Surrounded by Andean peaks and ancient Inca sites, Cusco and the Sacred Valley offer one of Peru's most fascinating and rewarding journeys.
Cusco and the Sacred Valley form the cultural heart of the Peruvian Andes, where ancient stone settlements, traditional mountain communities and spectacular landscapes create one of South America's most rewarding destinations. Once the centre of the Inca Empire, the region combines remarkable history with dramatic scenery, vibrant culture and a strong sense of place that remains deeply rooted in everyday life.
Cusco itself is a city of striking contrasts, where Inca foundations support colonial buildings and lively plazas sit beneath surrounding mountain peaks. Beyond the city, the Sacred Valley unfolds through fertile valleys, rivers and villages that have changed little over generations, offering a gentler pace and some of Peru's most beautiful scenery.
Ancient sites such as Ollantaytambo, Pisac and Moray provide fascinating insights into the ingenuity of the Inca civilisation, while local markets, artisan traditions and Andean cuisine add further depth to the experience. Luxury lodges, restored haciendas and boutique hotels provide exceptional bases for exploring a region that continues to captivate travellers from around the world.
