Cusco

Cusco is a must-see! It is one of the most beautiful cities in the world, the historical capital of Peru, the archaeological capital of the Americas and the navel of the world. A place full of history and mysticism, where culture is still alive.

The city of Cusco, Cuzco or Qosqo in Quechua, is the perfect place to travel or vacation with family, friends or your partner. It offers countless attractions and a wide range of tourist activities, such as: gastronomy and Peruvian cooking classes, short hikes, mountain biking, scenic tours, city walks, soft adventure, cultural and mystical tours, private transport and guides recommended by Toptur Peru, and new routes and Inca trails.

This is truly a special place, and there are so many reasons to visit Cusco: not only to witness and admire the wealth of amazing architecture and archaeology found throughout the city and in the surrounding mountains, but also to enjoy the spectacular landscapes it offers, such as:

The Sacred Valley, the South Valley of Cusco, the train journey to Machu Picchu, the Rainbow Mountain and Apu Ausangate, the Apurímac canyon, Humantay Lake and Apu Salkantay.

Cusco is full of colonial, pre-Columbian and Inca buildings, temples, fortresses, churches and busy streets, all side by side; it is a delight for the senses.

And that’s not all! Besides the great warmth of its people, Cusco offers valuable, varied and delicious Peruvian food recognized worldwide, as well as first-class hotels and accommodation, excellent restaurants and some of the finest artisan shops and jewelry.
