Immerse yourself in the ancestral magic of the Andes with our private sacred valley cusco tours. Crafted exclusively for discerning travelers seeking comfort, privacy, and authenticity, this bespoke 7-day journey allows you to explore the legacy of the Inca Empire at your own pace, completely away from the crowds.
Spanning over a week, this fully personalized journey transforms a standard vacation into a deeply immersive, worry-free experience. While most travelers rush through on crowded tour buses, you will experience the Andes with unparalleled exclusivity.
Upon your arrival at Cusco Airport, your private host will warmly welcome you and accompany you to your comfortable private vehicle. Rather than heading directly to the city, you’ll begin your journey toward the Sacred Valley of the Incas, allowing your body to acclimate naturally while enjoying breathtaking Andean landscapes. On the way, you’ll stop at the traditional village of Chinchero, where local artisans will introduce you to the ancient art of Andean weaving. Learn how natural dyes are extracted from native plants and minerals, discover the symbolism behind each textile design, and witness techniques preserved for centuries. After this enriching cultural experience, continue to your carefully selected hotel in the Sacred Valley, where the peaceful surroundings and lower altitude provide the perfect setting to relax before beginning your Peruvian adventure.
After breakfast, your private guide and driver will meet you at your hotel for an exclusive journey to Ollantaytambo, one of the last living Inca towns. Before exploring the archaeological sanctuary, you’ll enjoy an authentic Pachamanca, a traditional Andean feast prepared beneath the earth using hot volcanic stones. This ancient culinary ritual is much more than a meal—it’s a celebration of Pachamama (Mother Earth) and Andean culture. Following lunch, your private guide will lead you through the impressive archaeological complex of Ollantaytambo, explaining its military, religious and astronomical importance. Afterwards, stroll through the original Inca streets, where centuries-old stone walls, flowing water channels and local life remain beautifully preserved. Return privately to your hotel in the Sacred Valley.
This morning, your private guide and driver will pick you up from your hotel for an exciting ATV adventure through the Sacred Valley. Ride across spectacular Andean landscapes toward the fascinating circular terraces of Moray, believed to have served as an Inca agricultural research center. Continue through scenic mountain trails before arriving at one of Peru’s most iconic sites. Following your adventure, enjoy a delicious buffet lunch featuring Peruvian and Andean specialties in the heart of the Sacred Valley. After lunch, return comfortably to your hotel and enjoy the remainder of the afternoon at leisure.
After breakfast, your private driver will transfer you to Ollantaytambo Train Station, where you’ll board the exclusive PeruRail Observatory Train.
Sit back and admire spectacular views through panoramic windows as you travel alongside the Urubamba River toward Machu Picchu Pueblo. Upon arrival, your private guide will welcome you at the station and escort you to your hotel.
The remainder of the day is yours to enjoy at your own pace. Wander through the charming streets of Aguas Calientes, visit the Butterfly Sanctuary, relax in the hot springs, explore local cafés or simply soak in the atmosphere of this unique mountain village. Your guide will gladly provide personalized recommendations according to your interests.
Today is the highlight of your journey. At the scheduled time, your private guide will accompany you aboard the shuttle bus to the Historic Sanctuary of Machu Picchu.
Unlike standard group tours, this experience is entirely private, allowing you to explore the citadel at your own pace. Your guide will tailor the visit to your interests while revealing the history, engineering, spirituality and mysteries surrounding one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Take your time to admire the breathtaking scenery, capture unforgettable photographs and fully appreciate this extraordinary place without feeling rushed.
After your visit, return to Aguas Calientes for lunch at your leisure before boarding the panoramic Vistadome Train back to Ollantaytambo. Upon arrival, your private driver will be waiting to transfer you comfortably to your hotel in Cusco.
After breakfast, we will embark on a journey to discover the authentic spirit of Andean culture. Our day begins at Manos de la Comunidad, where we will explore the fascinating world of llamas and alpacas, animals deeply rooted in the history and traditions of the Andes. We will then continue to Huayllarcocha, where we will share meaningful moments with local women who will introduce us to the traditional art of raising and caring for these gentle animals. Accompanied by their caretakers, we will enjoy a charming walk alongside the alpacas, surrounded by breathtaking Andean landscapes that invite us to slow down, reconnect with nature, and appreciate the peaceful rhythm of rural life.
Our experience continues with an approximately one-and-a-half-hour hike along scenic trails surrounded by nature, leading us to a beautiful setting where a special Andean picnic awaits. Here, we will savor delicious local snacks and traditional dishes accompanied by live Andean music, creating a warm and memorable atmosphere where regional flavors, captivating melodies, and the beauty of the landscape come together. It is an opportunity to connect with local traditions and experience the Andes beyond their archaeological wonders, discovering the region through its customs, cuisine, and the genuine warmth of its people.
In the afternoon, we will continue to Sacsayhuamán, an extraordinary testament to the architectural mastery of the Incas. As we explore its monumental stone walls, we will uncover fascinating stories of this ancient civilization while enjoying magnificent views of Cusco and the surrounding mountains. Our journey concludes at Qorikancha, the legendary Temple of the Sun, one of the most important religious sanctuaries of the Inca Empire, where the precision of ancestral architecture intertwines with the history of the Spanish colonial period. It is the perfect ending to a day that brings together nature, living traditions, and the remarkable heritage of the Andes. At the end of this enriching experience, we will return to our hotel in Cusco for a well-deserved evening of relaxation.
At the scheduled time, our team will accompany you to the airport for your private transfer. As you depart Cusco, you’ll carry with you the energy of the Apus (sacred mountain spirits), the warmth of its people, and the memory of an authentic, transformative journey. May every aroma, flavor, and landscape remain as a living memory of the heart of Peru.
