      Cusco has so much rich history, definitely worthy of a visit if ever deciding to come to Peru or to visit Machu Picchu which is our next video we just released yesterday! ~ Eric

      Thanks so much. I wish we could have shown the interior of the Cathedral. It was really something else. But hopefully you got a good taste of Cusco through this video and if you have any questions, as always, just let us know! ~ Eric

    That was an outstanding tour, it must be so overwhelming to consider the ancient history

      Whitley, there was so much there. This video captures but a snapshot of what we saw. Wait until you see the next one on Machu Picchu! ~ Eric

    I went on a Brien Foerster tour years ago it changed everything for me. Whatever you see in granite or basalt with no seams predates all to whom they give credit to.

      Having been there myself as well, I'm convinced that the Inca built these structures. I personally don't buy into alien or advanced civilization theories, but I think it is fascinating the multiple theories that are out there. ~ Eric

    I'm very envious of Caspian's ability with Spanish. I've tried for years to be able to roll my r's like that and failed.

      He's pretty amazing Josiah. I wish people could see him on a daily basis like I do. I marvel at this kid. ~ Eric

    Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. I been to Cusco once to do the Incas trail hike. I love that place and can't wait to go back. We had the same issue pronouncing some of the places there specially the sexy woman please. :-).

      Haha! It was so difficult for me to say. Brittany and Caspian got it on the first try. It just wouldn't compute in my brain and transfer to my tongue. ~ Eric

    Wait, I have a lot of questions... Ok, two questions:
    1) What is that animal roasted on a stick? (at 13:40)
    2) What were those tunnels in Saqsaywaman used for?

    • @HourlessLife
      @HourlessLife  3 місяці тому +1

      1. The animals are guinea pigs, called here by the name cuy. They are a staple of their diet and street food here.
      2. The tunnels were used by the Incans to traverse their construction areas, they were also used from our understanding extensively all throughout the mountains, and there are many legends regarding them. Our guide claims that two students decided to investigate the tunnels, one died on the journey, and the other made it all way to the cathedral in Cusco through the tunnels where he knocked on a door and it was opened by a church official. He was nearly dead when it they opened it for him. Not sure on the veracity of the story, but that is how it goes. ~ Eric

    Brittany, one more container of peanut butter could have indicated a problem.
