About this tour


Experience an exhilarating archaeological adventure that will take you back in time! Our tour begins with a pickup from your hotel located in the city of Chiclayo, starting an enthralling journey into the mysterious treasures of ancient Peru.

The first stop on our exciting itinerary is Huaca Rajada, a fascinating archaeological site that holds centuries of history and mystery. Also known as "The Lord of Sipán," this ancient adobe pyramid has become an archaeological icon of the northern region of the country.

Surrounded by an impressive desert landscape, Huaca Rajada was accidentally discovered in 1987 when looters attempted to raid ancestral tombs in search of lost treasures. However, what they found there surpassed all expectations: an intact royal tomb belonging to an ancient Mochica ruler. This discovery revolutionized the understanding of Mochica culture and left the world in awe.

Inside the tomb, astonishing treasures, precious artifacts, and valuable objects made of gold, silver, and copper were found, meticulously arranged alongside the ruler and his entourage. The magnificence of the ornamentation and the richness of the burials reveal the high hierarchy and sophistication of this ancient civilization.

We will continue our journey to the renowned Brüning Museum, a treasure in itself, housing an impressive collection of 1400 archaeological pieces. As we explore its halls, we will witness wonders from over 10 thousand years ago.

Our last stop, but no less astounding, will be at the prestigious Royal Tombs of Sipán Museum. Here, you will be amazed by a dazzling collection of gold jewelry and funerary ceramics that once adorned nobles and ancestral leaders—a true display of the wealth and artistry of a bygone era.

To fully cater to your preferences, we offer two exciting visiting options. If you have half a day, you can delight in the splendor of the Brüning Museum and immerse yourself in its historical legacy. But if your interest lies in the fascinating collection of royal tombs, choose the half-day option that will take you through a world of wealth and mystery at the Royal Tombs Museum.

Don`t miss the opportunity to live this unforgettable archaeological adventure with us. Let our expert guides accompany you on this journey through time as we unravel the mysteries of the ancient Peruvian civilization.
