City tour em Cusco: como é a experiência do passeio

O City Tour em Cusco é um dos passeios mais populares na cidade. Está em todos os roteiros, normalmente nos primeiros dias de viagem.

Isso porque este é um passeio curto. A maioria das agências em Cusco oferece o City tour em grupo, em meio período (normalmente a tarde).

Durante o City tour, você vai visitar algumas das principais atrações do centro de Cusco, e em alguns sítios arqueológicos nos arredores da cidade. A agência leva os grupos em vans ou pequenos ônibus.

A maior vantagem de colocar esse tour nos primeiros dias de viagem é que ele não exige muito esforço físico. Não há muitos deslocamentos nem subidas.

Isso é essencial para quem é recém chegado na desafiadora altitude de 3400 metros em Cusco. O objetivo maior é evitar o soroche (mal de altitude) .

E foi exatamente isso o que nós fizemos. Colocamos o city tour em Cusco no roteiro do nosso dia de chegada em Cusco. Chegamos no meio da manhã, almoçamos na praça central de Cusco, e depois fomos encontrar o grupo.

Nesse post, saiba tudo o city tour em Cusco. Como funciona, o que nós achamos do passeio e como contratar (em grupo ou privativo).

City tour em Cusco: como funciona

Você pode fazer o City Tour em Cusco em grupo (como nós fizemos), com guia privado , ou de forma independente (contratando um táxi, um guia, e indo por conta própria).

Cada um desses modelos tem seus prós e contras. Vamos falar de todas elas.

Como é o tour em grupo

A forma mais popular – e mais barata – é fazer o City tour em Cusco com um grupo. Praticamente todas as agências de turismo no centro de Cusco vendem esse passeio.

Geralmente, há grupos sendo formados todos os dias. O passeio acontece no período da tarde, a partir das 14h até mais ou menos às 19h.

Mas no city tour em Cusco rola uma coisa muito curiosa.

O foco do tour não está no centro da cidade , como acontece na maioria dos City Tours pelo mundo.

A gente faz uma rápida passagem pelo centro, visitando o Convento de Santo Domingo, e a Catedral de Cusco.

Depois o grupo pega um transporte (van ou ônibus) e sai da cidade, para explorar alguns sítios arqueológicos que ficam nos arredores de Cusco (fortaleza de Sacsayhuaman, o anfiteatro de Qenqo e o complexo militar de Puka Pukara.

Reserve seu passeio: city tour Cusco + ruínas

Resumindo, a maior parte da duração do City tour em Cusco a gente vai passar fora da cidade propriamente dita, entende?

De certa forma faz sentido, porque os locais tinham relação com a antiga Cusco (a majestosa cidade inca que existia antes da invasão espanhola).

Mas particularmente, achei esse formato um pouco esquisito. Vou te falar o porquê.

O centro de Cusco é riquíssimo em atrações. Tem a praça, as igrejas, mercados… Afinal, estamos falando da capital do antigo império Inca, conhecida como o “umbigo do mundo”.

Imagine quanta riqueza cultural e quanta história tem guardada ali no centro da cidade.

Quando questionei o guia, ele me falou que as atrações do centro são fáceis de visitar por conta própria.

Mas eu não queria visitar por conta própria… Queria visitar com o guia. E por isso comprei o City Tour em Cusco .

Mas enfim, é bom que eu passei por isso pra você não ir desprevenido na sua viagem.

O city tour em Cusco, nesse formato em grupo, é um passeio meio apressadinho , que dá uma voltinha no centro e depois passa também rápido por alguns sítios arqueológicos nos arredores da cidade.

Reserve aqui: City tour em Cusco + ruínas arquelógicas

No caso do meu grupo, ainda precisamos comprar por fora: a entrada no convento de Santo Domingo (não incluso no valor do tour), e o Boleto Turístico de Cusco , necessário para visitar os sítios arqueológicos nos arredores da cidade.

Ao fazer pesquisas entre agências para contratar o city tour em grupo, lembre de perguntar se esses ingressos estão incluídos no valor, ou não.

