The classic valley circuit done properly: Pisac's terraces before the market crowds, lunch in Urubamba, the blinding-white salt pans of Maras, and Ollantaytambo late in the day when the tour tide recedes and the Inca street grid empties out. The guide splits time between archaeology and present-tense Quechua life, which is the right mix. It is a long day at altitude with a lot of stairs — do this after you have acclimatized, not on day one.
