Do you want to know where the tomb of the powerful Lord of Sipan was found? You'll discover this by the hand of an exclusive guide on this private tour of the Huaca Rajada de Sipan!

Description

At the selected time, we'll pick you up from your hotel and commence our private tour. For two hours, we'll explore the archaeological site where the remains of this governor of ancient Peru were uncovered, with findings currently housed in the Site Museum. This museum recreates the burial chambers of the Mochica elite, including the Lord Warrior, the Warrior Priest, and the Noble Warrior.

We'll discuss why Huaca Rajada is deemed the most significant ceremonial site for the Mochica culture in northern Peru. Following the museum visit, we will proceed to the two adobe platforms of this pyramid and examine its altars, including the tallest platform at 35 meters high.

Next, we'll observe a mausoleum originally consisting of 6 levels, where we can appreciate the cemetery layout and the arrangement of noble burials.

Finally, we'll conclude our informative tour of pre-colonization culture at the museum entrance.
