The capital in Yucay gave me the center for all my visits. - My stay in a welcoming and safe capital in Yucay gave me what I most expected from Cusco and being able to visit its nearby archaeological remains.

The tour contained people with different tours an extra day or a day less and the guide was continuously confused about it. For the rest, it was really fun.</p>
