Overview
Sacred Valley
Just a one hour drive from Cusco, shadowed beneath the emerald Andean peaks lies the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Here, you’ll find beautiful villages that modernity has barely touched as well as Inca sites, such as those near Pisac and Ollantaytambo and Chinchero.
Pisac
The mountain town of Pisac is famous for two things: its magnificent Inca site and its colorful artisan market. Start by exploring the Inca citadel, which sits on a plateau above sweeping agricultural terraces. At the top of the site is the Sun Temple, which contains an abstract yet significant carved rock hitching post; this is thought to be symbolically tied to the sun as it journeys across the sky. Back in town, Pisaq’s artisan market happens daily, but peaks on Sundays, when the selection of weaved blankets, knitted scarves, cozy alpaca jumpers, ceramics and other traditional products is particularly wide ranging.
Chinchero
Chinchero’s Sunday market was originally set-up so that people living in the valley and the surrounding hills could trade produce. No longer is it just a local affair. Visitors now come from far to browse for handicrafts produced by the indigenous weaving community here. Chinchero’s weavers are artisans in the truest sense; they harvest wool, produce their own natural dyes and hand weave their textiles and clothes .
Ollantaytambo
Named after the Inca chief Ollanta, this town is now the kick-off point for the Inca Trail. But even if you aren’t hiking the world famous route, Ollantaytambo’s cluster of well-preserved Inca site and relics form an attraction in their own right. The town retains its original Inca walls and street grid, and the formidable fortress here was one of the last Inca bastions to withstand the attacking Spanish.
Moray
This stepped, amphitheater-like pits are believed to have been used by the Incas to experiment with groundbreaking agricultural methods. Because of the different elevations, the temperatures between each layer of the pit can vary by several degrees. These distinct microclimates allow different types of vegetables and cereals to grow, which couldn’t otherwise survive in the harsh Andean environment.
Duration: 7 hours.

An Amazing & Educational Experience
The one-day zip-lining and ATV tour was amazing! It was the perfect combination of education and adventure. Prior to visiting Peru, we found Pumadventures online and, upon landing in Cusco in the late afternoon, we contacted the company who was able to pull together a day tour for the next day. So lucky that they were able to connect us with a driver and tour guide that were both very friendly and very knowledgable. Edgar in particular was incredible. Would highly recommend for anyone visiting Cusco!
