5The best option
We arrived in Cusco early in the morning and began a beautiful tour of the Sacred Valley. The next day we visited Machu Picchu. Everything was perfect from the airport pickup to our return. We are very grateful for the excellent service.

5Machu Picchu a city with a lot of energy
I had some inconveniences in getting the entrance to Machu Picchu, and I requested the services of the Mountain Palcoyo agency who helped me from the first day I wrote to them, they managed to get my entrance to Machu Picchu and the entire tour. Friends of fast communication and very good help. I thank you very much.

About Cusco

Cusco, the old Inca capital high in the Peruvian Andes, blends massive stone walls with colonial churches and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.

The Plaza de Armas is the heart of the city, framed by the cathedral and the Jesuit church of La Compañía. Inca stonework survives throughout the centre, most famously at the Qorikancha, the sun temple on which the Spanish built a monastery, and in the twelve-angled stone on Hatun Rumiyoc street. San Blas, the artisans' quarter, climbs steeply with workshops and cafés.

Top-ranked sights in Cusco: Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo Ruins.
