You’ll then continue on past the city before stopping to meet the indigenous community of the Kukama, where you’ll have the chance to get to know their dances and customs and to learn about their culture. After the visit, you’ll take a walk along the shore of the community of Father Cocha and learn about the curious history of its founder.