Normalmente, o boleto turístico sempre precisa ser comprado a parte, mas alguns Tours incluem ou não a entrada na catedral e no convento de Santo Domingo.

Como é em grupo, a gente tem pouca liberdade para ficar mais um tempinho, se por acaso alguma coisa atraiu a atenção.

O ponto positivo é que o passeio já está montado pra você. E tem transporte incluído para visitar esses pontos que ficam fora do centro.

Como é o city tour privativo em Cusco

Se eu tivesse me informado melhor, com certeza teria contratado um City tour privativo em Cusco .

Você vai visitar os mesmos sítios históricos, mas acompanhado de um guia local, específico para seu grupo.

Só de poder ir no seu ritmo, e fazer perguntas ao guia livremente, a experiência como um todo já fica mais interessante e menos cansativa. Dá pra aproveitar muito mais.

O guia ainda te busca no seu hotel em Cusco, e te devolve lá ao final do passeio. Uma mão na roda. Outra vantagem é que o tour privativo já inclui a entrada na catedral e no convento de Santo Domingo.

No tour em grupo a gente precisou comprar o ingresso para entrar na hora no convento de Santo Domingo e na catedral de Cusco.

O boleto turístico de Cusco, necessário para visitar as atrações dos arredores de Cusco, não está incluído no valor do tour.

Como é fazer o City tour em Cusco de forma independente

Você também pode fazer tudo de forma independente, mas é preciso contratar um táxi para se deslocar entre os sítios históricos que ficam afastados do centro.

E de preferência, contrate também um guia, para acompanhar você e explicar a riqueza histórica de cada lugar. Vai fazer toda diferença na sua experiência.

Quanto custa o City Tour em Cusco?

Praticamente todas as agências de turismo da cidade vendem o City Tour em Cusco, com pequenas diferenças no valor do tour.

Como nós chegamos em Cusco perto da hora do almoço, já pensando em incluir o city tour na nossa tarde, não tivemos muito tempo pra escolher uma agência.

Entramos em duas agências vizinhas na Plaza de Armas, escolhemos uma e pronto. Pagamos 30 soles para fazer o city tour em Cusco (valor de setembro / 2017).

Mas fazer as coisas de última hora não costuma dar muito certo, né? Depois encontramos agências em Cusco oferecendo o mesmo passeio por 20 soles.

Nos valores de hoje (2022), esse passeio custa em torno de R$50 – depende um pouco do valor da cotação nas datas da sua viagem.

Veja aqui valores atualizados: City tour em Cusco + ruínas

Até porque, um costume comum em Cusco é que as pequenas agências juntam seus grupos, para fazer um grande grupão com um guia só.

É uma forma de economia para eles. Mas pra gente acaba ficando bem ruim. Pessoas que pagaram diferentes valores acabam recebendo o mesmo serviço. E o grupo grande atrasa e deixa o passeio confuso.

Tem mais um detalhe sobre os valores.

Para fazer o City Tour, você precisa adquirir o Boleto Turístico de Cusco . É o bilhete que dá acesso aos sítios arqueológicos que ficam nos arredores da cidade.

Além disso, algumas agências incluem no preço o valor da entrada na catedral (25 soles) e no convento de Santo Domingo (10 soles). Pergunte ao contratar.

Se esses bilhetes não estiverem incluídos no seu tour, você vai precisar pagar na hora do passeio, por conta própria.

Free walking tour em Cusco: opção alternativa

Se você preferir, pode fazer também um free walking tour em Cusco . Essa modalidade de passeio está ficando cada vez mais popular em cidades turísticas.

Um guia local oferece uma caminhada com o grupo, mostrando os principais pontos turísticos da cidade, e ao final do tour você pode retribuir o trabalho do guia de forma voluntária, com qualquer valor que achar conveniente.

O passeio de free walking tour em Cusco se trata apenas de um passeio pelos sítios arqueológicos de dentro da cidade e não inclui a visita aos sítios arqueológicos nos arredores da cidade.

É um passeio diferente, mas que pode valer muito a pena já que foi justamente isso que senti falta no City tour convencional – mais informações sobre os pontos turísticos da cidade de Cusco em si, que é muito rica e merece ser bem explorada.

