TOUR TO CUSCO AT FIRST SIGHT

Enjoy a guided tour of this charming city, which was the capital of the Inca Empire. The tour begins at Coricancha, also known as the temple of the sun. It was built by order of the Inca Pachacútec to worship the sun and, upon the arrival of the Spanish, it became the base for the construction of the Santo Domingo Convent. Then, visit the Cathedral, the most imposing monument in the Plaza de Armas, and head to the hills where Sacsayhuamán stands, one of the most emblematic Inca buildings built in the 15th century. It is an immense fortress built with large stones, whose transfer and assembly remains a mystery. Continue to Qenqo, an archaeological complex for religious use, where rituals related to agriculture were held. Finally, you will visit Puca Pucará, located seven kilometers from the city. Puca Pucará, which means ´Red Fort´, was an architectural complex of supposed military use, with multiple rooms, squares, baths, aqueducts and towers. It is believed that it was used by the Inca entourage while the leader was resting in Tambomachay. After finishing the visit, you will return to your hotel.
