Itinerary

Sacsayhuaman

Sacsayhuaman can be translated as ‘speckled falcon’ or ‘speckled head’. The last interpretation refers to the belief that the city of Cusco was set out in the form of a puma whose head was the hill of Sacsayhuaman. The origins are uncertain but the fortress is generally credited to the period of Inca Pachacutec (1450-1490), the Inca king who essentially founded the Inca Empire.

2 hours
Q'enqo

After Sacsayhuaman, your van will be waiting to continue with visits to Q’enko, Puca Pucara and Tambomachay also located near the X-zone, just outside the city, before returning to Cusco for a stop by the ‘Koricancha’ or Inca Temple of the Sun located beneath the Santo Domingo church and convent. We’ll round out the excursion with a visit to the local market, where inside the main building you find the food market with fresh fruits and vegetables, meat from rabbit to guinea pig to whole pigs, fish and seafood, groceries of all kinds and little food stands where ‘Mamá or ‘Jefe’ cooks a simple, but fresh and delicious menu for a few Soles.

2 hours
Cusco Cathedral

Juan is the best!

Published on Mar, 2024

Juan was our tour guide and he is the absolute best. He answered every one of our questions and was deeply knowledgeable. Taking this tour early in our trip was a fantastic idea because it gave us a lot of knowledge for the remainder of the trip. I would recommend Juan to everyone!

Wonderful tour of the city of Cusco

Published on Jan, 2020

We had the team pick us up from the airport and take us through the various archealogical sites. The knowledge of the sites and the information they provided was amazing. Thank you for an amazing time.

Excellent

We had a fantastic Cusco city Tour with them. Communication with them was so smooth. Their representative kept in touch with us throughout booking the tour. Our guide Manuel was great. Peru is once in a lifetime holiday experience and Andean adventures made it even better.. even more memorable.

It was a great tour. I enjoyed it...

It was a great tour. I enjoyed it. Juan? had a good knowledge of local areas/history and spoke great English. We really enjoyed it.

We were hesitant about booking this...

Published on Sep, 2017

We were hesitant about booking this tour, due to the fact that there were only five reviews in total. I am so glad we did! Erica, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and helpful. She picked us up from the hotel and clarified our itinerary. Usually tourists start at the bottom, in Cusco, and end up in Sacsayhuaman instead Erica reversed the order of the five destinations. This way we avoided the crowds.

Our five stops were all interesting. I just wish the powers that be would allow us to take photos. Cusco and probably the Peruvian government are very protective of their interior relics and do not allow any photos to be taken inside of buildings. So instead I purchased a booklet of postcards of the artwork of the Cathedral.

If you can ask for Erica, do so!!!!!
My favorite part of the tour was at the end when we asked Erica for a restaurant recommendation. We said we wanted to have lunch where she would take her family, NOT where tourists would go. I wish I had taken a picture of the menu so I can recommend that restaurant to everyone.
