Enjoy Machu Picchu and other great destination in Cusco!
Our country is one of the top tourism destinations worldwide. Both social media and renowned travel writers have ample agreement on this. The lost sanctuary of the Incas, Machu Picchu, is a truly unforgettable experience. But there is much more: the Inca Trails (Classic 4-Day, the Short 2-Day), splendid Humantay Lagoon and so on.
Machu Picchu is a premium destination in the world. Regarding the area of its location, it was chosen by Inca royals for many reasons: religious, ecological, safety, reinvigorating body and mind. The citadel is at the intersection of 4 sacred mountains, which according to Inca beliefs, made it a central point of spiritual energies. The site stands in the middle of a magnificent subtropical valley, with warm weather, relaxing environment and priceless views. It was built on the edge of the rain forest, mostly hidden for security reasons (the Spanish invaders never found it). The entire place is awash in tranquility and natural energy currents. Amazing private tours are also available.

Enjoy your 2019 Christmas holidays in Cusco
We are a largely Christian nation, the Holidays have a whole cultural tradition here. In the Cusco region, people get ready mainly on the 24th of December: they go shopping for presents, tipping gets more common (also find out about tipping uses in Peru), there are many social gatherings for lunch. At night, families get together, exchange gifts and at 12:00 everybody wishes Merry Christmas, in remembrance of Jesus’ Nativity, then a special dinner is served.
We are a country of rich gastronomy, now becoming well-known worldwide. In most cases, the typical dinner is turkey meat with salad (a minority of families will choose pork instead), champagne for drinking. Also, hot chocolate is served everywhere. Typical Peruvian fruits are included many times.
