Day of much history and culture - Amazing place. It is worth learning about the history and culture of Peru. The desert landscape next to the ocean is picturesque. Luckily we were able to count on the guide Eduardo who in addition to a great knowledge of history, still speaks Portuguese very well.

Family Fun - We had a wonderful time on this trip. We got picked up by the wonderful and knowledgeable Rosa and driven in a very nice van down to the site. Once there we got to tour the museum and then walk the grounds and view the ruins up close. It was so fascinating to have learned about a true hidden treasure.
