History and nature merge in this tour to Lampa, Pucara and Tinajani. Enjoy the architecture of the pink city, pre-Inca archaeological sites, and one of the most beautiful natural landscapes of Puno.

Description

After picking you up at your hotel in Puno at the scheduled time, we'll begin our tour to Pucará and Lampa. The 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, highlighting the color of its houses. We'll walk to the church of Santiago Apostle, the main temple, and visit its interior to learn about its 17th-century history.

Afterwards, we'll return to our vehicle and head to Pucará. We'll learn about one of the main pre-Inca civilizations by visiting the lithic museum, showcasing cave sculptures and ceramics of the ancient Pucara culture.

We'll also visit the archaeological site of Pucará, whose origins date back to 200 BC, where we'll see ancient ruins and remains of stepped pyramids.

Next, you'll have free time for lunch before we start our journey to the cañón de Tinajani for a walking tour to admire its impressive rock formations.

The excursion will conclude after 10 hours of sightseeing, after we drop you off at your hotel in Puno.
