City Tour in Cusco: Five Inca Sites in One Afternoon
The City Tour in Cusco is an afternoon introduction to the Inca heritage of Cusco. In five hours you visit Qorikancha, the Temple of the Sun, and the Inca sites above the city: Sacsayhuaman, Qenqo, Puka Pukara and Tambomachay.
The afternoon departure gives you a free morning to rest after your flight, visit the Cathedral or explore the city on your own. The late-afternoon light is also perfect for photos, and you are back in the historic center by 6:00 PM.
