Good tour except we should get...

California Tourist, Jan 2014

<p>Good tour except we should get credit as the guide told us there is no museum of sacred stones tour even though the tour title name suggests it and tour description says so. Victor needs to give a credit I believe and not in the form of a future tour as we are leaving the area. Also guide should wait until all the group is at his stopping point before starting his various presentations. He should use the mike in the bus as well or ask the group to move to the front seats.</p>

Itinerary

  • Tipon

    We will visit the awesome archaeological site of Tipon, another important shrine where people worshipped water, one of the elements of nature considered as sacred according to the Andean view of the world, which flows through canals and crosses terraces and waterfalls.

    3 hours

  • San Pedro Apostol de Andahuaylillas

    Our excursion will continue with a visit to Ritos Andinos Museum in Andahuaylillas. We will then visit the small but at the same time surprising village of Huaro, where we can find a fantastic church of the 16th century with prodigious murals of the great artist Tadeo Escalante.
