Description
After picking you up at your hotel in Puno at the scheduled time, we'll begin our tour to Pucará and Lampa. Our first stop will be at Lampa, known as the city of the seven wonders. We'll spend an hour and a half on a guided tour of the historic center of Lampa, visiting the church of Santiago Apostle, the main temple, and learning about its history from the 17th century.
Afterwards, we'll head to Pucará and visit the lithic museum, featuring cave sculptures and ceramics of the ancient Pucara culture. We'll explore the archaeological site of Pucará, dating back to 200 BC, which includes residential and ceremonial areas, ruins, and the remains of stepped pyramids dedicated to deities.
Next, you'll have free time for lunch. After eating, we'll journey to the cañón de Tinajani for a walking tour of its landscape marked by impressive giant rocks.
The excursion will conclude after 10 hours of sightseeing, as we drop you off at your hotel in Puno.
