What you can expect

Visit a small Quechua village in Cusco, Peru, and learn about the knowledge passed down through generations before modern science existed. Feel the warm welcome the Quechua women have prepared for you and immerse yourself in their culture and tradition.

See the locals wearing their traditional clothing and learn about the purpose of each garment, as they are “smart clothes.” Discover the “wrapping technique” used to carry babies and watch the Quechua women demonstrate this process while explaining how they care for their babies in the highlands.

Learn about the special connection the Quechua people have with nature and their understanding of the healing properties of plants. Immerse yourself in the magical science of natural medicine.

Continue your experience by learning about the Quechua people's weaving and textile-making skills. Watch as they demonstrate how they create their own garments using elements provided by nature.

Discover the agricultural products grown in the highlands, their nutritional benefits, and how they are used and preserved. After acquiring all this knowledge, enjoy a delicious variety of local foods prepared with care by the women.

Before leaving, take the opportunity to purchase souvenirs and textiles made by your hosts. As you walk back to your vehicle, listen to the Quechua women sing beautiful songs, making your departure as memorable as your arrival.
