City tour + Valle Sagrado tour.

City tour + Valle Sagrado tour.

Day 1 If we talk about Peru it is clear that we have to talk about Cusco, an Inca and colonial city in equal parts. At first sight, walking through the heart of the city you will see a beautiful city of colonial architecture. But if you look closely, you will discover that the buildings have been erected over the ancient Inca city. The majority of the constructions conserve the old walls in the lower part of their structures, with their great stones of different forms, like those that conform the fortress of Saqsaywaman, the biggest of the conserved Inca constructions.

Itinerary

This tour starts at 13.30 hrs, with the collection of customers in their respective hotels and then visit the main tourist attractions of the city as they are: The Cathedral, the main temple of the city of Cusco. In Peru, the Cathedral of Cusco unites the temples of the Triunfo and the Sagrada Familia, forming the Cathedral Complex. It was the Palace of the Inca Wiracocha. Qorikancha: Religious center known as the "Temple of the Sol¨ highlights the impressive engineering used in its construction. Sacsayhuaman, located 3km from the city of Cusco, impressive fortress of monumental stones and excellent architecture.

Tambomachay, 7km from the city of Cusco, ceremonial center of the water cult traditionally known as the place of the waters. We will finish approximately at 4.30pm.
