Important: These day trips can start from the airport upon your arrival, hotel in Cusco or from the Sacred Valley of the Incas. The choice is yours. The Sacred Valley of the Incas was a divine place for the Incas, a gift that the Sun God gave them for their subsistence, for its geography and its wonderful climate. Our journey begins with beautiful landscapes of the surrounding Andes Mountains and valley. Stop at the Awanacancha llama farm to pet the calm llamas and alpacas. Then off to the Pisac archeological site and the colorful market, Ollantaytambo Inca town with its fabulous ruins on the side of town and finally the small town of Chinchero for a colorful traditional weaving demonstration.