Veja mais informações e reserve aqui: free walking tour Cusco

Circuito mágico das Águas, em Lima (Peru)

Malecón de Miraflores e Parque del Amor, Lima

Visita aos sítios arqueológicos em Lima

Primeira dica. Não esqueça de ir com roupas leves e sapatos confortáveis. Você vai caminhar pelas ruínas e faz muito calor durante o dia em Cusco.

Mas leve agasalhos, porque basta o sol se pôr que o frio chega de verdade!

Atrações no centro de Cusco

O ponto de encontro do City Tour em Cusco é a Plaza de Armas, no centro da cidade. As primeiras atrações visitadas são feitas a pé, nas proximidades da praça.

A visita à Catedral de Cusco custa 25 soles. O valor não estava incluído no nosso passeio. Era preciso pagar na hora e em dinheiro.

Como estávamos em grupo, a maioria optou por não pagar. E nosso grupo simplesmente só visitou a catedral por fora.

Se você tiver mais sorte do que eu, e conseguir visitar a Catedral de Cusco, saiba: não é permitido tirar fotos no interior da igreja.

Depois da catedral, visitamos Qoriqancha, ou Templo do Sol , onde finalmente entramos. A entrada em Qoriqancha custa 10 soles (também não incluído no tour, pagamos na hora e em dinheiro).

O atual Convento de Santo Domingo foi construido sobre as ruínas do antigo templo inca. A visita foi rápida, e me deixou com vontade de olhar tudo com mais calma.

As fotos são permitidas apenas no pátio central do templo.

Anota a dica: Há muitas igrejas no centro de Cusco, mas para conhecer a maioria delas é preciso pagar uma taxa de visitação.

Atrações nos arredores de Cusco

Depois de visitar as duas atrações no centro de Cusco, nosso grupo pegou um ônibus e seguiu para conhecer os sítios arqueológicos na periferia de Cusco. 

Todas as atrações visitadas estão incluídas no valor do Boleto Turístico . Você não precisa pagar nada mais a partir de agora. Ufa!

A portaria de todos os sítios arqueológicos funcionam das 7h às 18h. Na sequência de visita, conhecemos:

– Sacsayhuaman , ruínas de um antigo templo, que muitos acreditam ter sido uma antiga fortaleza Inca. Fica a 6 km da cidade. Lá fica a estátua do Cristo Branco, e temos uma vista linda de Cusco;

– Q’enqo , outro antigo lugar de culto, hoje em ruínas, que fica a 4km de Cusco;

– Puka pukara , um antigo quartel e local de hospedagem para os Incas. Lá vimos nosso primeiro pôr-do-sol na terra dos Incas. Fica a 7 km de Cusco;

– Tambomachay , um conjunto de ruínas de antigos terraços e banhos.

Mesmo com toda correria, já chegamos aqui no final da luz do dia, e não tinha mais ninguém na portaria.

Entramos, mas não ganhamos nossa marcação no Boleto Turístico para essa atração. E não vimos quase nada, porque rapidamente escureceu. Fica a 7.7 km de Cusco.

Dependendo da empresa, ainda se faz uma última parada no city tour.

Nós visitamos uma lojinha de artesanatos , roupas e produtos típicos peruanos. As paradas nesse tipo de comércio são bem comuns em todos os tours em Cusco e no Vale Sagrado dos Incas .

Vale a pena fazer o City Tour de Cusco?

Eu estava muito ansiosa por esse passeio! Cheguei em Cusco empolgada para aprender mais sobre os Incas, conhecer os sítios arqueológicos e ver todas as paisagens incríveis que o destino prometia.

Mas a verdade: não gostei do City Tour em Cusco nesse modelo de passeio em grupo.

Pra começo de conversa, pegamos um grupo que não visitou a Catedral. Nosso city tour começou de verdade em Qoriqancha.

Então minha primeira dica: pergunte tim-tim por tim-tim na agência sobre o que está incluído, para ter direito de cobrar e reclamar caso uma coisa assim aconteça.

E se puder, contrate um tour privativo .

