See availability →A Cusco city tour in half a day with a professional guide: Qoricancha, Sacsayhuaman, Qenqo, Puca Pucara and Tambomachay, with shared transport from the Plaza de Armas.
The Cusco city tour is a half-day route that links the Inca temple at the heart of town with the ruins on the hills above it. It runs in a morning and an afternoon shift, and gathers at the Plaza de Armas by the fountain in the middle, where the guide introduces the day and stays with the group throughout. Shared transport carries you between the sites.
- Qoricancha, the Temple of the Sun and the Inca Empire's main religious center, topped today by the Santo Domingo Convent
- Sacsayhuaman, a fortress built of massive stones, above the city
- Qenqo, a ritual site of altars, tunnels underground and shaped rock
- Puca Pucara, where the Incas kept watch over the road and travelers rested
- Tambomachay, the Inca baths, with channels and fountains still carrying water
You finish at Regocijo Square or another nearby spot in the historic center. A professional local guide is with the group the whole way. Tips, the Qoricancha entrance and the Cusco tourist ticket are paid separately. It is not suitable for wheelchair users.
