-
Aldea de TulorWe will visit the most important sites such as the Tulor Village, the oldest inhabited vestige in the Atacama basin, located only 8 kms from San Pedro de Atacama. The remains indicate a labyrinth of semicircular dwellings that were built of adobe (mud and coiron straw) and communicated through interior patios. The first remains were found by the Jesuit priest Gustave Le Paige in 1956.
-
Pukara de QuitorLater we will go to the Pukará de Quitor, a 12th century building that has witnessed important historical events that are part of the local culture and was the place of entry to the oasis sector of San Pedro de Atacama, which had a great cultural exchange with other ethnic groups in the area such as the Chinchorro, Coyas, Aymara and Tiwanakus. Clay, wood, bones and textiles indicate that this culture had its heyday between 300 BC and 500 AD. Today, there are still more than 20,000 Atacameños living in small villages around San Pedro de Atacama. Finally we will visit the church of San Pedro in the historic centre of the town.
-
San Pedro de AtacamaThen we will visit "la comunidad de Coyo", a house where we will see how an Atacameño family mixes ancient traditions in local agriculture and tourism to offer a small tasting to the visitors. After this experience we will return to the hotel.
