A fantastic intro with many glimpses around the Sacred Valley - A great, long day to explore the Sacred Valley around Cusco, and a reasonable level of activity on my first day in the area, while adjusting to the high altitude. Some of the archaeological sites call for more climbing than others, but the more demanding parts are optional (highly recommended but you can definitely take a lot of the views and history in even if you opt out of some of the climbing!). Our guide provided tons of history, trivia and pictures for reference. Gorgeous drive. The lunch buffet included was surprisingly fantastic, tons of vegetarian options! I personally enjoyed the quick visits to a metalsmithing workshop and a women's traditional weaving collective, but I think our small tour group would have preferred to skip the stops that basically just asked us to spend more money on souvenirs.
