Tour Details

The Southern Valley of Cusco is one of the favorite destinations. This tour will take you to know more about the history of the Incas and how they used this valley for their use.

This tour is ideal for lovers of Inca history. Together with our guide you will learn more about the archaeological sites of Tipon, Pikillacta and the charming town of Andahuaylillas.

It is a perfect combination of nature, culture and history in three different stages. The Pre-Inca, Inca and Colonial.

Tipon

Located a few hours from Cusco, this site is made up of agricultural terraces, stone stairs and stone canals. This place shows more of the Inca technology, presents aqueduct systems used for irrigation of its platforms.

Pikillacta

Built by the Wari culture, a culture prior to that of the Incas. It is considered one of the best preserved places. It has a ceremonial center, agricultural terraces and walls up to 7 meters high.
