Visit the breathtaking Sacred Valley, including a Llama Farm and the colourful Pisaq market. Admire the ruins of Ollantaytambo and marvel at the citadel of Machu Picchu, Wonder of the World.
Today we will take you to visit the Sacred Valley of the Incas. You will have the opportunity to visit the Andean community of Amaru, where you will experience the daily life of a typical mountain community and observe how the people weave textiles, such as belts and blankets, and how they grow and harvest their produce. You will also have an opportunity to taste the different types of delicious Andean potatoes and corn. The next stop will be Pisaq, which has a large daily market full of goods for both tourists and locals. On this market you will find villagers, coming from the mountains, to sell their home-grown produce and unique handmade arts and crafts. This market is highly recommended for having a wide variety of interesting souvenirs at great prices. After you have explored Pisaq, you will continue through the beautiful valley to Ollantaytambo, one of the last Incan refuges during Spanish colonization. You will step back in time as many of the houses and buildings continue to stand from the Incan empire and display original architecture. You will be invited to enter one of these houses to observe the building and the way in which the people used to live. We will then take you to visit the powerful and impressive Ollantaytambo ruins, temples and terraces. These sites continue to be well preserved since the Spanish conquest and provide an interesting insight into how towns were designed during the Incan period. After your Sacred Valley tour, we will take you to the Train Station. From here, you will board the train for a spectacular four-hour scenic journey to Aguas Calientes.
This morning, your tour guide will meet you at your hotel and transfer you to the ruins for your tour of Machu Picchu, ‘The Lost City of the Incas.’ At this spectacular sacred Incan site, you will learn about the history and visit the truly remarkable Temples of the Sun and the Condor. You will also see the aqueducts and houses while learning some interesting facts about the Incan Sacred Terraces. After your guided tour, you will have plenty of time to explore this truly magnificent site on your own. There are many short trek options, such as the one to the Sun Gate for an impressive view overlooking Machu Picchu and Wayna Picchu or a visit to the Incan Bridge, a secret entrance for the Incan Army. The most adventurous trekkers should not miss the famous mountain climb to the summit of Wayna Picchu, which can be scheduled at either 7 am or 10 am; however, there is a limit on the number of people who can climb each day so you will need to book it with us in advance.In the afternoon, you will return back to Aguas Calientes in time to for your train to Cusco.
