Itinerary
Pick-up from the hotel and guided visit to three important locations. We start with the famous “Sistine Chapel of America” in Andahuaylillas, where we will take a stroll around its Main Square, adorned with coral trees (“pisonay”) and palm trees. We then continue to Tipón, a national archaeological complex located east of the city of Cusco. This site stands out for its impressive irrigation system, which still serves agriculture today, with water sourced from spring channels.
To conclude, we will visit the Pikillacta Archaeological Complex, which covers an area of 3,421 hectares (8,453 acres) and is located in the province of Quispicanchis, about 32 km (20 miles) east of Cusco. On the way, you will enjoy a beautiful view of the Hacarpay Lagoon.
