2 Day Hacienda Experience
Immerse yourself in a 2-day experience at Hacienda Paucartika, a historic retreat in the Sacred Valley that beautifully blends Incan, Andean, and colonial influences. Located beneath the ancient ruins of Huchuy Qosqo, this hacienda invites you to connect with the rich heritage and natural beauty of Peru.
Your journey begins with a pickup from Cusco or another location in the valley. After arriving and settling into your room, enjoy a tour of the property, where you’ll discover ancient Incan stones, lush gardens, and meet our animals, including Chaska, our friendly alpaca who loves posing for photos with guests.
In the evening, gather for a fireside dinner in our beautiful dining hall, where organic farm-to-table vegetarian meals, sourced from our gardens, are served. For those who prefer, fish or chicken is available upon request for an additional fee.
The following morning starts with breakfast, featuring eggs from our free-range chickens, before heading up the mountain to explore the Huchuy Qosqo ruins. Once a royal retreat for Inca rulers, this remarkable site offers terraces, ceremonial spaces, and stunning views over the valley. Your Quechua-speaking guide will lead you through the ruins, sharing the stories of its past, teaching you a few Quechua words, and introducing you to the Andean medicinal plants that thrive in this sacred landscape.
For those seeking a deeper connection, you have the option to work with San Pedro (Wachuma), the sacred cactus medicine of the Andes. This profound experience will follow a slightly adjusted itinerary, allowing for a more personal journey with the plant.
After the ruins, you’ll visit a local Andean family to share traditional food and tea, immersing yourself in their hospitality. In the evening, return to the hacienda for another fireside dinner, and as the night falls, enjoy an unobstructed view of the stars. With the distant presence of the ancient ruins and the grandeur of the surrounding mountains, the night sky will fill you with a sense of timeless connection to this sacred land. The next morning, after a final breakfast, you'll be transported back to Cusco or another destination in the Sacred Valley, carrying with you the unforgettable memories of this unique experience.
We offer flexible room and pricing options to accommodate both solo travelers and pairs. For those attending as a duo, you can choose between a room with twin beds or a matrimonial bed, ensuring comfort for all preferences. Pricing will vary depending on whether you're booking for one or two people, with packages tailored to meet your needs.
