We'll be waiting for you at our office in Chivay from 12:30 p.m. to 1:10 p.m.

We'll leave Chivay at approximately 1:15 pm.
On the way from Chivay to Puno, we will make the following stops:

• “Mirador de los Andes”: We'll stop to admire the volcanoes Ampato, Sabancaya, Huallca Huallca, Mismi (the source of the Amazon River), and the Cordillera de Chila. You'll also see the “Apachetas” (in ancient times, travellers left these small stone towers as offerings to their gods).

• Tocrapampa: We'll make a comfort stop to observe South American camelids such as llamas and alpacas grazing in their natural habitat. With a bit of luck, we'll also see vicuñas, animals prized for their exceptionally fine and expensive fibre in the textile industry.

• “Patahuasi” (Pampa Cañahuas): Located in the Aguada Blanca National Reserve, which lies behind the Chachani volcano. Here, we can enjoy hot drinks made with natural herbs such as chachacoma and muña. At this stop, you can also use the bathrooms and buy handicrafts and souvenirs.

• Lagunillas: This vantage point offers a panoramic view of the small lagoons that look like mirrors reflecting the sky. It is also the habitat of Andean flamingos and other birds (depending on the season). Without a doubt, it's a great opportunity to take photos. Finally, we will arrive in the city of Puno.

We will arrive in the city of Puno at approximately 7:00 PM. If your hotel is located in the Historic Centre of Puno, we may be able to drop you off at your hotel.
