Cusco

Our trip through Peru, and specifically our exploration of Machu Picchu, shows us that team-building experiences can go beyond the expected. The city of Cusco offers a blend of history, culture, and adventure that can transform your team.


Cusco provides a unique backdrop for collaborative activities and experiences. From exploring the historic Plaza de Armas to the neighborhood of San Blas, there's many opportunities to connect with your team on a deeper level. Here's what we recommend in Cusco...



Day Five


  • We stayed in the neighborhood of San Blasit was fun, artsy, and everything you need is right in walking distance. Shops, restaurants, beautiful architecture, and more.


  • Take a tour of the historical city - be sure to see the Plaza de Armas, Cathdral, San Cristobal, Calle Siete Borreguitos (a street with gorgeous flowers, very picturesque!) San Cristobal Church, Acueducto Colonial, and Saqsaywaman


  • Enjoy dinner at Mauka




Day Six


  • Enjoy a challenging but rewarding hike to Humantay Lake, a stunning turquoise glacial lake at an impressive 13,700 feet above sea level. Be prepared for a strenuous hike with a decent elevation gain of over 3,280 feet. Definitely worth the sweat.


  • Reward your hard work with an amazing sushi dinner at Chikara Sushi afterward!



Day Seven


  • Explore the city and all its delicious treats, starting off with a food tour of the Mercado San Blas. It's a huge food market offering a chance to sample delicious Peruvian classics.


  • Take a cooking class at Roots Cuisine & Coffee learning how to prepare classic Peruvian dishes like Pisco Sour, Alpaca Stew and even Guinea Pig! Such a fun treat for everyone to enjoy.


  • Enjoy the neighborhood of San Blas - do some shopping to grab a special souvenir, stop by F*ck Your Diet Pies (a pie and specialty coffee shop) for a midday treat, and when happy hour strikes, head to Limbus. A bar with amazing city views and even better Pisco sours.


  • End the day with dinner at Local. Delicious pizza, pasta, and a super fun atmosphere for all.


 

Cusco is a bustling city with so much to explore and so many delicious treats to eat. We can't recommend the Peruvian experience enough, especially for a magical team building experience. Head to the blog to learn more about our Peruvian adventure.
