Description

Do you want to make the most of your time in Cusco?

Cusco is considered one of the most important cities in Peru. It is the center of the Inca Empire, a World Cultural Heritage Site. It is one of the most visited places today, due to the number of important archaeological remains and tourist attractions, with Inca walls, colorful costumes, colonial churches built on Inca palaces, legendary Inca roads and all the beauty of a glorious past that envelops visitors who come to Cusco. With a great diversity of customs and traditions, Cusco still preserves its Inca walls and stone-floored streets that blend with colonial architecture and this makes Cusco one of the most famous and recommended “city tours” on your visit to Cusco.
