Sillustani Tour – Half Day from Puno
Explore the impressive archaeological site of Sillustani, located 34 km from Puno, about a 40-minute bus ride away. This ancient pre-Inca cemetery was built by the Kolla culture and later used by the Incas. Its chullpas stand out, huge stone funerary towers that reach up to 12 metres in height, where the elite were buried along with their belongings.
The complex is located in a privileged natural setting on the shores of the beautiful Umayo Lagoon, making it an ideal place to take photographs and connect with the energy of the highlands. During the visit, the expert guide will explain the symbolism of the buildings, the megalithic construction techniques, and the worldview of the pre-Hispanic Andean cultures.
This tour is perfect for those who want a deep cultural experience in a short time, with afternoon departures that allow you to take advantage of a free morning.
