Cusco Highlights
Discover the magic of Cusco, the ancient capital of the Inca Empire and now the gateway to some of Peru’s most iconic sites. This vibrant city combines ancient Inca history with colonial charm, offering an immersive cultural experience.
In the center of Cusco, you’ll learn about and immerse yourself in the ancient Inca culture. The remote streets of this city are as the Incas built them. Take a moment to inspect them and breathe the air our ancestors made.
Discover the magical ruins of Sacsayhuaman, an Inca fortress. Explore the incredible and cultural streets of San Pedro Market. Cusco is a city where you can experience history in every corner.
Delight in the gastronomy of this great city. Cusco has a lot to offer when it comes to food. Visit the city’s best restaurants, located in the city center, which will offer you incredible views and unique moments to enjoy with your favorite Peruvian cuisine.
Stroll through the cobblestone streets, admire the architecture of the Qoricancha, and enjoy the vibrant local activities that take place during the peak times of the year. If you travel during these times, you’ll have the opportunity to see many street performances.
Explore the outskirts of the city and discover Tambomachay, Qenqo, and Puca Pucara, incredible places and archaeological sites that will make you feel like you’re in the ancient Inca culture. Learn about their history and engineering.
Feel and prepare for the altitude and acclimatize if you take one of our Cusco tour packages. Even if you feel sick the first few days, Cusco is a perfect place to acclimatize and prepare for your adventures. Drink coca tea, plenty of water, take walks around the city, and get plenty of rest. Also, try to avoid alcoholic beverages and cigarettes as much as possible. Visit Machu Picchu, the Wonder of the World, and take that classic photo.
What to Expect
Cusco is a city of contrasts, where modern comforts merge with ancient traditions. At 3,400 meters above sea level (11,152 feet), the air is more humid, so acclimatization is essential for travelers. The climate is changeable; if you travel during the rainy season, prepare for constant downpours by wearing a poncho or rain jacket. If you travel during the dry season, prepare for the cold and intense sun in the mornings, although it can often be just as cold in the shade, as can the nights.
The city is safe, welcoming, and tourist-friendly, with a wide range of accommodations. Our Cusco Tour Packages offer accommodations from 2 stars to more. Walk at night through the incredible streets of Cusco and visit the central Plaza de Armas and its cathedral. The illuminations at night are beautiful.
Places to Visit
- Sacsayhuaman: Incredible Inca stone fortress with panoramic views of the city, located just outside of Cusco (10 minutes).
- Qorikancha and Church of Santo Domingo: Sacred Inca Site, transformed into a colonial church, it is said that before the Qoricancha was only made of gold.
- Plaza de Armas: The heart of the city, with cafes, two enormous churches you can visit, and colonial architecture. It also features the best restaurants and plenty of photo ops.
- San Blas Neighborhood: A bohemian district known for its art, scenery, and variety of handicrafts. Don’t forget to visit the market if you’re here; you’ll find plenty of food and a variety of items at an affordable price.
- San Pedro Market: An authentic display of Cusco’s flavors, textiles, and local products, located very close to the Plaza de Armas, this is a must-see.
- Stone of the Twelve Angles: A magnificent example of Inca masonry in the historic center, take an iconic photo at this spot.
Recomendations
- Book in advance: During high season (May – September), any tour or excursion, even hotels, fill up quickly. Make sure you book your spot, especially to Machu Picchu, months in advance.
- Proper acclimatization: If you are taking a hike like Humantay Lake, Rainbow Mountain or some Machu Picchu hiking tours like Salkantay Trek or Inca Trail, acclimatizing for 2 – 3 days in Cusco is essential, avoid altitude sickness on your hike, in our Cusco tour packages we will put the hikes as the last day so that you are more acclimatized.
- Prepare clothing for the weather: The days are warm and sunny, but the nights tend to be cold, especially during the dry season. Preparing with layered clothing is the best recommendation we can give you.
- Learn basic Spanish phrases: Enhance your local experience and demonstrate respect. Learn common phrases to help you organize anything and stay connected.
Pro Tips
- Exchange currency at authorized exchange offices; some offer better exchange rates.
- Try local dishes, don’t be afraid to stick to the basics—lomo saltado, guinea pig, alpaca. Peru has a great gastronomy on offer in every city.
- Visit museums with a tourist ticket, which also gives access to archaeological sites.
- Wake up early to enjoy better lighting and visit your favorite places with fewer people.
- In Peru, tap water is not drinkable, so remember to buy your own water or boil it before drinking it.
