Itinerary: Nazca’s Cantalloc Aqueduct Tour
At the designated time you will be picked up from your hotel and then driven to the upper part of the Nazca Valley, towards the Cantalloc area.
During the journey we will visit the Inca ruins of Caxamarca, a tambo, which means a resting place, built a long time ago, when the Incas expanded their empire along the Peruvian coasts.
In this place we will explore the stone enclosures and receive interesting information about the history of the Incas from our guide.
Later we will visit an archaeological area known as Las Agujas, where it is possible to observe a huge trapezoid from the top of a small hill.
Here you will receive information about the Nazca Lines and have the opportunity to have a closer view of a famous design built over a thousand years ago.
Finally we will visit the aqueducts of Cantalloc, where you will witness the great ingenuity of the ancient inhabitants, who in their fight for survival built underground canals, which are still used today. Here we will talk about ancient hydraulic engineering, irrigation issues and the Nazca Culture. In the surroundings of the area you can also enjoy a natural setting covered with cotton, corn, potato plantations, etc. (the fruits are seen, depending on the season).
