Begin your journey through the Inca heartland with a full day a beautiful Sacred Valley. The Sacred Valley of the Incas, just outside of Cusco, is a gorgeous sprawling span of green farms, lofty terraced mountains along with numerous quaint towns unmoved by time. The Sacred Valley is the center of lively festivals and the best handicrafts in Peru.
Our first stop is the artisanal capital of Peru, the small village of Pisac; it’s famous for its craft market in the main plaza, busiest on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays, where local natives come to sell their colorful woven cloth, alpaca wool ponchos and fashions, reproductions of ancient jewelry, engraved gourds and much, much more. Pisac is the best stop in Peru for mementos of your trip to bring home to family and friends.
After a delicious lunch in Pisac, we’ll travel Ollantaytambo, the only Inca town that remains inhabited. This traditional town is a wonderful example of pre-Colombian architecture. Here we will explore the expansive ruins overlooking the town and discuss their history and traditional beliefs of the people of the Sacred Valley. Later in the afternoon in Ollantaytambo we’ll catch the train to Aguas Calientes to get ready to explore Machu Picchu early the next morning.
Today is the highlight of any trip to South America – Machu Picchu! This world-famous site is easily the most remarkable pre-Colombian city in the world, partially because of its mysterious beauty and its lofty place among the Andean cloud forest.
A guided tour will help you discover and understand what Machu Picchu shares about the life and customs of the Incas. Surrounded by dramatic terraces cut into the mountain sides, famed for innovatively feeding the empire, this complex city will have you fascinated all day. Narrow roads and steps connect ancient houses, temples, warehouses, and a large central square. Our guide will give you a through history of the ruins and the Incas as well as share with you the possible explanations for Machu Picchu’s function and importance.

Today this quaint village is an attractive mix of pre-Hispanic, colonial and republican period Peruvian architecture. Our morning continues at the archaeological complex of Moray, located 7 miles southwest of Maras, are a set of enormous terraces that overlap concentrically in a giant hole. These beautiful terraces served the Inca Empire as an agricultural laboratory, a “prototype greenhouse.” Finally, we’ll visit the salt pans located northwest of the town of Maras.
The salt pans are made up of about 2,000 small pools with an average area of about 5 m². These fascinating pools have been in use since Inca and colonial times and are still used today by surrounding villagers. After our visit, we’ll return to Cusco and let you off at your hotel.
