Overview

Route of the Sillar, Viewpoints of the Valley and Volcanoes We enter in the middle of huge volcanic stone farellones 30 meters high carved "to combo and chisel", colonial facades and carvings. Here we will have an illustrious moment with the master stonecutters, known as "cutters". They will reveal their live work techniques so that later we can do it with our own hands. We will see giant block falls and the wonderful experience of watching small blocks of ashlar made using ancestral instruments used from generation to generation. Heading to the Mirador de Carmen Alto !!! We will visit the traditional and unmissable viewpoints of Arequipa, Mirador de Carmen Alto to appreciate the Chilina Valley and our 3 volcanoes, Chachani, Misti and Pichupichu. The second viewpoint is in Yanahuara. Here we will eat rich traditional desserts and buy unique handmade souvenirs in the square.

Sillar route

Published on Jun, 2024

The tour was good and Sandra our guide was great! We were able to spend as much time in each place as we want and Sandra took photos of us both. Great experience!

Highly recommend Ruta de Sillar tour!

Published on Nov, 2023

This was an amazing tour of the Ruta de Sillar, including stops at the Mirador de Yanahuara and Mirador de Carmen Alto. Our guide Olivia was fantastic at providing us with information and answering any questions we had. It was also very convenient that the tour company offered to pick us up and drop us off at our hotel directly. We appreciated their timeliness, hospitality, and knowledge of the area and culture.

A wonderful morning out!

Published on Apr, 2023

Our trip to Sillar was on time, comprehensive, and good value for money. Everything was included, including water and entry. The car was clean, working seatbelts, and safe driving. Our guide, Sline, was so knowledgeable and always had something to add. We never felt rushed. At the mine, we saw other groups stop for 15 minutes to take photos and go, while we walked through and were given explanations of the statues' significance, cost, etc. So I was glad to be on my tour. I would recommend it for a casual morning out.

Amazing Yanahuara!

Published on Sep, 2021

The tour of the quarry was awesome but also a little sad to see the craftsman working in that heat... I loved Yanahuara District!! It is a beautiful district with a great viewpoint:) Also has the most beautiful park with fountain in the middle.

Siilar deposits in Arequipa

Published on Feb, 2020

This is one of the many sites where you can get an idea of volcanic explosions and lava deposits that was used to built the city of Arequipa. There are any carvings on the lava, as there are in the actual city around the old buildings including the cathedral.
