Short of time and yet want to get off the beaten track? Explore the Sacred Valley far from the tourist trail!

Our ONE day trips are short hikes within the Sacred Valley and within several hours of Cusco . We travel by public transport and do things in a way that means you have far from a “normal” tourist experience!

These are excellent options for people who are not fit or don't want to go camping BUT do want to experience a little of the "real" Peru.

Many of these tours can be linked to make two or three day tours in order to fully explore the Sacred Valley . If you choose to do this travelling times will be reduced. If you “link” tours accomodation and meals will be at your own cost and can be discussed further at the time of booking.

These are off the beaten track alternatives for visiting the Sacred Valley and around Cusco. For a standard, all included package, please see our Visit Cusco Packages.

Please note:

  • The walking times cited in these intineraries are approximate, and are for a person of average fitness. They will vary depending on the group and the guide reserves the right to change the itinerary according to the group's abilities.
  • These tours incorporate public transport, and use of local facilities. Things change, or may not go to plan. This is all part of the adventure!
  • If you would like to use PRIVATE transport, this can be easily arranged for you at extra cost.

How do you go from where you are to where you want to be? I think you have to have an enthusiasm for life. You have to have a dream, a goal and you have to be willing to work for it. Jim Valvano
