Colca Splendor  (Full Day)

For the visitors who do not dispose of much time, but are looking forward to get to know one of the world’s deepest canyons ( 3,400 meters , at its deepest point), we have designed this program which works perfectly from the city of Arequipa. It requires a bit of effort on the departure schedule, but you can sleep during the trip. However, it really is worth it, given the impressive panorama offered by the canyon, its grand river, vertical cliffs, Incan benched terraces, in current agricultural production, as well as its typical villages and customs, and all of this crowned by the dominion of the condors´ flight.
