Capturing beautiful photos of your travels is a must these days. With smartphones and social media at our fingertips, it is easier now, more than ever, for anyone to be a travel photographer and share breathtaking shots with their audience. What better place to start? The Cusco region is home to some of the most magnificent sites in the world!

Get Inspired

Before any trip, scout out a few of the best photo opportunities for inspiration. A great way to do this is by searching hashtags and locations on Instagram. This helps get those creative juices flowing around lighting, framing, angles, subjects, and all that fancy photography stuff.

At Under30Experiences, we aim to provide young adults with exceptional travel memories. What better way to preserve amazing memories than by photograph? But remember, the best moments aren't behind a lens, so pull out the camera and get the shot, but then put it away and enjoy the experience!

After numerous trips to Peru with our travelers and guides, we’ve constructed a list of our favorite photo spots in Cusco, Peru!

Honorable Mention: Llamas

You can’t go to Peru and NOT get a llama picture. Yes, we know llamas aren’t a place...but you can find these guys all over the Cusco region. Make sure you get your shot!
