What you can expect

  • Discover Cajamarca through a local and interactive experience, accompanied throughout the journey by a professional tour guide and tourist transportation between each destination. Rather than simply visiting different attractions, you will have the opportunity to discover local traditions, meet artisans, taste regional products, and take part in experiences that are an important part of Cajamarca’s identity.

    Begin your journey at Qhapaq Ñan, where your guide will accompany you and share information about the history and significance of this ancient route. During the visit, you will explore the Alameda and see representations of the 14 Inca rulers while learning about Cajamarca’s cultural heritage.

    Continue to the Los Sapitos Zoolithic Complex, where you will explore a landscape featuring unusual rock formations shaped naturally over time. Your guide will explain the characteristics of the area and accompany you as you walk around and observe formations resembling frogs and other figures.

    You will then travel to Namora, known as the Land of Guitars, for one of the main experiences of the tour. Visit a traditional guitar workshop, where you will meet local artisans and see how these instruments are handcrafted. Your guide will help you understand the process, materials, and techniques used, while also explaining the importance of this tradition to the local community.

    After discovering Namora’s guitar-making tradition, enjoy a taste of its traditional alfajores and have a local lunch of your choice. Your guide can help you understand the available options and introduce you to local dishes and culinary traditions.

    The experience continues to San Nicolás Lake, where you will take a ride on a traditional reed boat. Your guide will accompany you during the activity, sharing information about the surrounding environment and the local traditions connected to the lake while you enjoy the scenery.

    Throughout the experience, you will have tourist transportation and the assistance of your guide, who will be present at the different stages of the tour to provide information, answer your questions, offer guidance, and help you make the most of each activity.

    This experience combines craftsmanship, gastronomy, nature, history, and local traditions, allowing you to discover Cajamarca through its people, flavors, landscapes, and customs.
