Immerse yourself in the rich heritage of Cusco, also known as the Imperial City and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Explore its charming streets that seem frozen in time, each corner revealing a captivating story. Visit the Koricancha Temple, a remarkable Inca palace and a center of worship dedicated to the Sun God. Marvel at the awe-inspiring Sacsayhuaman Fortress, an extraordinary display of Inca military architecture. Discover other significant Inca cultural sites, including the archaeological site of Q’enko. Finally, wander through the Plaza de Armas, the main square, and visit the impressive Cathedral, a symbol of religious importance in the city. Transfer back to the hotel after the tour.
Visit to the archaeological complex of Machu Picchu. At the indicated time, transfer to the train station to start the excursion to the Sacred City of Machu Picchu, recognized as one of the wonders of the world and declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The train takes us to the town of Aguas Calientes, from where we will ascend by bus to the Archaeological Centre and start the guided tour that lasts approximately 2 hours. During the visit you can see temples, squares, terraces, houses, barns, as well as the great biodiversity that exists in the surroundings. It is worth noting that the beauty of Machu Picchu is exalted by the extraordinary scenery where it is located. Around the citadel has been formed a National Reserve that has an area of 32,500 hectares, and that includes a constellation of archaeological monuments, which, in our opinion, were built as part of the Machu Picchu complex and not in isolation. At the indicated time we will return to Sacred Valley.
Note: The baggage policy on board the Expedition train is 1 bag or backpack per person weighing a maximum of max. 5kg / 11lb.
*Backpacks or bags taken into Machu Picchu must not exceed 40x35x20cms or have a capacity larger than 20Lts and must not contain single-use plastic bottles or bags. Backpacks or bags that exceed the indicated measurements can be left in storage for approx. $2 per bag.

Start our excursion to Ollantaytambo, an Inca city still inhabited that preserves a complex system of irrigation canals and foundations from that time, on which a large part of the town was built. The archaeological centre of Ollantaytambo has large groups of platforms, forts, squares, canals and the Real Casa del Sol, a megalithic temple of great mystical value.
Then we will go to the town of Maras, reaching the Salineras Mines that capture the underground water of the mountain and condense it into more than 4,000 artesian wells, which since ancient times served as a supply centre for the Inca Empire. We will continue our tour visiting the archaeological centre of Moray, the results of its terraces in circular form, more than 30 meters deep, with several rings of concentric terraces, one of each, a different micro climate, a living sign of having been a great centre of experimentation and scientific research for agricultural purposes.
Finally we will be visiting Chincheros. The Incas believed that in Chincheros born the rainbow and that is reason enough to visit this scenic town. However, there are several reasons for this excursion. At our first stop we will have a meeting with textile craftswomen that will offer us a demonstration of the beautiful fabrics that we will make, as well as the ancestral dyeing techniques with which they work until today. Then we will visit the archaeological complex, then visit the Colonial Church of the town, since we have incredible views of the mountain. Finally, we will visit the small craft market, located in the middle of the narrow streets of the town, where you can find handicrafts that are a true marvel.
