Description
Start your experience in Cusco's Plaza de Armas, where you'll get a brief guided introduction to the history and culture of the ancient Inca capital. Then, you'll board a panoramic vehicle with large windows to enjoy the best views of the city while touring its traditional streets, such as the popular Calle Zapi and the picturesque neighborhood of San Cristóbal.
At the Church of San Cristóbal, we'll make our first stop to take in a spectacular view of Cusco and enjoy a colorful live Andean dance show. We'll continue to the majestic Sacsayhuamán complex, which you'll admire from a perfect vantage point to take impressive photos.
The route continues to Puca Pucara, an ancient Inca fortress that you can see from the tour, and then to the quiet village of Huayllarcocha, where a beautiful lagoon surrounded by nature awaits you. Here, you'll have a special experience participating in a traditional coca leaf ritual, a sacred symbol of the Andes.
Later, we'll visit Qenqo, surrounded by a eucalyptus forest, one of the most photogenic and popular places among travelers. Finally, you'll arrive at the iconic Cristo Blanco, where you'll enjoy a unique panoramic view of the entire city of Cusco.
On the way back, you'll have a blast with a lively 'crazy hour' show inside the vehicle, where the dancers will say goodbye with music, colorful costumes, and lots of Andean rhythm. A complete experience that combines culture, tradition, landscape, and fun to discover Cusco in a different and memorable way.
