Activities

All our holidays include a visit to Cusco.

Cusco is an excellent centre for adventure sports, and many of the agencies in town specialise in such activities.

Mountain biking

The area around Cusco is very good for mountain biking, with trips possible from one day to several weeks. A typical day trip could be to Moray and Maras, close to the Sacred Valley.

River Rafting

There is some very good white-water rafting near Cusco. One or two day trips are possible on the Urubamba River, usually downriver from Ollantaytambo, and although these are relatively tame, not going above Class III, the trip is very beautiful.

Other activities

Horse riding, Paragliding and hot air ballooning are all possible in the Cusco area. Ask our reps if you are interested in any of these options.
