Day 1

Day 1

Visit Quillarumiyoc and see the flight of the Condors

At 07:00am pick up from the hotel, later we drive until Chonta village which is located “Northwest” on the way to Abancay and Lima. We will make stops for photos and for visiting Quillarumiyoc; a nice Incan site with some temples; mainly for the moon. Stop at another Incan site called Tarawasi (the house of the Tara); which was the administrative center of the valley with lots of terraces and remains of temples, palaces, etc. After about 3 hours driving we arrive to the typical village of Chonta.
At 11:00am we start our gentle hike for about one hour and a half (3 km or 1.8 miles) until the Condor's view point. This viewpoint is located on the right side of the amazing Canyon of the Apurimac River up of 3300 meter sea level, from where we will see one of the deepest canyons of South America and the home of the Andean Condors. Normally we can see the majestic flight of the Andean condors, sometimes we can see at a close distance about 8-10 Condors.
After the condor's flight show we will hike back to Chonta where we take the transportation back to Cusco. Arrival time to Cusco 20:00pm.
Meals Included: Box-Lunch.
