Experience the breathtaking scenery of Colca Canyon on a private guided day trip through the Peruvian Andes from Arequipa.
Travel across dramatic high-altitude plains surrounded by volcanoes, mountains, and sweeping Andean landscapes as you journey toward one of the deepest canyons in the world. Along the way, pass through the Salinas y Aguada Blanca Reserve, home to wild vicuñas, alpacas, and llamas roaming freely across the plateau.
Continue to Cabanaconde, a traditional Andean village perched along the canyon rim, and enjoy panoramic views from the famous Mirador de San Miguel overlooking Colca Canyon and the surrounding mountains.
Visit Cruz del Cóndor, Colca Canyon’s most iconic viewpoint, where you can watch majestic Andean condors gliding above the canyon on rising thermal winds — one of Peru’s most unforgettable natural spectacles.
On the return journey, pass through Chivay and stop at scenic viewpoints surrounded by volcanoes and vast mountain landscapes before returning comfortably to Arequipa.
