Itinerário
Sua atratividade e cidade pitoresca oferecem artesanato elaborado em suas feiras de quinta e domingo, com uma longa e colorida tradição. Pisaq é um dos lugares mais visitados no Vale Sagrado dos Incas, por seus surpreendentes monumentos arqueológicos comparáveis apenas a Machu Picchu. Possui um enorme sistema de andorra Inca que sobe ao abismo, que se assemelha a enormes jardins suspensos. Apesar da etapa dos séculos, ainda pode ser usado para a agricultura. O local arqueológico, localizado na parte alta, é conformado por bairros. O Intiwatana, o maior cemitério pré-colombiano do continente, também suas plataformas de cultivo (andenes) e as torres de vigilância do mastro. Pisaq atende colonos de cidades próximas e milhares de visitantes. Um dos atrativos dessas feiras é o desfile das autoridades ou dos Varayocs que vão à cidade para ouvir a missa em quíchua, principal língua da região. Na parte alta estão as ruínas incas de Písaq com um grande sistema de andenerías e com um importante relógio solar em pedra ou Intihuatana. Hoje Pisaq é um dos parques arqueológicos mais importantes da região e constitui um dos melhores destinos turísticos; seu nome possivelmente deriva de um tipo de perdiz muito comum nessa área conhecida como "p'isaqa". Alguns especialistas sugerem que a cidade pré-hispânica tinha a forma de um "p'isaqa" que representava a fauna local.
A encantadora cidade de Urubamba é envolvida por altos picos andinos no coração do vale sagrado. Ao contrário de Ollantaytambo e Pisac, cujas ruínas incas são a atração principal, o apelo de Urubamba é a beleza natural circundante e suas vibrações descontraídas. A série de belos hotéis é o lugar perfeito para se desconectar e se deliciar com um luxuoso spa. Esportes e passeios cheios de aventura estão a uma curta distância! Vamos parar aqui para o almoço.
Ollantaytambo é uma vila encantadora que preserva os projetos dos edifícios incas, localizados a uma altitude de 9160 pés na província de Urubamba. Entre as atrações mais impressionantes deste lugar estão o templo cerimonial em adoração à água e uma fortaleza que guardava a entrada do vale para repelir qualquer invasão. O templo tem um conjunto de terraços, um sobre o outro, que os visitantes escalam através de uma escada íngreme. A fortaleza é um colosso de pedra que foi construído entre duas montanhas para proteger o vale. A área também abriga o Templo de Inti (o deus do sol), Incamisana, os banhos das Ñustas (princesas), as torres funerárias de Cachiccata e um grupo de terraços escalonados e muito íngremes ao lado de uma colina. Ollantaytambo também contém a montanha chamada Pinculluna ou Tunupa, que guarda os vestígios das estruturas arquitetônicas incas, que parecem ter sido um depósito de vários alimentos. Ollantaytambo também é um local de encontro para comunidades próximas, como os Huayruros de Willoc, que podem ser reconhecidos por seus ponchos e chapéus vermelhos e pretos.
Chinchero é uma pequena vila indiana andina localizada no alto das planícies varridas pelo vento de Anta, a 3765m, a cerca de 30 km de Cusco. Há belas vistas sobre o Vale Sagrado dos Incas, com a Cordilheira Vilcabamba e o pico nevado de Salkantay dominando o horizonte ocidental. Acredita-se que Chinchero seja o berço mítico do arco-íris. Sua principal reivindicação ao turismo é o colorido mercado de domingo, que é muito menos orientado ao turista do que o mercado de Pisac. A vila é composta principalmente por casas de tijolos de barro (adobe), e os moradores ainda fazem seus negócios em trajes tradicionais. A vila pode ter sido uma cidade importante nos tempos incas. O remanescente mais marcante desse período é o enorme muro de pedra na praça principal, que possui dez nichos trapezoidais. A construção do muro e muitas outras ruínas e terraços agrícolas (ainda em uso) são atribuídos a Inca Tupac Yupanqui, que possivelmente usou Chinchero como uma espécie de resort rural. Na praça principal, uma igreja colonial de adobe, datada do início do século XVII, foi construída sobre as fundações de um templo ou palácio inca. O teto e as paredes são cobertos por belos desenhos florais e religiosos. A igreja está aberta aos domingos para a missa. Meia hora a pé da vila leva você ao Lago Piuri, que uma vez alimentou Cusco com água. Demora cerca de 3 horas para caminhar ao redor do lago, passando por pequenas aldeias pitorescas.

