Day 1

Discover Arequipa from an authentic and sophisticated perspective, where the excellence of its gastronomy, the richness of its colonial heritage, and the majesty of its landscapes come together to create an unforgettable experience. Designed for travelers seeking much more than a traditional tour, this experience invites you to connect with the essence of the White City through its flavors, history, and most iconic landmarks.

The experience begins with lunch at La Nueva Palomino, one of Arequipa’s most emblematic picanterías and a guardian of traditional Arequipa cuisine. In this renowned establishment, known for preserving ancestral recipes and authentic regional flavors, you will enjoy a selection of specialties prepared with local ingredients and techniques passed down from generation to generation. More than a meal, it is an encounter with the gastronomic identity of Arequipa, where every dish tells a story and every flavor reflects the heritage of its land.

After lunch, we will visit the Carmen Alto Viewpoint, offering impressive views of the Chilina Valley and the Misti, Chachani, and Pichu Pichu volcanoes; the iconic Yanahuara Viewpoint, famous for its ashlar stone arches and spectacular panorama; and the Historic Center of Arequipa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where colonial architecture reflects the essence of the White City.

Finally, we will explore the charming San Lázaro Neighborhood, the historic heart where Arequipa was born. Its cobblestone streets, peaceful plazas, and centuries-old mansions invite you to slow down and discover the most authentic and evocative side of the city.

At the end of the tour, return to your hotel or enjoy an optional visit to the Santa Catalina Monastery, a magnificent 16th-century architectural gem and one of the largest and most impressive convents in Latin America. Its colorful cloisters, cobblestone streets, and centuries of history offer a unique opportunity to discover the colonial heritage of Arequipa.
