“Die Inkaanlage ist überwältigend, die Landschaft tief beeindruckend. Sehr intensive beruhigende Stimmung herrscht im Gesamten Umfeld, weit an von jeglicher Zivilisation. Wer hier gelebt hat, musste weit laufen um Wasser zu holen, wurde belohnt mit einer unberührten Natur und einer enormen Ruhe. Unser Guide Carlos hat begleitet als wären wir seine Familie, er hat die Lebensweise ind die Achtung der Natur der Inkas erklärt und immer wieder Pachamama gerufen. Wie haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Wer diesen zrek nicht geht, versäumt ein eindrucksvolles Erlebnis Martin”

3.Tour to the Waqrapukara Archaeological Complex from Cusco

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 10 reviews · 10 to 12 hours (approx.) · from $90

Early trip from Cusco to Waqrapukara with an official guide, breakfast and lunch, a hike to the fortress, condors, canyon views, and the Pomacanchi lagoon.

“Visiting the Waqrapukara complex and the hike. The views were amazing. The 4 to 4.5 hour mini van ride each way was very rough as there was 2 hours of it on windy dusty roads. No heater in the morning and no air conditioning in the afternoon made for an unpleasant ride. Their idea of air conditioning is too open a window and when you are at the back it makes no difference all you get is dust. I was also the only person there to speak English, the guide had very limited English and didn't even attempt to explain any of the history to me. If you speak Spanish…”

★★★★★★★★★★3.5 · 8 reviews · 1 day · from $50

Hike to Waqra Pukara for views over Pomacanchi Lagoon and a guided tour of the horn-shaped Andean fortress, with breakfast and lunch.

“Horrible communication and experience. Was not picked up by the tour group and getting in contact with them to work through it the day of was a nightmare. They wasted a whole day of my trip. Hopefully it was just a misunderstanding and a one off experience, but I would not risk booking with this group. I recommend booking with a different company.”
