To detail
The city of Chachapoyas is one of the oldest in Peru, founded back in 1832. Its warm and humid climate allows you to experience a unique blend of both Andean highlands and lush jungle landscapes during your visit. Day 1 of your itinerary begins with a City Tour that will take you through the surrounding areas and its main overlooks, such as the Sonche Canyon Viewpoint and the Huanca Urco Viewpoint. Afterward, you will have the late afternoon and evening free to acclimatize and enjoy the city at your own pace.
