Day 1
E-biking through Cusco Ruins
This Ebike ride is a great way to learn about the Inca heritage of Cusco and Peru. The itinerary is flexible to suit your group’s riding ability. You will begin to ride your Ebike in the Plaza de Armas, the main square of Cusco. The road climbs steeply to the Inca site of Sacsayhuaman. But thanks to the Ebike battery assist, you will fly up the hill with no effort. Sacsayhuaman is best known for the huge monoliths which form its ramparts. These ramparts were constructed in zig-zag form, for defensive purposes. Some think they also signify lightning. After exploring Sacsayhuaman you continue on your Ebikes to Puca Pucara, which was built as a staging post for chasquis, the Inca runners that carried messages across the kingdom. Then you cross the road to Tambomachay, an Incan water temple complete with intricately carved stonework. Your route back to Cusco depends upon your group. There are lots of options and your guide will choose a suitable one. For some, that means riding back down the road. For others that may be taking one of the steep trails enjoyed by local mountain bikers. Lunch is taken along the way. Included: English-speaking guide, transport, lunch, Ebike, helmet, gloves, equipment

After living in Peru for around 4 years, I'm still making it my business to discover as many new places as possible. From wandering Inca Trails just outside of Lima to hanging out in adobe homes in Cajamarca, there's a lifetime of adventure out here.
