Itinerary

Pick-up from your hotel will be between 6:30 am and 7:00 am. Once the entire group is complete, we will head north. Our first stop will be Chinchero, a picturesque village where we will see agricultural terraces, the remains of the royal estate of Túpac Inca Yupanqui, and a beautiful colonial temple built on the foundations of an Inca building. We will also observe the entire wool processing, from washing to spinning, and see how beautiful textiles are made.

Continuing on, we will arrive at Moray, where we will explore the natural depressions that were used as agricultural terraces for experimentation. Our next stop will be in Urubamba, where we will enjoy a delicious buffet lunch.

After lunch, we will head to the Salineras de Maras, where we will witness the natural process of salt extraction dating back to Inca times. We will then proceed to the Ollantaytambo Fortress, built to guard the entrance to this part of the valley and protect it from potential invasions by jungle inhabitants. After the visit, we will return to Urubamba for our buffet lunch. Following lunch, we will head to the village of Pisac to visit the Pisac Archaeological Complex, built during the reign of Inca Pachacuti. Its strategic location atop a mountain offers a commanding view of the valley leading to the Antisuyo region. After the tour, we will return to Cusco, arriving approximately at 7:00 pm.

FAQs

How can I prepare for the hike and prevent altitude sickness?

The best way to prepare yourself for this trekking experiencee is easy: spend at least 2 to 3 days at a high-altitude place like Cusco, so your body gets used to the high altitude. If you have already been to a high altitude destination before arriving to Cusco, we still recommend you spend at least one full day in Cusco to rest, recuperate from your trip, and enjoy the beautiful views of the city before your trek.

Additionally, taking good care of your body helps deal with the extra pressures that altitude creates. We recommend you to eat healthy food, drink lots of water and stay away from alcohol. Chewing coca leaves, drinking coca tea helps to alleviate any discomfort associated with the altitude.
