Join us to discover the pre-Columbian culture of Peru on this excursion to the Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon, Huanchaco and the citadel of Chan Chan.

Sun + Moon Pyramids, Huanchaco & Chan Chan Tour

We'll meet at the specified time at the Plaza de Armas in Trujillo and proceed to the archaeological site of the Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon, Huanchaco, and the citadel of Chan Chan.

First, we will stop at the Cerro Blanco handcraft workshop in the countryside of Moche to see a demonstration of ceramics making.

After this, we will visit the Pyramids of the Sun and the Moon archaeological site to learn about the Moche Precolombian era in the Trujillo Valley. We will spend about one hour here before heading to the town of Moche for lunch at your own expense, where you can try local cuisine. Next, we will explore the ancient citadel of Chan Chan, a World Heritage Site and the largest adobe city in the Americas, focusing on the Nik An Palace.

To conclude our trip, we will have some free time at the beach in Huanchaco before returning to the starting point after approximately 8 hours of activity.
