Overview

The tour begins at 7:00 a.m. with pick-up from your hotel in Puno and departure towards Lampa, where we arrive at around 9:00 a.m. We visit the Church of Santiago Apóstol (1795, historic heritage), which preserves a replica of Michelangelo’s Pietà, as well as its catacombs and the colonial stone bridge of Calicanto.

We then continue towards Pucara (around 11:45 a.m.). We explore the Kalasaya complex and the Lithic Museum, where anthropomorphic sculptures found in the area are exhibited. After the visit, we enjoy a box-lunch style Andean lunch.

In the afternoon we head to Tinajani Canyon (Ayaviri district), arriving at around 3:00 p.m. This valley is famous for its forest of volcanic rock formations over 50 meters high, carved by erosion into surprising shapes. Here you will also find three natural stone springs shaped like jars —the origin of the name— linked to local legends. It is an ideal place to recharge your energy and feel the mysticism of the highlands.

Finally, we begin the return to Puno at 4:30 p.m., arriving back in the city at approximately 7:00 p.m.
