Temple, shrine & monastery tours
Good temple tours fill up weeks ahead and the sunrise slots go first. Below: the 4 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Review of Pachacamac from Lima, with temple highlights, guide quality, price, walking demands, tips, and practical booking advice.
“Loved this tour! Eduardo is very knowledgeable and eager to share information not only about the site, but also life in Lima and Peru in general. Angel is an excellent driver! We felt very safe and comfortable with him.”
Review of Cusco’s 3.5-hour small-group tour covering San Pedro Market, Qorikancha, San Blas, the Cathedral, and Inca stonework.
“Nice tour, however our guide was not particularly in a good shape that day. But very eloquent and instructed. We had the impression that he expedite the end of the tour.”
Ride through the Andes to Cusco’s Temple of the Moon with calm horses, local guides, city views, and a small six-person group.
“I was so happy to experience such surreal beauty riding through Peru’s stunning and refreshing nature trails! Our tour guide, Bennei , was incredible! We arrived at The Temple Of The Moon with Spirit lead timing! I was able to have a ceremony in the temple and when we came out there was a rainbow shining. I’m very grateful for this experience that provided healing, presentness, connection to nature and the ranch animals! I highly recommend signing up for this tour!!”
Ride Peruvian Paso horses from Cusco to the Temple of the Moon and Chacan Mountain with hotel transfers, snacks, and a bilingual guide.
“Absolutely AMAZING experience at Gabriel’s ranch, I couldn’t recommend it more. 100% commitment to both animal welfare and customer experience, the horses are very well taken care of and Gabriel proved to be a phenomenal local guide. Worth noting many alternative tour providers keep their horses saddled and tethered all day in the sun (!) so I highly recommend going with Gabriel’s ranch to guarantee you support the most ethical local business”
