Archaeological

What does Peru mean for archaeology lovers? It’s a gem, a hidden treasure. Peru is one of six places in the world where the origin of civilization took place. The richness and complexity of its cultures -which ends with the Incas- is extraordinary. In these archaeological trips, we propose several itineraries to introduce the most interesting Peruvian prehispanic cultures: sites or areas that are not yet in the mass tourism scope; interesting museums, and some hands-on experiences….all of this just to begin with, if you are interested in going deeper, just ask … the most interesting is yet to be discovered.