A parte boa do passeio foi que nosso guia sabia muito, muito sobre tudo. Ele começou a dar explicações muito bacanas no Templo do Sol. Ficamos muito impressionados, achando que tínhamos tirado a sorte grande com o guia.

Mas o problema logo apareceu: ele começou a fazer tudo com muita pressa, correndo tanto de um lugar pra o outro que a gente mal aproveitava o lugar, e quase não conseguia tirar fotos.

A correria começou a fazer sentido quando a tarde foi acabando e a gente ainda tinha muita coisa pra ver.

O City Tour inclui muitas atrações, e quem quer ver tudo ao mesmo tempo acaba não vendo nada direito.

E por causa dos atrasos normais em grandes grupos e da correria do guia, chegamos na última atração já sem luz do sol e sem mais ninguém na portaria.

Em resumo, eu não gostei de fazer o City Tour em Cusco com um grupo. Se fosse novamente, teria escolhido o tour privativo sem sombra de dúvidas.

E com certeza eu escolheria fazer também o free walking tour em Cusco, pois parece ser uma ótima oportunidade de aprender sobre os pontos turísticos da cidade inca de Cusco, com dicas de um local e sem gastar muito.

Oi Klecia, você acha interessante fazer city tour de Cusco antes de Machu Picchu? Maras e Moray tudo bem deixar para depois? Considerei fazer vale sagrado antes de Machu Picchu, mas os outros passeios depois.. e estou pensando em mudar.. Pela sua experiência o que acha?

Oi Ludmila, Dependendo do horário que você vai chegar em Cusco, daria pra fazer o City tour no mesmo dia (como nós fizemos – Chegamos por volta das 11am e marcamos o city tour para o mesmo dia as 14hs – todas as agencias fazem mais ou menos no mesmo horário). é um bom passeio para aclimatar com a altitude de Cusco. Nós fizemos Maras e Moray antes de ir a MP, mas dá pra deixar para depois sem problema. Obrigado pela visita e boa viagem

oi Klécia… bom saber sobre estes pormenores. Esta é uma conta difícil de fechar e acho que a gente deve contar um pouco com a sorte de ter um guia bom. Eu tenho problemas com guias, pois meu ritmo é muito lento para eles, mesmo quando é particular. No Atacama fizemos os passeios com guia. Tive dificuldades em acompanhar, porque quando estava observando e absorvendo o grupo já estava distante e eu ficando para trás. Nos sítios arqueológicos do México fizemos tudo por conta e eu achei sensacional, mas havia informações disponíveis. Claro, poucas, mas suficientes para caber no meu ritmo. Uma amiga contratou estes dias um guia em Chichén e o que ele contou a ela eu já sabia e disse muito menos do que eu consegui aprender sozinha.

Contudo você recomenda que para Cusco eles são importantes. Eu acredito. Vou pensar, quando visitar, em me organizar financeiramente para pagar o privado, ou então, entregar aos deuses Incas para pegar um guia e um grupo de qualidade, como os que você pegou em outros passeios. 🙂 bjuuuss

Desses locais apenas nao visitei Pukapukara e Tambomachay, mas por preguiça. Decidimos descer um ponto antes e fazer Sacsayhuaman e Q’enqo. No entanto, fizemos tudo por conta. Também não gosto de city tours exatamente pelos motivos que vc citou: pressa do guia e grupo grande. O que eu acabei fazendo: quando achava interessante, contratava guias locais dentro de cada sitio. Tudo bem que tive tempo. Foram 5 dias em Cuzco (3 antes de MP e 2 depois)

Eu não tinha tempo, e acabei optando pelo conjunto de passeios guiados. Mas o único que me deixou arrependida da escolha foi esse. Faria tudo de novo, com guia pessoal, pra aproveitar com calma. É sem duvida um passeio de um dia inteiro, que eles fazem caber em 4 horas. Uma pena.

Adéntrate en el reino sagrado de los incas en el Templo del Sol (Qoricancha), un santuario sagrado donde se adoraba al sol con la mayor reverencia.

