Machu Picchu is consistently the #1 travel destination in the world, why? The answer is simple: the experience is fascinating and unique.
You're not just driving up to the overlook, getting out of the car, and taking some pictures; you are traveling deep into South America, into the heart of the Andes. Stumbling upon the lost city of the Incas is only part of the journey.
Planning a trip to Machu Picchu is a dream for many people, but the planning can be a bit overwhelming. We've created some sample itineraries to give you a starting point for planning, and we're here to help with whatever you need. From booking hotels or airport transfers, let FLY CUSCO PERU TRAVEL AGENCY take care of all your logistics. They cover routes we've found to work particularly well and feature some of our favorite places to stay.
The former capital of the mighty Inca empire, the Peruvian city of Cusco, is a fabulous base from which to explore fascinating archaeological and historical sites, as well as enjoy time in nature. While the city has much to be proud of, much of the area's charm can be found beyond the city limits.
Here are some of the best day trips to do from Cusco for a fabulous Peruvian adventure.

People visit Cusco, they tend to arrive directly in Machu Picchu, one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. But, there are many other very important archaeological sites in and around the city that were also significant during the Inca empire. Travel with us on this exciting journey to the Sacred Valley of the Incas to visit key sites during the reign of the ancient civilization.
On this day, you can expect to stop at Ollantaytambo, the archaeological site and colorful market of Pisac, and the Andean Textile Center. We will stop at some fantastic viewpoints to witness the beauty of the Andean mountain and the impressive landscape of the valley.

HIGHLIGHTS:
In the morning we will pick you up from your hotel between 7:50 to 8:00 a.m., then we will travel on our tourist transport to the Sacred Valley of the Incas. The first visit will be the Pisac Archaeological Park and then we will visit the Pisac typical native market where we will have the opportunity to appreciate the different forms of commerce and crafts. Then our next stop will be in Urubamba, traveling along the banks of the Vilcanota River, in coordination with the guide, we will have a buffet lunch. After lunch in the afternoon, we will visit the Fortress of Ollantaytambo, there we will have the opportunity to walk through the town and get an idea on how this archaeological, religious and cultural center was during the Inca Empire. On the way back to Cusco we will make a stop in the town of Chinchero, where we will observe the process of alpaca wool. At the end of the excursion we will return to Cusco.
Pisac: It is made up of groups of archaeological remains, among which platforms, aqueducts, roads associated with walls and portals, channeled watercourses, cemeteries and bridges stand out.
Ollantaytambo: It was built during the Inca era as a fortified area that includes a temple, platforms and an urban sector. Two sectors can be distinguished: one called “Araqama Ayllu”, an area linked to worship and religion; and the second “Qosqo Ayllu”, a complex dedicated to housing.
Chinchero: In the workshops of the artisan associations, the entire weaving process is exhibited daily, from the washing of the wool to the final product, in which one can witness the spinning, dyeing and weaving techniques that are still practiced by the people of Chinchilla.
