Description
Join this fun tour to explore the iconic neighborhoods of Campiña Iqueña and discover its famous wineries. Enjoy generous tastings of pisco, wine and cachinas at three of the best wineries.
11:00 H. Pick up at the hotel at the agreed time and start of the visit. "El Catador" Artisanal Winery: Without a doubt, the most popular winery among national and foreign tourists who visit the lands of Ica, winner of national awards thanks to its original products such as the semi-prepared Pisco Sour and the fine Pisco Cream. It is located in the Tres Esquinas hamlet in the Subtanjalla district. Lazo Museum - Artisanal Winery: While it is true that Piscos, Wines and Cachinas are the main attraction of this tour, it is worth noting that the Lazo Winery keeps in its authentic Spanish cellar (cava) from the 16th and 17th centuries, not only its wine products, but also another additional attraction: A rustic museum spontaneously established in the same winery, where you can see collector's items such as mummified trophy heads, ceramics, goldsmithing, remains of cloaks from pre-Hispanic cultures and other pieces such as weapons of all kinds and from all periods; also paintings and stuffed animals among other collectible artifacts. It is located in the Camino de Reyes hamlet. Tacama Industrial Winery: Located in one of the oldest estates in the valley. It was built in the 16th century and has colonial architecture. It produces wines and piscos of excellent quality. When the Spanish arrived in Peru, they introduced the vine and it spread rapidly. Carabantes created the Tacama vineyard, in the oasis of Ica, which is the oldest in Peru. The vineyard has a total area of 180 hectares and is located in the Ica Valley, a fertile oasis surrounded by deserts 300 km from Lima and 400 meters above sea level. It is one of the most important in the country. Return to the hotel or the bus terminal.
