High above Pisac, at 12,140 ft (3,700 m), lies the remote Andean community of Amaru — a place where tradition is not just preserved but lived daily. Here, you’ll witness the full weaving process, from shearing alpacas and sheep to spinning and dyeing with vibrant pigments drawn from native plants and minerals.

More than a craft, weaving is a language in Amaru — a visual dialogue of identity, memory, and aspiration. As villagers guide you through their symbolic patterns, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of the stories woven into each textile. The experience culminates in a home-cooked lunch, lovingly prepared with seasonal ingredients from the region.

Please allow approximately five hours for the entire experience.
