Chinchero a été le lieu choisi par l'Inca Túpac Yupanqui pour établir sa résidence, tandis que Chinchero est l'une des villes les plus connues pour son industrie textile depuis l'époque inca, qui se distingue par son style et ses designs uniques faits à la main.
Moray était un centre de recherche agricole inca, il est prouvé qu'il possède jusqu'à 20 microclimats ou températures différents. Construit probablement entre les années 1438 et 1533, ce fascinant centre archéologique nous montre le haut niveau de gestion technologique agricole atteint par cette ville.
Les mines de sel de Maras sont situées à 3 000 mètres d'altitude, à 1 heure et demie de la ville de Cusco. Ces mines de sel et leur exploitation sont aussi anciennes que Tahuantinsuyo. Situés sur le versant de la colline Pichingoto se trouvent plus de 3 000 bassins remplis d'eau souterraine qui coule dans le ravin et est ensuite cristallisée par la chaleur intense du soleil. L'origine de sa source reste encore un mystère.
Le complexe archéologique d'Ollantaytambo était un centre militaire, religieux et agricole. Ce fabuleux cadre architectural est intéressant par la taille, l'originalité et le détail de ses structures. C'est un exemple typique de l'extraordinaire urbanisme des Incas, ses rues étroites pavées et sinueuses, les ruines disséminées partout et leurs terrasses agricoles sont des attractions qui se démarquent en elles-mêmes et le visiteur peut les apprécier dans toute leur splendeur. Ollantaytambo est également considérée comme la dernière ville inca vivante en raison des rues incas et des vêtements de ses habitants. qu'ils gardent encore.
Pisac est l'un des plus grands progrès de la civilisation actuelle en matière d'architecture et d'ingénierie. Seulement avec l'entreprise, localisée dans une zone géographique appropriée, vous pouvez comprendre la planification et le développement des anciens propriétaires de ces terres. Le complexe archéologique compte avec des extensions andenes dans la ladera avec des canaux d'irrigation et des niveaux pour l'accès très bien conçus, mais aussi avec des temples enfin des Labrados à Roca comme l'Intihuatana.

We went so many different places in 1 day! We saw 5 of the most well known historical sites in the Sacred Valley as well as 3 different experiences 1. Salt & Chocolate Tasting at a store that sold it. 2. Inca traditional culture including watching them clean wool with a traditional root, dancing, and spinning llama yarn, then we could buy (I felt a little pressure to buy) 3.Traditional jewelry making with an option to buy at the jewelry shop. Lunch was included and it's the biggest buffet I ever saw and everything was delicious!!! Word to the wise: I went the day after I flew in and had major altitude sickness. I had to stop climbing and had to sit a lot. Give yourself a day or two to climatize. We walked an climbed steps all day. We were very tired at the end of the day, but it was worth it! Also close your eyes on some of the roads, they are very steep and narrow.
Tiffany, Thank you for your detailed review of our Sacred Valley tour! We're glad you enjoyed the historical sites, cultural experiences, and the delicious buffet lunch.
The tour is spectacular. Each of the places visited has its own unique charm and beauty. The landscape and tranquility of nature made this an unforgettable trip. In addition, we had enough time at each stop to take pictures and enjoy the surroundings. The Guide had too much patience during the tour and the buffet lunch was varied and rich.

