Description
Discover the best of the Colca Canyon in one day, and enjoy its beautiful landscapes and its history, narrated by an excellent guide. Experience the flight of the condor from the best vantage point in the Colca Canyon.
We will start with a pickup from your hotel between 3:00 AM and 3:30 AM, then head to the town of CHIVAY (the gateway to the Colca Valley), where we will stop for breakfast and later purchase our tourist tickets to enter Colca Canyon.
We will then continue our tour towards the Cruz del Cóndor viewpoint. Along the way, we will stop at various points to appreciate the Colca Valley experience. We will stop in the town of MACA, where we will find a variety of handicrafts and be able to see local people working in their traditional local attire. It is also an excellent place to try the Colca Valley's signature cocktail (Colca Sour), made from an Andean fruit called Sancayo. We will then continue our journey directly to the CONDOR CROSS, where we will be able to admire the geological formation of the Colca Canyon and the majestic flight of the ANDEAN CONDOR. We will spend approximately 1 hour at the Condor Cross viewpoint.
On the way back, we will make stops at viewpoints in the Colca Valley. For example, at the Mirador de Antahuilque, we will be able to see the pre-Inca terraces (andenerías). We will then head to the Chacapi Medicinal Hot Springs, with temperatures ranging from 30 to 40 degrees Celsius (86 to 104 degrees Fahrenheit), where we will spend approximately one hour. After these activities, we will head to a restaurant for lunch, where we will have a variety of local, national, and international dishes to choose from.
After lunch, we will begin our return journey to the city of Arequipa, making stops at the highest point of the tour (4,910 meters above sea level), the Volcanoes Viewpoint, and then at the Salinas y Aguada Blanca Nature Reserve to observe South American camelids, birds, and other animals in their natural habitat. We will arrive in Arequipa at approximately 5:00 PM.
