Pisaq (archaeological zone) serves as our initial point of discovery within the Sacred Valley, situated a mere 50 minutes from Cusco. Here, atop a mountain just 20 minutes from the town, lies the captivating archaeological complex of Pisaq. Its climatic conditions range from 14 to 20 degrees Celsius, offering a comfortable environment for exploration throughout the day and into the night.

The vibrant market of Pisac awaits, where an array of treasures beckon, including straw hats, alpaca textiles, musical instruments, paintings, ceramics, antiques, and jewelry.

Our journey continues to Urubamba, a pivotal locale within the Sacred Valley where we’ll indulge in a delectable lunch buffet.

Next on our itinerary is the Inca fortress and Ollantaytambo Citadel, situated opposite Pisac and approximately 80 km from Cusco. Here, amidst streets that still echo the architectural legacy of the Inca, lies the strategic military, religious, and agricultural center of the archaeological complex of Ollantaytambo.

Early in the morning, we’ll enjoy breakfast before heading to the bus station, where 7:00 AM we’ll board a bus bound for the Machu Picchu archaeological site.

Best Day Ever What an incredible experience! The whole day was carefully planned out for us and it all was well above anything we could have imagined! Our driver was amazing, very professional and helpful, the train provided views that were breathtaking and our Guide “Willie” was the best! Willie took us on the most incredible tour, he knew all the right places for pictures, his knowledge was amazing and he answered all of our questions and more. He provided a full day experience that was nothing short of perfection. This is the only way to go and see this; we’re definitely coming back!

Amazing experience, amazing tour guide It was one of the best experiences in our lives. We strongly recommend that anyone of moderate fitness and above to try it. It is good to have a pair of hiking shoes to make the experience better. Our guide (Willy) was amazing, he helped us a lot with the trail, he was well prepared and we didn't feel any risk at any moment. Also, he was very explanatory about inkas history and the monuments we saw during the trail. The quality of this experience is very related to the tour guide you will select. This guy was one of the best tour guides we had so far. There is no comparison to the other guides we had. We strongly recommend this experience with this guide. PS#1: bring a second t-shirt with you to change before you take the traditional photos of Machupicchu. Ps#2: Willy is a very good photographer, and gave guidance about the best place to take photos.

The tour revived history for us as we experienced the amazing locations we visited. I couldn’t have asked for a better tour. Gary Neslon is a positive and well educated local that has so much knowledge to share. We didn’t feel rushed or pressured at any time and the whole experience was one of a kind.
