Welcome to Chiclayo
In the early morning, you’ll be met upon arrival in Chiclayo, a charming colonial town founded in 1560. Join your guide to begin your exploration into the ancient cultures of northern Peru, beginning with in-depth sightseeing at Huaca Rajada, the site of an amazing archaeological discovery made in 1987. The Tomb of the Lord of Sipán is the 1,700-year-old burial site of an important governor of the ancient Moche civilization. Remarkably preserved, the excavation revealed his noble attire and accessories including necklaces, breastplates, ear spools, nose rings, helmets, bracelets and scepters made of gold and silver, amazing pieces that you’ll see in the Tumbas Reales Museum built specially to house these treasures.. You will also visit the Tucume Pyramids, an important ceremonial complex of 26 pyramids constructed nearly 1,000 years ago.
