Itinerary
Day 1 La Paz, Bolivia
The tour begins with an orientation with Dehyana, as well as a group sharing session, city tour and welcome dinner. Today is mainly a day of rest after hours of international travel.
Day 2 Tihuanaco to Puno, Peru
We will begin the day with devotion, followed by a visit to Tihuanaco, the famous 'Gateway of the children of the sun'. Here we will have the opportunity to experience the profound energies of this ancient site with Dehyana, and learn of the rich history with a local expert guide.
Day 3: Titicaca Lake - Los Uros & Amamtani (By speed Boat)
Early morning transfer to Puno's docks to board our speedboat for the fascinating floating islands of Los Uros for a guided visit. The Uros, pre-Incan people who live on the forty-two self-fashioned floating islands of Lake Titicaca, use bundles of dried totora reeds to not only construct their boats, but also to make the islands they inhabit. We will then enjoy a scenic tour of the the surrounding floating islands by way of these local reed boats - gorgeous photo ops await you! Next, we will be greeted by the locals on the sacred island of Amantani and led to their homes for lunch. After lunch, we will prepare for our pilgrimage to the 'Sacred Mount of Pacha Tata' to enjoy a meditation/ceremony and offering in respect to Lake Titicaca. We will spend the night in local Andean houses, a unique and exciting experience!
Day 4 Amantani - Puno - Hayu Marka
After an early breakfast, we will transfer to Puno by speed boat and check into the hotel. After lunch, we head to one of the most mysterious sites in Peru; Hayu Marca or Ana-mumuro, revered by the locals as the 'City of the Gods'. Although no actual city has ever been discovered, it earned it's name due to the the mysterious rock formations resembling various animals, beings and buildings. The main attraction, however is the 'Peurta de Hayu Marca' or Door/Gateway of the Gods. This mysterious door measuring exactly seven square meters with a smaller alcove in the centre measuring in at just under two meters in height, is carved out of a natural rock face and to this day remains a mystery. Some believe it to be a portal or stargate to other dimensions, the theory based on native legends of great heroes of the past joining their Gods via this doorway with the use of a 'solar disc' to unlock it. Here we will spend time experiencing the powerful energies of this vortex in meditation, followed by a guided tour. Enjoy a free evening in Puno.
Day 5 Puno-Cusco
Today we will take our time heading back to Cusco by private coach, stopping at various points of interest along to way to stretch our legs! We will arrive in Cusco late afternoon, check into our hotel and then enjoy a free evening in this beautiful city.

Coricancha was the most important temple in the Incan Empire, dedicated primarily to Inti, the Sun God. It was one of the most revered temples of the capital city of Cusco. From here we will transfer to Sacsayhuaman, a Megalithic temple, the former capital of the Incan empire, sitting at an altitude of 3701 metres, and finally Tambomachay, temple of Water. We will enjoy another free evening to explore all that Cusco has to offer!

This market offers a wide variety of treasures; from indigenous crafts to musical instruments, crystals, jewelry and Andean woven goods.
