Overview

Visiting Caral you will experience the first cradle of civilisation emerged in about 5000BC, these ancient people with bountiful food on hand in the rich ocean, rose at around the same time as five other major civilisations in the world. They built stone pyramids here, for instance, at exactly the same time that the Egyptians were building their much more famous counterparts.
If this new advanced culture was not famous for art or ceramics, it was its architecture that was its strength. The same grand pyramids and temples of worship that are still partly standing around.
You will discover this fascinating place in a private car that will pick you up from your hotel and with a bilingual guide from Lima, who will translate what the authorized guides in Caral will explan during the tour.
Then you will visit Bandurria Bandurria an early coastal fishing settlement featuring the first evidence of a ceremonial stone architecture.
