Watch monumental sculptures, learn about their extraction process and take amazing photographs. Then visit Culebrillas Gorge, a narrow canyon of natural formations and pre-Hispanic petroglyphs. Enjoy an environment full of history, culture and unique landscapes under the guidance of local experts. Includes tourist transport, bilingual guide and entrance fees. An unforgettable experience to discover the origin and essence of the “White City” of Arequipa.
