Peru Tours & Travel | Arequipa & Colca Canyon 4 Day Tour Extension

Observe the Andean Condor at the Cruz del Condor lookout

Duration: 4 days
4+ Travelers: $560 per person
2-3 Travelers: $800 per person

This tour combines a visit to Arequipa, the beautiful "White City" of southern Peru, with a two-day excursion to the Colca canyon. Arequipa is visually stunning because of the white volcanic rock commonly used in colonial construction there. Colca canyon is one of the world's deepest gorges, where at the Cruz del Condor lookout, one may observe the Andean Condor, a magnificent bird with a wingspan of up to nearly nine-feet. This gorgeous flora and fauna is a highlight of any Peru tour.
