Words from the group: "We’re a fun-loving, lighthearted couple who never turn down an adventure—especially one that gets us outdoors and surrounded by great people. You’ll find us pausing mid-trail to take in the view (and probably crack a joke), sharing stories over good food, and soaking up every moment of the journey. We love exploring new places, meeting new friends, and making memories that last long after the trek ends—come join us for the adventure!"

We will depart Cusco at around 8 a.m. and arrive in Urubamba by 10 a.m. Here, you will step into the heart of daily life in the Sacred Valley. This is more than just a tour; it is an opportunity to spend a day as the locals do, engaging in activities that have been passed down through generations.

Throughout the morning, you will participate in three 1-hour hands-on workshops, each offering a unique window into the traditions and livelihoods of the people who call this place home. Whether it is crafting ceramics, learning the art of chocolate making, or preparing chicha (a traditional fermented corn drink), each experience is intimate, genuine, and unforgettable. You will feel welcomed into people’s homes and share in their stories, passions, and way of life. It is special moments like these that make travel truly meaningful.

After the workshops, we will gather for a homemade lunch at the Chichubamba Agritourism project, where you can savor delicious local flavors prepared with care.

We will leave Urubamba around 2:30 p.m.
