AM: A day of Ayni, or reciprocity. Drive through the Sacred Valley to a Quechua
mountain school supported by the non-profit Willka T’ika Children’s Fund. Since
1995, Willka T’ika has supported isolated mountain communities where few tourists
visit. In an ayni exchange, the group will offer an interactive activity for the Quechua
children. The warmth and heart-warming joy of the children and their openness in
bringing guests into their daily lives are moments not easily forgotten. Enjoy a box
lunch with a stunning view.
PM: Continue with your guide to the spectacular ruins of P’isaq. Overlooking
impressive Incan terraces, the group is invited to hike to the Temple of the Sun.
Meditate as a group or walk in silent reflection. Return to the main square of
P’isaq by bus (or hike!) and visit the famous, colorful market filled with woven goods, jewelry, wall hangings and hand-painted beadwork. Enjoy a café in the market square where you can observe colorfully dressed campesinos. P’isaq is a
photographer’s dream. Return to Willka T’ika with time for a late afternoon garden
meditation or group session before dinner.
Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner included
