What will you do?
We will meet at the main square of Ollantaytambo and quickly go to the living Inca village of Qosqo Ayllu. There I will tell you how the Incas conquered the Huari people and imposed their customs, religion and traditions. We will visit Inca houses more than 500 years old, walk along the cobblestone streets and see the Inca canalizations. Then we head to Pata Calle, where we will appreciate the archaeological site of Ollantaytambo and I will tell you the romantic story of Ollanta and Cusiqollor. Then we will head towards the Pinkulluna mountain to see the Inca granaries. At the end, we will go to my family’s restaurant to taste typical Ollanta dishes prepared by my wife.

Learn about host Juan Carlos
Hello, my name is Juan Carlos and the core of my life is Ollantaytambo. Here I grew up and today work as a professional guide, communicating to the whole world the virtues of this city. In English, French, Quechua or Spanish, the language barrier has never been a problem to let the world know the history of the Incas in my more than 15 years of experience.
