Itinerary
Day 1: Arequipa - Chivay
After picking you up at your accommodation in Arequipa, we will leave the city behind to enter the Colca Valley. For three hours we will cross the Salinas y Aguada Blanca National Reserve and stop at the Patapampa viewpoint, at 4,830 meters above sea level!

Between lagoons and wetlands we will arrive at our first destination: Chivay. This traditional village will welcome us at 3,600 meters above sea level. And in the afternoon, with our strength restored, we will visit the thermal baths of La Calera. We will be able to immerse ourselves in its waters and enjoy its well-known medicinal properties.

We will return to Chivay and there we will have the opportunity to experience an evening in the purest Colca Valley style. A dinner with dancing? While tasting the local flavors, we will be able to witness a show of typical dances, the best way to end the day!

Day 2: Chivay - Maca - Yanque - Arequipa
We will enjoy breakfast at the hotel in Chivay and continue touring the Colca Valley. With the first light of the morning we will arrive at the emblematic Mirador de la Cruz del Condor. There, for an hour, we will observe the flight of the condors and discover the crater of the Colca Canyon, one of the deepest in the world!

We will return to the road, and on our way back to Chivay we will make two stops. The first will be to explore Maca, a town declared a Peruvian Historical Monument. The church will welcome us as the most important building, and the locals and their clothes will invite us to discover some of their traditions. We will also visit Yanque, a town located in the heart of the Colca Valley.

We will return to Chivay to have lunch on your own and we will say goodbye to the city to start our way back to Arequipa. There, the tour will end around 5:00 pm.
