Cusco Day Trips
Single-Day Tours From Cusco

There are so many iconic must-sees and hidden gems around Cusco that are well worth a trip. If you don’t have multiple days to take in the history and culture of the Incas, we offer full-day and half-day tours from Cusco that cover important cultural sites, historic buildings, and stunning views near Cusco. See the over 3,000 salt pools on the Maras Moray tour, the vivid and sparkling blue hues of the Blue Lagoon on our full-day Humantay Lake Hike, or several historical sights and ruins right in the city on our Cusco City Tour.

There are so many ways to fill your day in and around Cusco – let us take you to the most memorable spots.

Why Choose a Peru Day Tour with Alpaca Expeditions

Learn About the History and Culture of Cusco, Peru

There is much to learn and experience in Cusco and the surrounding areas. You can better understand the industries that power our economy, the stories of the Incas, and the natural beauty at your fingertips in this stunning area of Peru.

It’s a Great Way To Acclimate to the Altitude

If you plan a trek to Machu Picchu or other high-altitude hikes, we highly recommend spending a few days in Cusco to acclimate to the altitude. Spending 2-3 days exploring Cusco before your trip can prepare your body for your trek and save you from exhaustion, migraines, flu symptoms, and fatigue of altitude sickness. A day tour is the perfect way to fill your days as you prepare for your trek!
