Centro Historico De Cusco
We want to consider this Half day as a great experience with Local people from Cusco instead of a tourist attraction or tour
We will pick you from your hotel around 08:30 am and drive for 20 minutes southeast outside of the Touristic area of Cusco then we will start walking and explore.
While you slowly make your way to the base of the hill, our guide will explain a little about the new urban sectors we are visiting and its developments, the urbanization projects, politics, religion and how we can help in the area. -
3 hours
Then we will visit one of the local biggest market, the Cusco supplier market called Vinocanchon, where many local people go there work daily with a lot of natural product from the Cusco Region.
We will open cultural exchange and conversation with members of the Neighborhood and local Association (for example about daily life in Cusco, the role of women, migration from the countryside to the city, the socio-political situation of the families, the educational opportunities they have, etc...). There will also be time to hear the personal stories of the members of the community.
After a great experience, we will take you back to the hotel around midday.
