Giant sculptures, goblins, and an enchanted forest just outside Cusco
The Mystical Tour visits four of the most curious and photogenic places just outside Cusco, where stone art, nature, and Andean legends come together. It is a group tour: we pick you up at your accommodation around 10 a.m., set off in tourist transportation with a bilingual guide, and return to Cusco between 4 and 5 p.m.
We start at the Abode of the Gods, a set of monumental sculptures carved into the rock: Pachamama, the puma, and Inca faces. Then we visit the Valley of the Goblins, continue to the Huasao Wetland to walk among birds and Andean scenery, and finish at the Forest of the Ents, with creatures carved into tree trunks and roots.
It costs US$ 30 per person and includes hotel pickup, round-trip transportation, a professional bilingual guide, and a first aid kit. Entrance fees to the sites are paid separately. From October 1 to November 2, for Halloween, the tour is 10% off: US$ 27 per person. If you prefer more adventure, you can also visit the Abode of the Gods by ATV.
