Excellent trip to the Sillar Route with Arequipa Explorer

Published on May, 2024

I really liked this place, it is a different and unique place in all the cities of Peru, the guide really made us enjoy this tour by showing us and telling us the history, the work of the people who own this place, really if you like the culture and a little walk in the sun, I recommend this place

Arequipa Explorer taught us very well what La Ruta del Sillar means

Published on Apr, 2024

I REALLY LIKED THE TOUR, THE GUIDE HELPED US WITH THE PHOTOS AND EVEN THOUGH THE TIME IS SHORT AND THE TRAFFIC A LITTLE INCOMFORTABLE, THE ATTENTION OF THE AREQUIPA EXPLORER AGENCY AT ALL TIMES WAS PROFESSIONAL AND QUALITY

Knowing the Sillar route is something different on my tour of Peru

Published on Apr, 2024

The Sillar route is a place that could be worked on more in terms of tourist reception, however the attention of the friends of Arequipa Explorer was always good, the guide was very attentive, we highlighted the punctuality and the good explanations of the route.

Great experience pet friendly

Published on Oct, 2023

I’ve been solo traveling with my emotional support dog, and this tour was a great experience for both of us! The staff super friendly and supportive, the tour was very fun and the guide well informed. Culebrilla was an unique experience. I recommend take the 2pm one so you can enjoy the sunset at the end.
