Cusco or Cuzco in Quechua written (qosqo) is a city in southeastern Perú, near the Urubamba Valley (Sacred Valley) of the Andes mountain range. It is the capital of the Cusco Region as well as the Cusco Province. The city has a population of 348,935 which is triple the figure of 20 years ago. Located on the eastern end of the Knot of Cusco, its altitude is around 3,300 m (10,800 ft). Cusco is the historic capital of the Inca Empire and was declared a World Heritage Site in 1983 by UNESCO. It is a major tourist destination and receives almost a million visitors a year. It is designated as the Historical Capital of Peru by the Constitution of Perú.
The name Cusco is derived from the Quechua phrase "qusqu wanka" which means "rock of the owl".

Tour Description

An incredible mixture of Inca and Spanish-style buildings creates an air of mystery difficult to take in when you first come to the 'Archaeological Capital of South America'. You will see that the two cultures are inextricably interwoven: religion, language, customs, mentality and even dreams. This tour is a must-do when visiting Cusco and to miss it means you simply haven't been here!!!
