From R$407.77 /person
A tour that offers beautiful scenery and a visit to the Salinas Lagoon, which forms a spectacular body of water during the rainy season.
We begin with hotel pick-up in the city center. We start our tour to Laguna de Salinas with several stops. Our first visit will be to the Mirador de los Volcanes (Volcano Viewpoint) in the Chiguata district, which takes approximately 45 minutes to reach. From there, we can observe our iconic volcanoes and take photos. Later, we will arrive in the town of Chiguata and visit the main square, where the traditional Church of the Holy Spirit is located. Afterwards, we will enjoy a traditional local breakfast. We will continue our journey, approximately one hour later, with a stop at Alto Simbral (4,200 m), where we can observe local plants such as Queñua, Yareta, Tola, and many more. Continuing our tour, we will arrive at Laguna de Salinas, where we will stay for 1 to 1.5 hours, making several stops to observe flamingos, parihuanas, and water mirrors (January to March), as well as vicuñas, llamas, and alpacas (year-round). During the dry season (April to December), we will visit the salt extraction centers, where imagination is essential for taking spectacular photos. We will begin our journey back to the city of Arequipa. We will arrive in the city and be dropped off near the Plaza de Armas.
