Peruways runs guided tours through the Sacred Valley, the Urubamba River corridor between Cusco and Machu Picchu. The valley holds the agricultural heartland of the former Inca empire and is a near-mandatory stop on any Peru itinerary.
Tours start in Cusco, drop into the valley through Chinchero (worth a stop for weaving cooperatives and the Sunday market), and work through the main archaeological sites: Pisac for the hilltop ruins and artisan market, and Ollantaytambo for the terraced fortress and still-functioning Inca street grid.
Smaller sites extend the day — the circular agricultural terraces at Moray, the salt pans at Maras, and village workshops in weaving and pottery.
Guides are Ministry of Culture-licensed and cover the archaeology, the farming history, and the modern-day village economy. Transfers, entry tickets, and lunch at a local restaurant are included.
