Beskrivning
Discover the origin of sillar, a unique material used in Arequipa's historic center, on a guided tour. Visit the Añashuayco Quarry, walk through the Culebrillas Ravine, and explore the city.
Pick up between 9am to 9:30am. Begin your day with a visit to the Añashuayco Quarry, where you can see the sillar extraction process and a large carving of the Church of the Society of Jesus. The quarry is operational, so you can watch the stonemasons at work.
Next, transfer to the Culebrillas Ravine, a small canyon formed by water with walls 15 to 20 meters high. Take a 20-minute walk through the canyon, where you can see petroglyphs created by the Wari culture over a thousand years ago.
Then, visit the Apachetas, stone formations that symbolize gratitude to nature and are considered a good luck charm. Afterward, head back to Arequipa. 1:30 pm you will be around the main square.
After your adventure on the Sillar Route, take a lunch break (not included) near the main square. Then, head to the meeting point in Santa Catalina 204 Arequipa to start your sunset city tour, one block and a half away from the main square. Look for the yellow umbrella.
Discover the highlights of Arequipa through a unique style of combining history with entertainment. Visit the Main Square, the Compañia Church, the Compañia Cloister, colonial houses, the El Solar Neighborhood, the San Lazaro Neighborhood, the Alpaca Zoo, the first jail, the first hotel, and Love Park. Learn about the history and culture of Arequipa from your guide, who works on a tips-only basis.
