What you can expect

Welcome to Puerto Salaverry and its fascinating surroundings! A day filled with history, culture, and the beauty of northern coast of Peru awaits you.

We will begin by heading towards the archaeological complex of El Brujo. Enjoy the journey as we provide you with information about the rich history of this region. El Brujo, located in the Trujillo region of Peru, is a historical treasure that unveils captivating aspects of the Moche culture, a pre-Inca civilisation that thrived between the 1st and 7th centuries AD. This archaeological site is renowned for its magnificent adobe pyramid, the Huaca Cao Viejo, distinguished by its impressive polychrome reliefs depicting human and divine figures.

The discovery of El Brujo in 1990 revealed the tomb of the Lady of Cao, a significant figure in Moche society. This ruler was buried with remarkable ornaments and funerary goods, marking a milestone in understanding the culture and gender hierarchy in the ancient Moche civilisation. The tattoos on her well-preserved body provide clues about her status and roles in the society of that time.

Next, we will head to the Museum of Cao, where you can learn more about the Moche culture and the remarkable history of the Lady of Cao. Get ready to discover fascinating archaeological pieces and the legacy of this ancient civilisation.

For those seeking a unique gastronomic experience, we will make a stop at a tourist restaurant in the beach of Huanchaco. Taste the delicious local dishes while enjoying the seaside view (optional). Relax and relish the charm of Huanchaco Beach. Take a stroll along the shore, observe the famous totora reed watercraft, and feel the sea breeze while capturing unforgettable moments.

It is time to return to Puerto Salaverry, carrying amazing memories of this day filled with discoveries and spectacular landscapes. We hope you have enjoyed this enriching experience and wish you a pleasant journey ahead.
