Cusco, the Imperial city of the Incas, was developed as a complex urban center with distinct religious and administrative functions perfectly defined, distributed and organized.

Peru's Inca Imperial city and gateway to Machu Picchu was created as a religious and government center. Stunning destinations and examples of fine engineering by Inca stonemasons can be seen in Choquequirao, Saysayhuamán, Kenko, Tambomachay, Ollantaytambo, and Machu Picchu — the Inca jewel built with the wisdom of the ancient Peruvians in an ecological environment.

This precise and careful urban planning makes Cusco uniquely accessible for slow walkers and persons traveling with wheelchairs, walkers and canes. Also experience the Amazon rainforest and its indigenous people, their customs and culture.
