In Cusco, you will probably triplicate your daily steps, explore many ruins and sites, hike and be excessively active, which is why, breakfast is essential. As lovers of a morning pastry and crunchy sourdough toast, we suggest you visit Migas del Valle for exactly that. Whether it's for the espresso that will get your heart pumping or the almond croissant that will get your tummy ready to climb Machu Picchu, we think this place is just right for an early pick-me-up. 

Tambo del Inka is a luxury hotel known for its focus on wellness. Whether it is a facial after outdoor yoga or a fine-dining experience with ingredients from the garden (in Hawa- their restaurant), a cocktail by the pool or a hike to the nearest archaeological site, this hotel knows how to fuel the body and soul correctly. This hotel is an ideal relaxation getaway and the perfect stay to explore and get cultured among Peru's sacred region. Fall asleep with the gentle rush of the Urubamba River and rise with the condors and the beloved Andean blue sky. 

Hidden among the hills of the Sacred Valley are over 3,000 salt mines used since the Incas were in charge. The thousands of shallow pools compile saltwater from a nearby stream. Eventually, evaporation occurs and crystallized salt is left behind. Explore the salt mines and the traditional methods of salt harvesting, and soak in the landscape: the contrasting white patchwork of salt mines that clashes with the Andean greens and browns. Every time we visit this other-worldly site, we take more than a few varieties of salt shakers home.

The Sacred Valley is a region abundant in history, culture and nature. The fertile lands, fueled by the Urubamba River, made this region an agricultural heaven and it was, therefore, a deeply spiritual place. The beautiful Andean landscape and the growing plantations were seen as gifts from the gods. The Incas thanked and honoured the earth (Pachamama), the sun (Inti) and other figures with vibrant ceremonies, making this region, sacred forever. Plus, the valley is dotted with ancient ruins such as Ollantaytambo and Pisac. Spend days or mornings in this region for treks and outdoor activities among the snow-capped mountains.
