Half-Day Private Tour of Arequipa and Santa Catalina Convent
Start your journet with a hotel pickup, followed by a transfer to the Carmen Alto viewpoint. Here, one can savour the rural charm of Arequipa, with the Chili river flowing gently below and the majestic Misti and Chachani volcanoes standing tall in the backdrop. The next stop is the Yanahuara viewpoint, a 19th-century construction that offers an impressive view of the cityscape, under the watchful gaze of the imposing Misti.
The tour then proceeds to the Basilica of the Company of Jesus, a striking architectural masterpiece of neo-renaissance style, constructed from white stone known as "ashlar". Following this, the Main Square awaits, serving as a central hub for urban encounters.
The final destination is the renowned Convent of Santa Catalina. This prestigious 16th-century institution comprises plazas, cloisters, and streets. It was once home to daughters of distinguished families, who were cared for by the convent’s nuns.
This immersive journey provides a comprehensive insight into the rich history and culture of Arequipa.