Pero la aventura no termina ahí; aventúrese a las cercanas ruinas de Sacsayhuamán, una formidable fortaleza ceremonial con colosales muros de piedra, y Q’enqo, un centro de culto místico con canales de piedra intrincadamente tallados. Explora Puca Pucara, un antiguo puesto militar, y descubre los secretos de Tambomachay, el legendario baño Inca. Cada uno de estos extraordinarios sitios tiene una historia única que contar, ofreciendo una visión profunda de las vibrantes tradiciones y la historia de Cusco.

¿Cuándo es el momento óptimo para emprender un city tour en Cusco?

Al decidir el momento óptimo para embarcarse en un recorrido por la ciudad de Cusco, es esencial tener en cuenta sus inclinaciones individuales en cuanto a las condiciones climáticas y la densidad de multitudes.

El período de mayo a octubre, conocido como estación seca, presenta una excelente oportunidad para hacer turismo, con abundancia de días soleados y precipitaciones mínimas. Esta franja horaria es especialmente propicia para sumergirse en la rica historia de la ciudad visitando yacimientos arqueológicos y paseando por sus encantadoras calles adoquinadas. Sin embargo, vale la pena señalar que esta temporada coincide con el pico de afluencia de turistas, lo que resulta en niveles potencialmente más altos de actividad en varios lugares.

¿Existen recomendaciones o consejos específicos para capturar fotografías durante el city tour en Cusco?

Con sus vibrantes mercados, impresionantes ruinas incas y ricas calles coloniales, Cusco es un verdadero paraíso para los fotógrafos. Para asegurarse de capturar las imágenes más impresionantes, se recomienda tener una cámara equipada con un rango de zoom versátil. Esto le permitirá capturar bellamente detalles arquitectónicos intrincados, así como paisajes extensos.

Las primeras horas de la mañana y la tarde proporcionan una luz suave y acogedora que es perfecta para fotografiar paisajes urbanos y sitios antiguos. Recuerde siempre pedir permiso antes de fotografiar a los lugareños, especialmente en mercados y zonas rurales. Además, tenga en cuenta que ciertos lugares, como iglesias y museos, pueden tener restricciones de fotografía específicas.

Descriptivo de lugares a visitar

La ciudad del Cusco inicialmente fue el centro de la civilización Inca, en sus extraordinarias calles encontramos la historia que al paso de los años no se ha disipado y está más presente, esta experiencia nos permite conocer los principales lugares de la ciudad como por ejemplo:

• La Basílica de la Catedral del Cusco: Una joya artística y arquitectónica. Se alza en la plaza principal, sobre el recinto del Kiswar Kancha que fue el lugar de residencia del gobernante Inca Viracocha. En su interior se hallan maravillosas obras de arte en madera, pinturas de la escuela cusqueña con detalles de plata repujada y pan de oro. (A solicitud del viajero)
• El Templo de Qoricancha: Fue el centro religioso más importante dentro de la ciudad construido para adorar al Sol (Deidad principal en el tiempo de los Incas) y otras deidades (Estrellas, Arcoiris, Rayo y Luna). Sobre las bases del Qoricancha, se edificó el templo de Santo Domingo que cuenta con bellas pinturas en su pinacoteca de arte colonial.
• Sacsayhuaman: Es una magnífica construcción con piedras de grandes dimensiones, unidas con asombrosa precisión simulando un rompecabezas, por mucho tiempo se considero una fortaleza, sin embargo estudios actuales lo consideran como un centro multifuncional ya que cuenta con un sector de almacenaje y también religioso. Es el lugar donde se lleva a cabo la fiesta del Intiraymi.
• Qenqo (Laberinto): Considerado como centro ceremonial incaico. Destaca un espacio abierto denominado anfiteatro donde se encontraban sus ídolos y momias en los 19 nichos trapezoidales que tiene; además de esto sobre una de las elevaciones rocosas ocurre cada año, el evento denominado “El despertar del puma”.
• Puka pukara: Nombre quechua que significa la fortaleza roja, se deduce que el lugar era un viejo tambo que servía de descanso y también para hacer guardia, según algunos registros este lugar probablemente contaba con una chinkana que conectaba con Tambomachay.
• Tambomachay: Un complejo arqueológico formado por piedras finamente talladas, interesantes caídas de agua y acueductos provenientes de fuentes y manantiales cercanos; por todo ello es asociado con el  culto al agua y la adoración de esta esencial deidad.

