Sacred Valley Tour – Full-Day from Cusco: Why Go

Sacred Valley Tour – Full-Day from Cusco

The Sacred Valley of the Incas is one of the most beautiful and culturally rich regions in Peru. Just a short drive from Cusco, this fertile valley is dotted with traditional villages, colorful markets, and impressive Inca ruins.

The One-Day Sacred Valley Tour combines stunning landscapes, fascinating history, and local culture — a perfect introduction to life in the Andes. Visit the traditional market of Pisac, enjoy a typical lunch in Urubamba, explore the impressive fortress of Ollantaytambo, and discover the textile traditions of Chinchero.

This is one of Cusco’s most popular and rewarding day trips.

What to Expect

Your day begins with a scenic drive through the winding roads of the Andes, offering sweeping views of the Urubamba River Valley.

The first stop is Pisac, famous for its vibrant handicraft market and Inca ruins perched high above the village. Wander through the stalls filled with textiles, ceramics, and silver jewelry, and enjoy the lively atmosphere.

Continue to Urubamba, the heart of the Sacred Valley, where you’ll enjoy a buffet lunch featuring local specialties. After lunch we continue to Ollantaytambo, one of the best-preserved Inca towns. Climb the terraces of its fortress and learn about its strategic importance during Inca times, and see the amazing old Inca walls in town.

On the return journey to Cusco, stop at Chinchero, a charming village known for its traditional weaving and colonial church. Watch a local textile demonstration and learn how natural dyes are made from plants and minerals.
