All about the trip

If you’re looking for the ultimate combination of Trujillo city sights and surrounding archeological attractions, this is it. In one activity- and history-filled day, take a private city tour to see attractions like the Urquiaga-Calonge House; tour the National University Museum of Archeology, Anthropology and History; visit the Temple of the Sun and Temple of the Moon; have lunch in the coastal village of Huanchaco; and explore the former Chimú capital of Chan Chan, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

In the morning we will visit the city of Trujillo with beautiful mansions, imposing portals, balconies and churches as well preserved. Then we will visit the Museum of Archeology of the "National University of Trujillo" for general recognition of the pre-Columbian cultures of the region. We continue with a visit to the impressive pyramids of the Sun and the Moon, the center of power in the valley of Trujillo during the Moche times. Note the amazing group of frescoes in adobe in one of the walls of the Temple of the Moon, unearthed by archeologists. We will continue toward Huanchaco, the ancestral fishing cove where you will appreciate the old boats called "Caballitos de Totora" with which it maintains the tradition of artisanal fisheries. Lunch in Huanchaco and afternoon visit to the ancient citadel of Chan Chan. We will enter the palace Nik-An, located in the south west part of Chan Chan crossing its ceremonial plazas, altars, reservoirs, barns, cemeteries, etc.
