Overview

The Ingapirca ruins, one of Ecuador’s largest and most important archaeological sites, sit just north of Cuenca. Save time navigating public transport and waiting in line at the entrance to the site with this private tour, and visit this Incan fortress-temple in the Cañar Valley with a guide who can fill you in on its history. This leaves time to visit a family of indigenous weavers to see who Panama hats are made.
  • Explore the ruins with your own private guide; ask all your questions
  • Views of the Ecuadorean Andes from the road to Cañar
  • Visit a local family to see how Panama hats are woven
