Sacred Valley Tour Cusco Pisac Ollantaytambo Chinchero
We will pick you up in our private minivan from your Cusco hotel at 7:00 AM. The sacred valley tour will take you through ancient Incas sites, picturesque villages and stunning landscapes.

Then, we continue stopping briefly at the lookout point of Taray, where you can take pictures of the sacred valley mountain range. We carry on and arrive at Pisac market and visit its magnificent archaeological site. From here, our transport takes us to Urubamba, where will stop to eat our typical Peruvian dish.
Next, we visit Ollantaytambo, the second attraction in the sacred valley of the Incas. This place is known as the last living Inca village. That’s because the local residents still occupy the houses of the ancient Incas. Above all, you can walk its narrow stone streets and see the original Inca houses from inside. For instance, water canal still functions to this day.
Later, our private transport will head toward the Andean plateau and we visit the last sacred valley attraction. Perhaps Chinchero is the best place in Peru to experience the step-by-step weaving process. The local ladies of Chinchero inherited the spinning, dying and weaving skills from their ancestors the Incas. As a result, they are all masters in this field to this day.
At this place, you can also visit the Inca site of Chinchero and the colonial church. This place is also famous because its Sunday market, where locals still use barter system.

No, you can’t. Unfortunately the Inca site of Pisac is situated in opposite direction which makes a bit difficult to accomplish this service. We highly recommend to take this day trip from Cusco.

Yes, it is. Sometimes the extended sacred valley tour can be exhausting because we visit five places in only one day.