Must-visit sites to understand Inca civilization. Guide Regi was knowledgeable and cultured. Four restaurants at different locations reserved for 15 people. Decent cuisine. However, there was complete disorganization of the itinerary by the agency in managing the pickup and drop-off times for the client, which were specified in the reservation contract signed three months earlier. The pickup at the hotel, which was supposed to start at 8 AM, was changed the day before, with times moved to 7 AM and then 7:20 AM, knowing that at 7:40 AM the agency was asking us where we were while we were waiting in the hotel lobby for their taxi! which took us elsewhere in Cusco to pick up other clients. We finally started after 8:30 AM and arrived in Pisac inevitably late, only having 30 minutes to climb and freely visit this perched site. 45 minutes to even an hour would have been more realistic! We were then split into four different restaurants, which generated a lot of traffic and wasted time on a program already packed with various visits. What a surprise it was to receive an untimely message from the agency during the meal, demanding that we respect the schedule (sic!), be punctual (!), and not disrupt the normal flow of the excursion at the risk of causing some to miss a train scheduled for Machu Picchu. We, of course, responded that the agency should not shift its own responsibilities, particularly regarding improvisation in the organization, onto the client. At 5:30 PM, as night was about to fall, we were going to visit an archaeological site in Chinchero; the ticket was no longer useful since there were no tourists left. Finally, after 6 PM, still in Chinchero, we were dropped off at a weaving workshop to have the techniques explained and possibly buy souvenirs. We resumed our journey, and at nearly 8 PM, while the drop-off was scheduled at the hotel, we were dropped off more than a kilometer away from the hotel, left to figure out how to get back. The guide immediately found a taxi for us as well as for herself. Traveling regularly, we had never encountered such a situation, such incompetence from a tour operator in managing an excursion, let alone the audacity to demand in a peremptory manner that the client respect the group's constraints. In conclusion, we are taking a 3-week road trip through Peru, and more than halfway through the journey, we can affirm that there are many professional agencies experienced in such tours that have moved beyond improvisation and bad faith to justify themselves.
Nous vous remercions pour votre commentaire et pour avoir pris le temps de partager votre expérience. Cependant, nous souhaitons apporter quelques précisions, car certains points mentionnés ne correspondent pas aux faits. Concernant la prise en charge, l’horaire de ramassage entre 7h10 et 7h20 avait été préalablement convenu avec vous et accepté de votre part. Notre personnel était présent à l’heure indiquée devant votre hôtel et vous a attendu. Comme vous ne vous présentiez pas et ne répondiez pas à nos appels, le bus a dû poursuivre son itinéraire afin de ne pas retarder les autres participants du groupe. Les employés de votre hôtel peuvent également confirmer cette situation. Afin d’éviter que vous ne manquiez l’excursion, nous avons organisé et pris en charge à nos frais un taxi pour vous permettre de rejoindre le groupe. De la même manière, à la fin de la journée, nous avons également payé un taxi pour vous permettre de rentrer plus facilement. Nous souhaitons également préciser que le point de fin de l’excursion indiqué dans le programme est la Plaza Regocijo, comme mentionné dans la réservation, et non votre hôtel comme vous l’affirmez dans votre commentaire. Pendant le circuit, le guide a également dû attendre à plusieurs reprises votre retour afin que le groupe puisse poursuivre l’itinéraire prévu. Malgré cela, l’excursion s’est déroulée normalement et les autres participants se sont montrés satisfaits du service reçu. Nous comprenons que votre expérience n’ait pas répondu à toutes vos attentes. Toutefois, il est important de rappeler que la prestation réservée était une excursion partagée et non une excursion privée. Dans un circuit partagé, les horaires et le temps consacré à chaque visite doivent être respectés afin de garantir une expérience équitable pour l’ensemble des voyageurs. Si vous souhaitiez davantage de flexibilité concernant les horaires, les arrêts ou le temps passé sur chaque site, nous vous recommandons de réserver une excursion privée, spécialement conçue pour ce type de demande. Notre objectif est toujours d’offrir le meilleur service possible à nos voyageurs. C’est pourquoi nous communiquons les horaires à l’avance, expliquons le déroulement des circuits et faisons de notre mieux pour éviter tout désagrément. Nous regrettons que vous ayez gardé cette impression, mais nous estimons important que les faits soient présentés de manière complète et objective.
