Chan Chan + Huanchaco Resort Tour
Day trip to Chan Chan
We'll meet up on Jiron Orbegoso Street in Trujillo, where we'll gather before embarking on a journey to the pre-Columbian marvel of Chan Chan, an ancient adobe city once belonging to the Chimu kingdom. Ready? Let's go!
After an hour-long journey, we'll arrive at our destination. This prehispanic settlement belongs to the Chimú kingdom. Did you know that it's considered the largest clay city in the world?
We'll spend an hour and a half exploring the Nik An Palace, adorned with captivating monochromatic reliefs.
Following our Chan Chan adventure, we'll make our way to Huanchaco Beach, renowned globally for its powerful waves. Named after "guaukocha," or "lagoon of golden fish," we'll have around an hour of free time in Huanchaco to enjoy lunch or a leisurely stroll along the shore, all while marveling at the caballitos de totora – traditional boats crafted from local reeds – a unique sight to behold!
From Huanchaco, we'll journey back to Trujillo. You can expect to return to your hotel approximately 4 hours hours after our adventure begins.
