    Special day in Vale de Colca

    Our experience was sensational. The team in Arequipa was perfect and very punctual, from the first contact until the moment of the tour. Our guide was Rosa and we loved spending the day with her. He knows a lot about the history of the region, gave many details and is a sympathy. We had fun throughout the journey between one visit and another. Highlight also for breakfast, which was very tasty. Don’t expect a banquet: it was bread, coffee, measured eggs tea and something prepared with quinoa that was a delight. Simple but delicious, fresh. In addition, just enjoy the joy and hospitality of the Peruvian people!

    Response from the operator: es bueno saber que disfrutaron mucho , también la compañía de la Guía que les haya gustado , estamos para que su visita sea del agrado de cada uno de uds.Muchos saludos

    johnsonc525 · June 2026

    No one can take away the views of nature.

    For me, it was pleasant from the beginning, experienced guide Maria and driver Oscar, then the sunrise, the coordination with breakfast, there was also a tourist celebrating a birthday and it was not overlooked, I should mention that the tourist spots fit according to the schedule for visiting and having wonderful views, the whole group tried to collaborate with the attitude and it is understandable when they do not know each other, but the guide knew how to resolve it, pleasant and unique moments, everything was very beautiful including the gastronomy, grateful for tourism and its teachings, God bless you all.

    Response from the operator: Hola, saludos muchas gracias por sus palabras esperando que le vaya bien en todos sus proyectos . Thanks

    Colca Full Day: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arequipa.

    How much does Colca Full Day cost?

    +

    Prices start at $39 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Arequipa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Colca Full Day take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Arequipa is not rushed.

    Is Colca Full Day worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 17 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Arequipa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Colca Full Day?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Colca Full Day suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Colca Full Day?

    +

    Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Arequipa can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Arequipa and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Colca Full Day start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Arequipa within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Arequipa?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Arequipa experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Arequipa Rafting on the Chili river free pick-up,snack., 2 Day 1 Night Trek Colca Canyon, Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Arequipa?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Arequipa?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Colca Full Day?

    +

    Included: In-vehicle air conditioning; and Breakfast. Not included: Lunch; All Fees and Taxes; and tickets entrance colca. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Colca Full Day include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 124 listed pickup locations in and around Arequipa. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Colca Full Day offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Colca Full Day?

    +
