Sacred valley Tour; The Sacred Valley is filled with a mix of historical attractions and living cultural traditions, and it is very popular with visitors to Peru.

In the colorful town of Chinchero you will be introduced to the weaving culture – the preparation of the wool, how they use natural dyes to color the wool, and the weaving process to create beautiful textiles.
