Cusco

Chinchero
8:40 AM: After a 40-minute drive from Cusco, we arrive at the traditional town of Chinchero. Here, we’ll visit a local family who keeps the ancient weaving tradition alive.

Moray
10:30 AM: During the Inca period, Moray was likely one of the most important agricultural research centers. Here, the Incas experimented with different crops at varying altitudes. The unique layout of its circular terraces creates a remarkable range of microclimates—capturing the higher temperatures at the center and gradually cooling toward the outer levels. This ingenious design allowed the Incas to study and adapt crops for different regions of their vast empire

Salinas de Maras
