Uncover the wonders of Northern Peru with everything from Desert Pyramids to Mountain Kingdoms with this exclusive tour. Your adventure begins in Chiclayo where you will be able to examine one of the most impressive historical museums on earth before discovering the ancient pyramids of Tucume - constructed over two thousand years ago. Your trip then continues onwards to Kuelap. Lost in the clouds, this amazing mountain fortress basks under the Peruvian sun amid an overgrowth of strikingly red bromeliads and hanging orchids. Through the ever impressive Uctubamba Valley, the tour takes you through to Cajarmarca where you’ll experience the city’s compelling history and its beautiful surroundings including the amazing Cumbemayo. You proceed onwards to Trujillo and the remarkable Temple of the Sun and Moon – the highest adobe structures built in the Pre-Columbian Americas – as well as the striking ruins of Chan Chan. At the end of your journey you will return to Lima. Our tours are tailor-made to meet the needs of all of our travelers, so whether you are a first-time explorer or a seasoned adventurer, one thing is certain; all of these incredible experiences and more await you with the following itinerary provided by Class Adventure Travel.

Kuelap has to be one of my most favorite destinations in Peru for a wide number of reasons – the main reasons however, are its remoteness and the feeling of utter solace one experiences above its majestic walls. With plenty of ancient ruins, an absence of people, and a vivid jungle character – Kuelap has an alluring nature that makes it highly recommendable. The ruins are fascinating and are a must see for those wanting to experience something a little different.
