Itinerary

We will pick you up from your hotel and travel to the Lurin Valley, south of Lima. Our first stop is the Pachacamac Archaeological Sanctuary, the most important religious center of ancient Peru on the coast, dedicated to the god Pachacamac, creator of the universe.

For about two hours, you will explore temples, pyramids, and plazas built by the Lima, Wari, Ychsma, and Inca cultures. Our expert guide will share fascinating stories and traditions about this sacred historical site.

Next, we will visit a traditional Peruvian hacienda with beautiful gardens. Here, we will enjoy an exclusive show featuring Peruvian Paso Horses, famous for their smooth and elegant gait. The riders, known as "chalanes," will wear traditional attire while demonstrating the skill and grace of these horses.

You will also witness a Marinera show, the traditional dance of the Peruvian coast, which combines elegant movements between the rider on horseback and a dancer on the ground.

To finish, you will enjoy a delicious lunch with typical Peruvian dishes in a quiet, natural setting. Afterward, we will take you back to your hotel in Lima with unforgettable memories of this experience.
