Join us in this unforgettable tour from Lima to Caral.  The discovery of the Sacred City of Caral in 1994 was a landmark in the history of the world. Carbon 14 tests made in 2000 proved its antiquity to be more than 2627 BC. As a result, Caral became the oldest city in the Americas and the second oldest in the world. Furthermore, together with Machu Picchu it is one of our most valuable UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

The civilization of Caral fluorished around 5000 years ago simultaneously with the Egyptian one. At that time people of Caral in this side of the world were also building stone pyramids. In this tour to Caral you will have chance to walk around and admire seven stone-made pyramids.  The biggest one is 18 mts high with a size equivalent to 4 soccer fields. Not only the pyramids but most of the buildings had a religious function. There are shrines for sacred fire and an amphitheater who may have served to atttend rituals.

All the complex which is about 1,546 acres (625 ha) shows an advanced level of technology. A very well organized society may have been the base to achieve such grade of development. Besides, no weapons, mutilated bodies or any trace of war conflicts have been found. On the contrary, the amount of jewelry and flutes found only show their love for art and music. Therefore, it seems that a very peaceful society inhabited Caral five thousand years ago. This and much more you will be able to learn in our tour from Lima to Caral.
