Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Valencia Travel - Day Tours, Portal de Panes 123 C.C Ruisenores Oficina 306-307, Cusco 08000 Peru
We will pick you up from your hotel and take our private transport to the ranch near Qenko. At the ranch, we will get you set up with our horses and meet the horsemen, who will be with you for the whole trek. On leaving the ranch, we take you to the ruins of Qenko. From here, you will get a wonderful view of the ruins but if you would like to visit them properly. Then, you will need the Cusco tourist ticket (the horsemen can look after the horses while you explore). From Qenko, we will follow a small dirt path alongside the road up to the next site, Puca Pucara. The name translates to "The Red Gate" and is named due to the site's prior function as the controlled entrance into Cusco during the Incan period. We then continue on to Tambomachay, which was something of an Incan "bath house” and was also a place of worship to water. From Tambomachay, we pass through a eucalyptus forest on the way to our final destination of Sacsayhuaman, which is where the Incas worshiped light. We end our tour at Saqsayhuaman so you can take as much time as you want to explore this spectacular site.
Duration: 4 hours
