Perfect Half Day Tour! - I loved this half day trip, can’t recommend enough! JC was an amazing tour guide and provided a lot of information on the tour. I particularly loved the visit to a local women’s collective that show you how they make textiles by hand (from collecting the wool, cleaning it, spinning it into thread, dying it with different local plants, and weaving it into blankets, sweaters, etc. that takes days/weeks!). The prices reflect the authenticity of the work (in the big cities in Peru, all the “alpaca” items are made of synthetic materials and chemically dyed!) so this is where I bought all my souvenirs and beautiful blankets that will last a lifetime! Just keep in mind it did not include lunch and we got back to Cusco at 2:30 so brings snacks or buy some along the way. Enjoy!

Impressive don't miss! - Moray is definitely a site to see! My second time in cusco and is one of the most beautiful places I had ever visited in my life, It's so impressive to see what the Inkas were capable of doing! I highly recommend this place and the tour company too.
