Description
Begin your journey in Chivay (Colca) and travel towards Puno on a comfortable transfer designed for discovery. Along the way, you’ll pause at three remarkable locations that showcase the beauty and diversity of the Peruvian Andes.
Your first stop is the “Mirador de los Andes,” perched at 4,900 meters above sea level. Here, take in sweeping views of the Ampato, Sabancaya, Hualca Hualca, and Mismi volcanoes—the latter being the source of the Amazon River. Marvel at the Chila mountain range and spot traditional “apachetas” (stone cairns) built by travelers.
Continue to Patahuasi in the Pampa Cañahuas, part of the Aguada Blanca National Reserve. Surrounded by the dramatic backdrop of the Chachani volcano, this area is home to vicuñas, llamas, and alpacas. Warm up with herbal teas made from coca, chachacoma, or muña, and browse for local crafts and souvenirs. Facilities are available for your comfort.
The final scenic stop is Lagunillas, a viewpoint offering panoramic vistas of small lakes that mirror the sky. This tranquil spot is a haven for Andean flamingos and other birdlife—perfect for memorable photographs.
Your journey ends in Puno, where you’ll be dropped off at the Plaza de Armas or, if coordinated in advance, at your hotel. This transfer combines comfort with the chance to experience the landscapes and wildlife of the high Andes.
