Top Huaraz Historical Tours

Explore plazas, storehouses, and ceremonial structures built by ancient Inca on a full-day trip from Huaraz to Huanuco Pampa, an archeological site perched high on an Andean plateau. Coordinating a local guide with round-trip transport brings the little-visited site within day-tripping distance of Huaraz, and you’ll have spectacular views as you cross the Cordillera Blanca mountain range.

The UNESCO–listed ruins at Chavín de Huántar rank among the most important historic sites of interest in Peru, with pre-Incan structures dating back to 1200 BC. On this tour, reach the archaeological site with ease from Huaraz and take in the nearby attraction of Lake Querococha on the same trip. Discover rich pre-Incan heritage and impressive natural beauty, and see the best of northern Peru with ease—with round-trip travel from central Huaraz included.

The archaeological site of Huánuco Pampa offers valuable insight into Inca society, but exploring without a guide means missing the site’s hidden secrets. On this tour, reach Huánuco Pampa in comfort by air-conditioned coach from your Huaraz hotel, and listen as your guide brings its Inca history to life. Gain insight into Huánuco Pampa’s role in Inca culture, and learn how different ethnic groups worked together for the common good.
