At an altitude of 11,000 feet above sea level, Cuzco is the gateway to the major Inca sites in the Sacred Valley and the mountain citadel of Machu Picchu. Upon arrival, we begin the drive into the picturesque Sacred Valley of the Incas, with a stop at the Wayra Ranch just outside of Urubamba. Here, a delicious barbecue lunch awaits you on the garden view terrace. Witness a lively Peruvian Paso horse demonstration, performed by “Chalanes” on horseback, dressed in their finest linen outfits. This authentic performance is a wonderful display of coordination, discipline and passion that sheds light on the strong Spanish influence in the highlands. Next, we arrive at our spectacular resort hotel in the Sacred Valley. Tonight, enjoy a Peruvian à la carte dinner at the hotel’s restaurant – a perfect opportunity to discover new flavors Overnight: Tambo del Inka, a Luxury Collection Resort & Spa, Sacred Valley* Meals: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner DAY 4, Sunday - Terraces of Moray, Saltpans of Maras At the unique archaeological site of Moray, in the southern highlands, view one of the most extraordinary examples of Inca landscaping. Intriguing agricultural terraces were built here that gradually reduce in size as they descend into a natural depression formed by the mountainside. Lunch at a nearby restaurant, with incredible views over the ruins, a comfortable and tranquil retreat created by one of Peru’s leading chefs. Later, we visit the Saltpans of Maras, where salt is still produced using the same methods as in the pre-Inca period. You’ll have leisure time at the hotel to enjoy the ambience and the peaceful spa.

Descending to the rustic Andean village of Pisac, we follow the crowds to the traditional Indian market where stalls extend from the main plaza into the inclined streets leading to the foot of the mountain. Hundreds of vendors appear, with stalls engulfing the streets in a blanket of vivid colored crafts from hand-knit woolens to trinkets and alpaca clothing. Lunch at a farmhouse restaurant in the Sacred Valley. Afterwards, we visit the ruins of the Incan fortress in Ollantaytambo, last stand of the Incas in their defense against the Spanish conquistadors. This site, abandoned before completion, offered archaeologists a glimpse into the sophisticated engineering of the Incas. At the Ollantaytambo train station, we board the Vistadome train that travels along the scenic Urubamba River to Aguas Calientes, with spectacular panoramic views of the countryside. We'll check in to our hotel at the foot of Machu Picchu in a Garden of Eden setting amid orchids, waterfalls and hummingbirds.

View the majestic wonders of this 15th century retreat, abandoned nearly 100 years later with the arrival of the conquistadors. See the highlights of the site including the imposing Temple of the Sun, the House of the Priest, the Sacred Plaza and the intricately carved rock likely used as a sundial by the ancient Incas. The images of this glorious monument to a lost civilization will truly be a lifelong memory. The rest of the day is yours. Perhaps re-visit the citadel, hike on your own or just relax and surround yourself with the magic and tranquility.
