This exclusive Cusco city tour begins at the iconic Plaza San Cristóbal, perched on a hill offering one of the most impressive panoramic views of the city. From this vantage point, you can admire the majesty of the ancient capital of the Inca Empire, with its colonial rooftops, churches, and cobblestone streets that tell centuries-old stories. Next, we head to the vibrant San Pedro Market, a lively, colorful, and aromatic place. In this traditional market, we'll immerse ourselves in the authentic flavors of Cusco, exploring stalls selling fruits, breads, herbs, handicrafts, and other regional products that supply much of the city. It's the perfect opportunity to experience the daily life of the Cusqueños and discover the richness of Andean ingredients. We continue to the majestic Temple of Qorikancha, once the empire's most important religious center, dedicated to the sun god, Inti. Its original splendor can still be felt in the finely carved stone walls, once covered in gold leaf. Built on its foundations stands the Convent of Santo Domingo, a stunning example of the fusion of cultures. The tour continues to the traditional San Blas district, known as the artisans' quarter. We stroll through its narrow streets until we reach Hatun Rumiyoc Street, home to the Inca Roca Palace, now the Archbishops' Palace. Here, we'll pause to admire the famous Twelve-Angled Stone, a symbol of Inca architectural perfection. We conclude our journey in the Main Square, the heart of Cusco, with a visit to the imposing Cathedral. This sacred site houses priceless colonial works of art and is considered one of the most important churches in South America. Then, return to your hotel.
