Cusco tours & vacations

How 'bout an adventure in the ancient Inca capital?

Cusco might be the gateway to the mother of all Inca ruins (yep, Machu Picchu), but this high-altitude city has plenty more to explore. After catching your breath, drop by San Pedro market to snack on ice cream beans, sip purple corn tea and maybe try Andean delicacies like cuy (guinea pig). Wander the maze of cobbled alleyways and historic squares, taking in the sights and sounds of daily life. Or head north to connect with Indigenous communities of the Sacred Valley.
