning or afternoon depending on your choice, and take you to visit the most impressive attractions of Cusco, such as the breathtaking site of Sacsayhuaman, an archeological complex which holds sacred and ceremonial value to this day. There, not only will you be able to appreciate the huge -up to 70 tons- stones that fit perfectly, but you will also be afforded a spectacular view of the whole city of Cusco. You will also visit the Plaza de Armas and the Cathedral that overlooks the Plaza. Inside this unique building, you will be able to appreciate many examples of the works of the Cusco Art School and a quite unusual and interesting version of Christ´s Last Supper. Another sacred site you will visit is the Qoricancha, the former Incan Temple of the Sun, which is still considered sacred ground. Finally, you will also visit the San Pedro Market, where you will have a taste of what the everyday life is like in Cusco and where you will become acquainted with a wide variety of local produce and its nutritional value. Afterwards, we will take you back to your hotel and you will have time to spend the rest of the day at your leisure.
