Revash & Leymebamba Mausoleums Tour

Pick-up from your hotel is at 7:50 am, followed by a trip south to the town of Santo Tomás. A 45-minute walk along the winding path will take us to the Revash archaeological complex.

The Revash mausoleums, known as chullpas by locals, are collective tombs carved into a rocky wall over a ravine, resembling ancient village houses of the Chachapoyas civilization.

Next, we will proceed to Leymebamba to visit the Mallqui Museum. Before entering, we will stop at a local restaurant for a traditional lunch.

At the museum, we will see over 200 mummies and an ethnographic collection, providing insights into the communities inhabiting the former Chachapoyas territory. The museum's gardens also feature beautiful orchids.

The tour concludes with a return to your hotel in Chachapoyas around 6 pm.
