City Tour and nearby ruins of Cusco (without entrance fee)

This tour visits the oldest continuously inhabited city in the Western Hemisphere.

It includes not only the major landmarks of Cusco such as the Cathedral, Santo Domingo Church and the Plaza de Armas, but also the nearby ruins of Kenko, Puca-pucara, Tambomachay and the Sacsayhuaman Fortress, an imposing example of Inca military architecture; once the center of the Inca civilization, it was built using colossal limestone blocks using a variety of interlocking shapes.

The estimated weight of some stones is over 120 tons.

Visitors are still wondering how it was constructed.

Modern Cusco is a delightful combination of Inca and colonial architecture.

The tour starts in the afternoon and takes 3 1/2 hours
