Full day tour of Qeswachaca Inca Bridge
Full day tour of Qeswachaca Inca Bridge
The full day tour of Qeswachaka Bridge is an absolutely unique tour. This tour will take you to some lesser known but amazing attractions within the Cusco region. On this tour you will see the beautiful four lakes of the highlands of Pomacanchi and Qeswachaka, the famous and ancient Inca bridge made of vegetable fiber.
This new tour is not as popular with tourists and will allow you to take in the amazing sites in a more peaceful manner. You will also have the opportunity to interact with members of local indigenous communities who don't see many tourists. Tourism helps these communities sustain their way of life.
