Itinerary.
Pick up at your hotel at 06:30. At 7:00 am.
We drive 40 minutes north. Our first visit will be to the archaeological center of Chinchero, a city that still preserves the original Inca cemetery and is located in a very important agricultural area.
The Churches in the Sacred Valley are colonial and are built on the basis of the Inca temples. The artisans offer fabrics made with ancestral local techniques.
We continue our journey to the Inca de Moray Agricultural Experimental Center, a circular system of built terraces, microclimatic terraces for experimental purposes such as domestication, acclimatization, hybridization and general experimentation with plants.
Then we will visit the Salineras de Maras, explored since pre-Inca times. It is located at more than 3,000 shallow pools owned by almost 380 families.
The salt water comes from natural springs on the same hill called Qoripukiu (gold spring) after enjoying a buffet lunch of products from the Sacred Valley in Urubamba.
Then we go to the Archaeological Center of Ollantaytambo, which was an administrative, military, religious, social and economic center during the Inca times and which is also the starting point to reach the citadel of Machu Picchu.
In Ollantaytambo we visit the most important stone constructions, such as the large stone terraces, the Temple of the Sun and the fountain of the Baños de la Princesa.
Then we go to the archaeological center of Pisaq. Their lands were exploited through intelligent platform systems with their respective irrigation channels that allowed the almost exclusive cultivation of the best corn in the world.
At the end of the tour we will return to the city of Cusco and arrive in Cusco around 7:00 pm.
