Itinerary
DAY 1: VISIT TO THE SACRED CITY OF CARAL
At 6:00 AM, the tour will begin with pickup at the hotel, heading north to Caral, the oldest city in Peru. Declared A UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2009, Caral is located 23 km from the town of Supe, at kilometer 180 of the Pan-American Highway. This archaeological site, discovered by archaeologist Ruth Shady Solís, changed the course of Peruvian pre-Hispanic history, being the site of the first Andean civilization that established the foundations of a unique social organization. Along with Mesopotamia, Egypt, India, China, and Mesoamerica, Caral is one of the original centers of culture in the world, considered the oldest civilization in Peru and the Americas, as well as the third oldest place on the planet. During the visit, participants will admire the main pyramid, which is approximately the size of four football fields and rises to a height of 60 feet (18 meters), as well as explore the courtyards and amphitheater, all framed by stunning views of the surrounding valley.
