Sacred Valley of the Incas, Pisac & Ollantaytambo

Highlights / General details

The Sacred Valley of the Incas welcomes us every day. On the way we will stop at Awanacancha, a place where we will be able to see and feed Andean camelids such as llamas and alpacas, and where the locals will show us their traditional weaving and dyeing techniques. We will then reach the traditional Pisac Market, where we will have free time to tour it and by handicrafts. If you want to taste something traditional, go to the wood ovens and try the bread and empanadas. We will have lunch in a local restaurant.

In the afternoon, we will head for Ollantaytambo, a picturesque town which has been inhabited non-stop since the Inca times, where we will visit the temple with the same name, used as a fortress during the Inca resistance and where we will be able to get collection snapshots. At the right time, we will go back to our hotel in Cusco or in the Sacred Valley.
