Experience Cuenca's top two must-see attractions on a full-day tour. Visit the largest Inca archaeological site in Ecuador and the only elliptical temple of the Inca empire. Later, visit two artisan villages where crafts such as ikat weavings, fine filigree jewellery, and more are made.

Start your tour with a ride towards the valley of Cañar through the enchanting highlands, offering amazing views along the way.
