Watch Andean condors soaring in front of your eyes at one of the world's deepest and most beautiful canyons.
The Colca Canyon is considered to be one of the world's deepest canyons and home to the Andean Condor. There is no better place to watch these majestic birds than from the Cruz del Condor, where they can be seen frequently at close quarters. Snow-cappped mountain peaks on either side frame the magnificent scenery, which is in places green and almost tropical, in others rocky and precipitous. The local Colca people still cultivate terraces along the canyon walls in many places, and many traditional towns and villages can be found all along the length of the canyon. The small, unpretentious town of Chivay is undoubtedly the most important in the area, found on the upper part of the river where the canyon is not so deep.

Our hotels were very good and our guides, Marvin, Mariel & Fernando were excellent: They had exceptional knowledge and made absolutely sure that our Peruvian experience was of the highest quality.
We have been impressed by the reception and assistance of your partners throughout the trip.
We had 4 guides who were very different in character, but they were all excellent, friendly, efficient, knowledgeable and informative, especially Marvin Abanto in Lima.
Guides were exceptional: Enthusiasm & freshness they showed was as if they had just started and wanted to impress this is to be commended when considering they've been doing the job for many years.
You planned our itinerary perfectly and adjusted everything to suit our requirements. We feel privileged to have spent this time in Peru and will remember forever. Thank you.
We've always organized our own holiday. This was our 1st organized tour that we have been on – And we were completely satisfied with the organisation: Our expectations were more than satisfied!
The handover from one guide to another was seamless. From entering Peru at Lima airport and at every stage of the holiday, every guide had full information of our itinerary, this was very impressive!
