What your day looks like
Tour some of the most incredible archaeological sights in the world in this intriguing day trip. Visit the mysterious valley of the pyramids, the Tomb and treasures of the Lord of Sipan, and the Royal Tombs of Sipan Museum. After pick up from your hotel in Chiclayo, the tour will begin in Huaca Rajada where The Tomb of the Lord of Sipan was found. The tomb stands as evidence of the great wealth this culture possessed. National Geographic compares the discovery of this tomb to the discovery of the tomb of Pharaoh King Tutankhamen in the relative quantity of gold, precious stones, and fossil remains found. Then we will visit Tucume, also known as the Valley of Pyramids, a region shrouded in mystery with unexplained construction dating back to ancient times. As legend tells, the god Naylamp accompanied by Ceterni, the Queen, emerged from the sea bringing art and tools designed for construction. Archaeological findings reveal the roots of this culture and its role as a commercial hub for all the other cultures of the continent. Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. Depart to Lambayeque to visit the Royal Tombs of Sipan museum that is considered the best in Latin America because it exhibits one of the most important gold treasure discoveries in ancient Peru and the world. You'll view amazing artifacts of gold, silver, precious stones, and other metals. Imagine the magical and mystical world these people lived in as you browse figures of their culture before returning to your hotel. * This tour is also available in private service upon request.
