What To Expect
Enjoy a guided tour of the charming city of Cusco, which was the capital of the Inca Empire. The tour starts with a visit to Santo Domingo convent, a large Renaissance-baroque complex, which was built over the Inca Coricancha temple. It was one of the most important temples consecrated to the worship of the sun, and its foundations are still prominent at the base of the convent.Then, you will visit the cathedral in the main square and head to the hills above Cusco to visit the remains of the fortress of Sacsayhuaman, whose imposing ramparts offer a stunning panoramic view of the city. Admire the ruins of the temple and amphitheatre of Qenqo, where the Incas are believed to have practiced agricultural rituals, and continue to Puka Pukara ("Red fortress" in Quechua), an Inca military complex located on a prominent hill. The tour ends with a visit to Tambomachay.
