Another fascinating alternative to reach the marvelous architectural complex of Machu Picchu is the ‘Huchuy Qosqo Connection Machu Picchu Tour,’ which, for many, is the main objective of visiting Peru. In this alternate route, we’ll pass through high Andean villages, the intriguing archaeological center of Huchuy Qosqo (small village) featuring various stone and clay constructions, possibly the last dwelling place of Inca Wiracocha. We’ll traverse the sacred valley of the Incas, marveling at its impressive landscapes adorned with abundant flora and fauna typical of Cusco.
