Descrizione
Enjoy a unique experience with the local people of the stone village of Sibayo, where they will teach us about their customs and way of life in the Colca Valley.
DAY 01
The day begins with a 7:30 am pickup from your hotel in the city center to head to the Salinas and Aguada Blanca National Reserve, at an altitude of over 4,000 meters, to spot local wildlife and Andean camelids such as llamas, alpacas, vicuñas, and guanacos. We will also stop in the community of Patahuasi to enjoy mate or Andean herbal tea to help us acclimatize to the altitude.
We'll then continue our journey through the Andean highlands, enjoying beautiful views among grasslands and wetlands where, with any luck, we'll see Andean flamingos depending on the season. We'll then reach the highest point of our trip, Patapampa (4,890 meters), where we can see the Andes mountain range and the region's active volcanoes. We'll arrive in Chivay at around 1:00 p.m. for an optional lunch (45 soles).
In the afternoon, we will have the option of visiting the thermal baths (15 soles extra cost).
At 7:00 p.m., we'll have dinner with a local dance show. This show lasts for 2 hours, during which guests can enjoy and participate, as well as take souvenirs and photos in local costumes.
DAY 02
6:30 am Pickup in Chivay to start the tour to the Condor Vantage Point and the Colca Canyon. Along the way, we'll make sightseeing stops to explore the beautiful villages of the Colca Valley and their impressive terraces, which date back to Inca or pre-Inca times and are still used today to grow grains, cereals, and other Andean products.
We'll arrive at the Condor Vantage Point at 8:30 a.m. and stay for 1 hour to wait for the flight of the king of the mountains and see the depths of the canyon. We can also arrange an optional 45-minute hike, subject to prior coordination with our tour guide.
We then return to the town of Chivay, stop for an optional lunch, and head back to the city of Arequipa. The estimated time of arrival is 4:30 PM, when we will conclude our excursion very close to Arequipa's main square.
