Description of the Tour Arequipa Adventure – 3days / 2nihgt (Arequipa, Colca Canyon).

Day 1: AREQUIPA ADVENTURE – CAMPIÑAS TOUR:

Arequipa, often referred to as the “White City” due to its historic buildings made of white volcanic stone, serves as the perfect starting point for your adventure. Begin your journey by exploring the historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Plaza de Armas, surrounded by colonial-era buildings, provides a glimpse into the city’s architectural grandeur.

Visit the Santa Catalina Monastery, a stunning complex that feels like a city within a city. Wander through its narrow alleys, vibrant courtyards, and religious art, gaining insight into the cloistered life led by nuns during colonial times.

In the evening, savor traditional Peruvian cuisine at one of the local restaurants. Arequipa is renowned for its culinary delights, and sampling dishes like rocoto relleno (stuffed spicy pepper) and adobo (marinated meat) is a must.

Day 2: COLCA CANYON TOUR

Rise early and embark on a thrilling journey to Colca Canyon, one of the world’s deepest canyons and home to the majestic Andean condors. The scenic drive takes you through high-altitude landscapes, providing breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains.

Upon reaching Colca Canyon, take a short hike to the Cruz del Condor viewpoint. Here, witness the awe-inspiring sight of these colossal birds gliding on the thermals, offering a rare and captivating spectacle.

For the adventurous at heart, consider trekking deeper into the canyon or trying your hand at white-water rafting in the Colca River. Alternatively, relax in the nearby hot springs, surrounded by the stunning natural beauty of the canyon.

Day 3: MIRADOR DEL CONDOR

On your final day, delve into the cultural richness of Arequipa by visiting the Juanita Museum, home to the well-preserved mummy of an Inca maiden discovered atop Mount Ampato. Gain insights into Inca rituals, customs, and the fascinating discoveries made by archaeologists in the region.

Wrap up your Arequipa adventure with a stroll through the San Camilo Market, where vibrant stalls offer a myriad of local products, from fresh produce to handmade crafts. This is the perfect place to pick up souvenirs and immerse yourself in the local atmosphere
