The city tour in Cusco. starts with a visit to the impressive Qoricancha, also known as the Temple of the Sun, one of the most important and representative places of the Inca Culture.

After these visits, we will return to the city of Cusco where our service ends.

Qoricancha: The temple of Qoricancha, the ultimate expression of Inca architecture and engineering. The Temple of the Sun or Qoricancha is currently also the Convent of Santo Domingo.

Sacsayhuaman: The impressive fortress of Sacsayhuaman is strategically built on a hill from where all of Cusco can be appreciated. It is famous for its enormous carved stones, some of which are 9 meters or 30 feet high and weigh more than 350 tons.

Qenqo: Q’enqo Grande and Q´enqo Chico. Etymologically, it means labyrinth or zigzag, it served a purely religious function, with a semicircular amphitheater on the outside with trapezoidal niches and a monolith that simulates being a puma, which is approximately six meters tall.

Puka Pukara: It means “red fortress” because the stones with which it is built have acquired the reddish color of the terrain. It is argued that it served to protect Tambomach’ay, an important palace in the Quechua state.

Tambomachay: It is located very close to Puka Pukara, it was intended for the worship of water and for the sapac inka to rest. This place is also called the Baths of the Inca. It consists of a series of aqueducts, canals, and several waterfalls that flow through the rocks.
