Itinerary

  1. Cantalloc Aqueduct

    2 hours Admission included

    Our guide driver will pick you up from your hotel or the previously coordinated point.

    The aqueducts are located 4 km from the city. The Nascas stood out for their advanced technology and hydraulic engineering, building an impressive network of aqueducts, canals and wells that allowed them to permanently supply water to the farmlands. This set of aqueducts, canals and wells were called puquios, a Quechua word meaning fountain, spring or well.

    Free time 15 minutes.

  2. Cahuachi

    2 hours

    Continuing the tour we leave the city towards Cahuachi, located 28 kilometers from Nazca.

    Cahuachi means “place where the seers live.” It is a citadel built in adobe, where ceremonial pyramids stand out: the Great Pyramid, the Great Temple, the Stepped Temple and the Mounds. It is located on a sloping terrain facing the Nazca lines.

    Free time 15 minutes.
