Arequipa: Sightseeing tour of the Church of Cayma, ashlar, and rock art in Uchumayo

Visit Cayma and its unique square, its imposing Baroque-Mestizo church, and admire the sculptures in ashlar, a stone of volcanic origin in Arequipa, and the rock carvings from pre-Hispanic times.
8:50 a.m. We will meet at the meeting point and then board our vehicle to head to our first stop, the Cayma vantage point, from where we will see the imposing Misti volcano. Our tour guide will also help us explore the arches and the Church of San Miguel Arcángel, an example of the mestizo baroque architecture that stands out the most among all the churches in the city. We will also pass by the Cuesta del Olivo and the Cuesta del Ángel. Our tour guide will also explain the traditions and traditional foods of the district, such as the Cayma carnival and adobo, a very popular dish in this district. Our tour guide will also give us time to try one of the most popular desserts in the city, queso helado (frozen cheese).
After a reasonable amount of time for photos and a stroll, we will continue our tour to the Ice Age quarries, where we will see carvings inspired by the famous movie Ice Age, the Virgin of Chapi, the Andean condor, a bullfight, and more, made from the volcanic ignimbrite stone popularly known as ashlar. After a reasonable amount of time for photos and the purchase of volcanic handicrafts, we will continue towards the Uchumayo district. This place offers us more than one visit to its stone carvings, such as the rock art dating back to pre-Hispanic times, a small complex of engravings with motifs representing dancing human beings, animals (vicuñas, llamas, Andean condors, snakes, among others), and geometric figures.
We will also go on a hike with our tour guide. Along the way, he will explain the customs and traditions that were once practiced in southern Peru.
A short break and return to the city of Arequipa.
End of the sightseeing tour 2 blocks away from the main square, approximately 1:00 pm
