The ultimate Sacred Valley experience — a VIP full day tour that goes beyond the standard route. Starting at 6:00 AM, we visit Chinchero first to avoid the crowds, experience a live alpaca textile demonstration, explore the Inca ruins and colonial church, then continue through Maras, Moray, Ollantaytambo, and end at the magnificent Pisac archaeological site before returning to Cusco.
The Sacred Valley (Valle Sagrado de los Incas) stretches between Pisac and Ollantaytambo along the Urubamba River — the most fertile and historically significant valley in the entire Inca Empire. At a lower altitude than Cusco (2,700–3,000m vs 3,400m), it’s also the perfect way to acclimatize while immersing yourself in Inca history and living Andean culture.
Chinchero is known as the «cradle of the rainbow» and sits at 3,762m above sea level. It is world-famous for its living textile culture — dozens of textile centers where local women in traditional clothing demonstrate the ancient techniques of spinning, natural dyeing with plants and insects, and backstrap loom weaving. This is not a tourist show — it is a living cultural tradition passed down for centuries.
With one of our expert certified guides, you’ll experience six distinct stops across the full breadth of the Sacred Valley — the most complete Sacred Valley tour available from Cusco.
