Highlights

The Sacred Valley of the Incas offers a glorious start to your visit to Cusco and Machu Picchu; sublime weather, overwhelmingly beautiful landscapes, colonial towns, ancient Inca settlements, and very friendly people reflect why so many people travel thousands of kilometers to visit this valley. These colonial cities, mostly inhabited by artisans, artists, farmers, and those tired of the city hustle, are some of the best places to explore not only in Peru but in South America.

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.
