Itinerary:

Depart from your hotel in Cusco between 4:00 and 4:30 am (depending on the location of your hotel). Then, you will take a 1.40-hour drive to the village of Cusipata, where you will make a brief stop to enjoy a carefully prepared buffet breakfast with local ingredients. You can also use the restrooms here. Then, take a 20-minute drive to the village of Checacupe and visit the legendary bridges that were built in different eras. Admire the history and architectural legacy of two different cultures that, even after hundreds of years, remain in perfect condition.
After admiring the masterpieces, continue your journey for another 1.5 hours to the seven-colored mountain of Palccoyo. On this route, you will see hundreds of South American camelids and locals going about their daily activities. From the bus parking lot, take a 40-minute hike to the Rainbow Mountains viewpoint and enjoy unique and incredible panoramic views. If you are in good physical condition, climb to the highest point (4,900 meters above sea level), where you will see a kind of stone forest. From there, you can also enjoy breathtaking panoramic views.
Finally, take your tourist vehicle back to the town of Cusipata and enjoy exquisite Peruvian cuisine. After a rewarding break, continue your journey back to Cusco. Arrival in Cusco approximately between 5:30 and 6:00 pm.
