Discover the history, architecture, and landscapes of Arequipa on this 2-day program that combines a sightseeing tour of the White City with an experience at the quarries where the distinctive Arequipa ashlar stone originates.

Day 1 – Arequipa Sightseeing Tour
Start by exploring the historic center of Arequipa, known for its sillar buildings and colonial architecture. Visit the Plaza de Armas, one of the most iconic places in the city, where you can admire the Cathedral and the Cloisters of the Society of Jesus.

Continue to St. Catherine's Monastery, a colonial complex that preserves streets, courtyards, gardens, cloisters, stone washbasins, sillar walls, and an important art collection. Afterwards, visit the countryside areas of Carmen Alto and the Yanahuara Vantage Point to enjoy a panoramic view of the city and the Misti, Chachani, and Pichu Pichu volcanoes, depending on weather conditions.

Day 2 – Ashlar Route and Quarries of Arequipa
Explore the sites connected to the origin and production of sillar, a volcanic stone used in many traditional buildings in Arequipa. The tour begins in Cayma, where you'll make a brief visit to its main square and church, before continuing to a vantage point with views of the city's main volcanoes.

At the Añashuayco Quarry, you'll learn about the work of master stonemasons and the process of extracting, shaping, and carving ashlar. You will then continue to the Quebrada de Culebrillas, a small natural canyon where you will take a hike of approximately 20 minutes between rock walls that can reach 15 to 20 meters in height. During the visit, you'll also be able to see traces of rock art and the traditional apachetas, made up of stones stacked as an expression of gratitude to nature.
