Your journey begins with pickup from your hotel at the scheduled time, departing from Paracas towards Tambo Colorado, located around 1.5 hours away. Along the way, you’ll enjoy breathtaking desert landscapes, rural scenes, and traditional Andean villages. We will make a few scenic stops, including a view of the fascinating “Sand Dragon” carved naturally into the mountain near Humay. Tambo Colorado is one of the best-preserved Inca sites on the Peruvian coast, yet remains off the typical tourist trail, offering a deeper look into local rural life and authentic Peruvian culture. Upon arrival, we’ll explore both the upper sector and the main courtyard of the site, where original red and yellow adobe walls still stand proudly. A guided tour of approximately one hour will uncover the site’s fascinating history, followed by a visit to the small but informative on-site museum. Before returning to Paracas, we will pass through the city of Pisco for a brief optional visit. The tour concludes back at your hotel, offering a complete and enriching cultural experience in the Ica region. Book now for an eco-tourism experience you won’t forget!