Highly recommend. They thought of everything and answer fast
We spent a beautiful day exploring some less traveled places in the Sacred Valley. We organized everything the night before, the agency was super helpful and flexible to meet our needs. We visited the Perolniyoc waterfall and Naupa Iglesias, our guide was very knowledgeable and passed on the passion for Inca culture. Highly recommended!
Grazie di cuore per il tuo bellissimo commento! Ci fa davvero piacere sapere che abbiate vissuto una giornata speciale esplorando gli angoli meno conosciuti della Valle Sacra. Siamo felici di essere riusciti a organizzare tutto in poco tempo e di aver soddisfatto le vostre esigenze. La cascata di Perolniyoc e Naupa Iglesia sono luoghi magici, e sapere che la nostra guida vi ha trasmesso la passione per la cultura inca è per noi la soddisfazione più grande. Grazie per averci scelto e per consigliare la nostra esperienza. Speriamo di rivedervi presto per una nuova avventura in Perù! 🇵🇪✨ Un caro saluto!!!
My two friends and I took the Sacred Valley tour from Ollantaytambo to Cusco, and it was incredible! Our guide, Jose, was outstanding punctual and knowledgeable. He met us at our hotel right on time, and we jumped straight into the adventure. Jose was with us every step of the way, sharing so much fascinating information that we wanted to keep learning even after the tour ended. I especially loved how everything was customized to fit exactly what we wanted to see and do. Highly recommend this tour 10/10!
It is a great reward to know that our team was able to create such a special experience for you and your friends. Jose is passionate about history and we love that he was able to pass that passion on to you. We really appreciate your recommendation and hope you come back soon.
We just finished a 4-day Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu Tour with Encuentros Peru Adventure, and it was perfect. Our guide, Stevin, was with us the whole time and gave us a clear idea of what to expect. The people of Peru are incredibly friendly, the scenery is breathtaking, and we learned so much about the culture. Stevin truly made this trip a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
We are so glad you had an unforgettable experience in the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. Stevin is a great member of our team and we are delighted that he was able to share his knowledge and enthusiasm with you. Peru has so much more to offer, so we invite you to come back soon.
They picked us up at Ollantaytambo Station at the time of the train arrival from Machu Picchu according to our itinerary. We communicated in simple English during the tour. They carefully explained the history and background of the ruins, and answered our questions accurately. They also flexibly responded to our needs with the tour schedule, and stopped at places where we could buy the same items cheaper than in Cusco or Machu Picchu. I recommend it.

Just got back from the Sacred Valley of the Incas and Maras Moray tour with Encuentros Peru Adventure, guided by Jose Luis. The trip was flawless and the company was very professional. Jose knew a lot about the local traditions and customs and was fluent in English as well. He was more of a friend than a guide which we really appreciated. The whole experience was incredible and the highlight of the trrip was the lunch stop at a local restaurant in Urubamba town. We savoured some traditional Andean farm fresh food. A dream come true.
