Itinerary

Admission not included120 min

Once you have chosen the time you want to do the tour (morning or afternoon); We will pick up the group directly to the accommodation for the transfer to the Temple of the Sun or Qorikancha, with its perfectionist and impressive stone construction, its beautiful gardens and fountains. You will immediately discover the diverse historical, cultural and religious exhibition of the Qorikancha Site Museum, which brings together the pre-Inca, Inca and colonial eras.

Admission not included60 min

Next, we will continue our tour of Tambomachay and Pucapucara, which are very interesting important archaeological centers that tell their own stories. Here the guide will give you a brief explanation and time to take the best photos.

Admission not included60 min

To continue with the tour, you discover the Inca Sanctuary, Qenqo, whose meaning is a labyrinth, where you discover the ruins of the archaeological complex, ... such as the Intiwatana or Astronomical Observatory, underground galleries and the amphitheater.

Admission not included60 min

Our tourist mobility will be the transfer to the Saqsaywaman Archaeological Complex, which exhibits an architectural work, without intervening the natural, meshing large blocks of stone up to 5 meters high in a construction with broad mythological and cultural significance of the Inca empire. Located 3 kilometers from the city center (3,700 meters / 12,139 ft) offers the unrepeatable panoramic view of the city of Cusco. The city tour culminates at approximately 14:00 hrs for the morning schedule; or 18:00 hrs for the afternoon shift.

City Tour Cusco-Thank you, all beautiful!

I travelled with friends for holidays and we really enjoyed the tour. We loved getting to know downtown Cusco and Sacsayhuamán. The experience was even better thanks to our guide Lisbeth, who was excellent: very professional, friendly and with a lot of useful information that made the tour much more enriching. Thanks for everything!

Don't fall into this trap!

The worst tourist experience in my life. It's 6 hours instead of 4, as advertised. They show you only Incas ruins, no word about the beautiful colonial heritage which attracts all the world to this amazing city. Six hours of suffering without water, good, good, restrooms. It was so cold. We haven't seen anything interesting.

Operator response

Hi good afternoon, We deeply regret that your experience did not meet your expectations. We would like to point out that the itinerary clearly specifies that the tour lasts approximately 5 hours and is conducted by transportation. Had we been informed of your preference for a walking tour, we would have been happy to offer you the option of a walking tour of the city of Cusco, which is clearly distinguished from the city tour in both the itinerary and the tour title. We appreciate your understanding and remain at your disposal to address any further questions or concerns.

Horrific torture

We have chosen this tour only because it promises a 4-hour walk in the city of Cusco. Actually, it's a 6-hour tour of the Inca sites where they try to sell you various things. The sites are the same and may interest only people who have never gone to Italy, Greece, Turchia..... We've waited hours and hours in the cold with no food, no water, no bathroom. At the end of this hellish day, two of us four have fever. They killed us the only day to see Cusco.

Awful experience for us

Very disappointed. We haven't seen anything in Cusco, except the ancient walls in San Domingo Monastery and we weren't allowed to see the pinacoteca, because it's not from the Incas. This tour should be called Incas Heritage. It's very slow and boring, we got cold, hungry and we lost the only opportunity to see Cusco. It was a big error.
