We got an early train back to Ollantaytambo which is a village in the Sacred Valley, amid snow-capped mountains next to the Urubamba river. On the train back, PeruRail put on a traditional dance with a character in a costume, dancing and running up and down the carriage.

Ollantaytambo is known for their ruins, a massive Inca fortress with large stone terraces on a hillside. The village’s old town is an Inca-era grid of cobblestoned streets and historic buildings so we spent some time wandering around until we got a taxi back to Cusco. The taxi back to Cusco was an hour and a half away and was only £10!

We stayed a night with a Peruvian family, which even had a balcony terrace overlooking a local football pitch, which Craig watched for a bit. Later that evening they even had some people practicing some Peruvian dancing which was great to watch and listen to their music. We then grabbed some food and got ready for another flight the following day.
