ITINERARY AREQUIPA CITY TOUR

⛪️ We begin our Arequipa City Tour with a guided walk through the Santa Catalina Monastery, a stunning complex built in 1579. With its vibrant colors and colonial charm, it still shelters cloistered nuns and preserves centuries of history. While exploring its narrow alleys, you’ll feel like stepping into another time.

🏛️ Then, we continue to the majestic Plaza de Armas and the Cathedral, both essential landmarks of Arequipa. From there, we’ll visit the Church and Cloisters of the Society of Jesus, where you’ll admire the Chapel of San Ignacio—famous for its vivid murals and detailed domes.

🏠 Later on, we head to the Tristán del Pozo Mansion, a fine example of colonial architecture made from volcanic stone (ashlar). Today, it houses an art gallery and a small museum that beautifully displays local heritage.

🕍 Finally, our last stop is the San Francisco Complex, featuring multiple temples, including the Tercera Orden, built after the 1784 earthquake. Along the way, you’ll enjoy stories, insights, and little-known facts about Arequipa’s traditions.

🎯 This Arequipa City Tour blends history, art, and architecture in one immersive experience, making it a must-do for culture lovers.