I travelled solo for this trip and happened to finish off my cash the night before as i was in Machu Pichu. This tour started at 7am and i did not have the time to go to the ATM. And this tour is very tight on schedule and there is no ATM along the way, only in the city. My guide Alex was super helpful and he actually paid for my ticket first so i could give him back later by end of the day. It is a very kind gesture on him and thanks to him, i could manage to visit all the sites.
Shirley; Thank you for recognize our the of pur Guide Alex , Our staff are comitment to provide an exceptional experience as much as they can, many things can happen. From our side We really recomend Peruvian Cash PEN, even nowaday are still the best pay option here!
Unfortunately I had to suspend and abandon the tour after lunch due to personal problems and I was not able to visit everything. Judging by what I visited, it was a fantastic tour, especially with the tour guy who was really fun and engaging. Of course, like many other tour operators, they make stops in some places to allow visitors to discover more about the Inca/Peruvian culture, but some of these places are just tourist traps , but it is not mandatory to purchase anything. I had some problems and they helped me find a taxi to leave the tour and go back to Cusco. I would still recommend this tour operator 100%!
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us! Sorry to hear that personal problems cut your tour short, but we're glad to hear that the time you did spend with us was enjoyable. Our tour guides strive to be fun and engaging, and we're happy to hear that yours hit the mark! You're right, some stops may feel like tourist traps, but we try to strike a balance between cultural immersion and respecting our guests' time and budgets. We're also glad we could assist with your departure and get you back to Cusco safely. Despite the abbreviated tour, we appreciate your wholehearted recommendation and hope to serve you again in the future!
Potential improvements: - The tour includes visits to three different stores; weaving/textiles, salt/chocolate/coffee and jewellery. They all have very pushy selling tactics. These stores have the best products, no doubt about that, but the same goods can be found in Cusco for a much cheaper price. For example, a synthetic poncho costs 180 soles at the weaving factory but we bought the same poncho for 90 soles in Cusco. We bought 1 kg aromatic salt for 45 soles but found out the next day that the exact same brand and salt only costs 18 soles in San Pedro Market. It’s clear that this tour operator cooperates with the visited stores. - The visit to Maras Salt Mines only lasted around 15 minutes and we were only allowed to see Maras from far away at the highest viewpoint. Very disappointing. In addition, the cost for foreigners is 20 soles/person, not 10 soles as stated in the tour description. - Very stressful the whole day and especially to visit the last place (Pisac) before closing. The tour should maybe start earlier? - After a long day when we thought we had visited everything and thought we were going back to Cusco, there was another store visit. Awful tour planning. - It was very warm and we could hardly breathe inside the bus. If the bus had an AC, it was never used. - If you don’t speak Spanish, don’t bother to book this tour. The guide only translated the most important parts. The whole tour was mainly in Spanish and you are going to feel left out. - While waiting at our hotel in the morning, our guide called and asked us to walk one block to meet him and then walk together to the bus. We booked five tours in Peru with different tour operators and this was the first time a guide wouldn’t meet us and pick us up from our hotel. - We weren’t dropped off at Plaza Mayor after the tour as stated in the tour description. We were dropped off 1-2 blocks away. This becomes a big deal after a long day when you are tired. Highlights: + Likeable guide that did his best to make us feel included among the Spanish speaking people. + Complete tour with the most important places to see. No place was like the other. + Tasty buffet lunch with a good variety of dishes.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts about your tour experience. We understand that our tour may not have met your expectations in certain areas, and we apologize if our shopping stops, tour schedule, and transportation did not align with your preferences. However, we would like to respectfully offer a different perspective on some of the points you raised. - Our shopping stops are designed to support local artisans and communities, and we strive to ensure that prices are fair and competitive, wich its not true the so expensive the prices in San Pedro Market and as Our guide explain , its decision of everyone if shop or not, we dont offer a shoping tour, but this stops shows what they do in the visited places. - We apologyzed about Maras Salt Mines visiting time, it was very demanded day which our guide see for convenience to leve the place comsidering the feeling of the group, about the Price there is some few days updates that we send you , altough in the booking page doest show imediately , we dont charge entrance tickets, as you saw we pay i situ and get the ticket. - About the very tigh schedule and drop in your hotel, its explanwd clearly were drop in the city center which is really close all the hotels in our city, and the reason its the trafic jam at teh arrival time , drop every traveler could take abour one hour which its not efficient, althought in private service as its one Hotel we can pick up and drove in your Hotel. - Our cars are touristic Transport and are equipped with air conditioning and the first person in charge its our guide, but dont tell us " I dont know what for they have air condicionate" - We will provide more comprehensive translations for non-Spanish speakers, ensuring everyone feels included, thank you for let us know. - About th pickup and drop-off, Our city its small some of them even has not touristic access, like your hotel has One way Cars road only, sorry for making you walk One block, but it was because some truck was bloking that path. We're glad you appreciated our guide's efforts, the variety of tour stops, and the buffet lunch. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve and provide a better experience for our guests.

Even though we were delayed a bit because of rain, it was totally worth it! We got to visit several places and had a decent amount of time in each. Got plenty of fun facts and tips on where to take the best pictures! I’d sign up with them again in a heartbeat if I came back and wanted to take people on a tour like this.
