Description

Description

We will leave Cusco and begin the tour. The first stop will be Tipón, 27 kilometers southeast of Cusco. This site has a series of well-preserved terraces destined to farming, which we will have time to traverse and take pictures.


Then, we will pass by Pikillaqta, place that has more than a thousand constructions, like temples, colcas and streets with buildings up to 4 floors, preserved from the Wari Empire. Finally, we will visit Andahuaylillas, which the main tourist attraction is the catholic temple (entry ticket not included), considered the Sistine Chapel of Cusco. We will go back in time to observe its decoration and murals of the 17th and 18th centuries maintained in the building. We will have also the possibility to visit the Ritos Andinos Museum (optional visit, entry ticket not included).


After that, we will take our transportation again to go back to Cusco, getting to the downtown and completing the 5 and a half hours that last the tour.


*Entry tickets prices subject to change without previous notice.


About the Cusco tourist ticket


The tourist ticket allows you the access to the different places of interest in Cusco. We recommend you to buy it before the beginning of your activity, at Palacio Kusikancha, Calle Maruri 340, Cusco, to expedite the entrance time and take advantage of the time visiting the places, or you can buy it at the first visiting site of your itinerary, though. There are two types:


  • Full tourist ticket:
    • Peruvians: S/. 70 per person.
    • International visitors: S/. 130 per person.
  • Partial tourist ticket:
    • Peruvians: S/. 40 per person.
    • International visitors: S/. 70 per person.


*The payment has to be in cash, with soles.


The full tourist ticket is valid for all the places in the three circuits available, in a period of 10 days, while the partial tourist ticket is valid for only one of the three circuits, in a period of one or two days, depending on the circuit. To see the detail of the places included in every circuit, visit the tourist ticket site.
