Why choose this tour ?

Come with us and get to know Caral, which is the oldest manifestation of civilization in Peru and in the American continent due to its 5000 years old. It is made up of 32 monumental buildings, integrated into a complex system of settlements that show a strong religious ideology, among which are ceremonial buildings, residential sectors for people of different social ranks, a set of smaller temples and production workshops. Caral led a system of settlements that brought together 24 similar sites, although smaller, located in the Supe Valley. It expresses the complexity and development of a model of early sociopolitical and economic organization during the Late Archaic Period (5000-3800 Bc) independently originated by the Andean societies that inhabited this small fertile valley on the Peruvian central coast.