• We strongly suggest spending time at high altitude (above 3000 meters / 9842 feet)- in Cusco or another high altitude area for a minimum of 2- 4 days before undertaking your trip. This is in order to minimize the possible effects of altitude sickness. By drinking plenty of fluids, adding sugar to your drinks, eating food high in carbohydrates, avoiding cigarettes, alcohol, and drinking coca tea (ancient traditional leaf) will help your body acclimatize.
• We recommend you arrive in Cusco 48 hours or more before trek departure because occasionally we need to leave earlier than scheduled in case of strikes or other events out of our control (see ‘Force Majeure’ section below)

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION

1.- I am just one person, can I join some group tour?

Yes, you can, we have departures every day, feel free to decide when to go.

2.- We don’t like to go in a big group, can we arrange a private tour?

Yes you can, our group tours go with 10 or 15 people, but if you want, you can also arrange a private tour, we have different rates for it depending on how many people you are.

3.- I will travel with my family, we have two 65 YO people, do you think, can they make it?

We had people on this tour from 70 and 75 YO, the tour is not hard, but you have some small hikes into the Inca Sites where there are many steps to go up and down if you think they are not to fit to do it, we recommend taking a Private tour, that will be a perfect plan to do the tour quite easily and smoothly.

4.- How about my luggage, can I take all my stuff?, or where can I store it?

As this tour is only one day, we recommend taking only small backpacks, only for taking your personal stuff. The rest of your stuff you can be stored at your accommodation in Cusco, All the Hotels have storage if you book the night for your way back, you can leave your stuff there, another option is that you can leave your stuff in our office, in the two options you don’t need to pay anything extra.

5.- How about the altitude, are going to pass by other places higher than Cusco?

Cusco city is located in 3350 masl. (10990 Ft.) the only place higher than Cusco is Pucapucara 3680 masl. Then you will descend; we always recommend having at least one day in Cusco to acclimatize; altitude sickness is very different for everyone, sometimes you don’t have any problem.

Don't miss our fantastic guided tour of the ancient capital of the Inca Empire, Cusco. You'll discover the beautiful Plaza de Armas square, the San Blas neighbourhood, and so much more.

The tour meets at the selected time at Plaza Regocijo, by Plaza de Armas, the most important in Cusco. From here we begin our free tour , heading back to the origins of the city, when it was founded by the indigenous Inca civilization.

On the southern corner of the Plaza Regocijo, you'll come across the exterior of the Casa del Inca Garcilaso de la Vega . In front of this colonial mansion, we'll tell you about the Inca Garcilaso de la Vega , the most famous Peruvian chronicler and writer of the colonial period, considered the father of Peruvian literature .

Next we'll make our way to the  Plaza de San Francisco,  where we'll see its spectacular botanical garden filled with plants native to the Andes region. Plants such as llaulli, el yacon, cedroncillo, molle and even queuña are some of the highlights of this beautiful botanical garden.

From here we'll head onto the Colegio Nacional de Ciencias y Artes , the oldest public school in Cusco, founded by Simón Bolívar in 1825. We'll continue the tour passing by the Arch of Santa Clara, representative of the city's colonial style . 

Our next stop will be the  San Pedro Market , the perfect place for an initiation into local cuisine! Then the free tour contnues around one of the most important squares in the city:  Plaza de Armas.  It's here that you can find the  Compañía de Jesús Cathedral - built on the site of ancient Inca ruins.

Another highlight of the tour will be the Calle del Sol, or "Inti Kijllu" in the Quechua language, one of the very few originals from the Inca period. The last two stops will be at the Palace of the Inca Pachaquteq and the exterior of the Church of Santo Domingo and the temple of Qoricancha . We'll learn all about these historical and religious sites.

Finally, we'll end the free tour of Cusco after two and a half hours near the church of Santo Domingo.

This free tour doesn't admit groups of more than 6 people, even if they book the activity separately. If you're in a larger group, we recommend booking our private tour of Cusco .
