While in Peru, you’ll also visit other Inca ruins, including Ollantaytambo and the Temple of Sacsayhuaman, where you’ll see an amazing example of Inca masonry. You’ll also have a chance to visit an Indian market, a local’s home and to learn why camelids (llama, vicuña, alpaca, and guanaco) are important for Inca cultures.
