Chinchero alpaca farm and textile tour

My husband and I had an amazing experience with Andean Colors. Upon entering we were greeted with the friendliest llama, Thomas. They gave us some grass to feed both the llamas and alpacas and they loved it. The landscapes in the back were so beautiful. And then Marco brought us over to the back to teach us the history behind the company, processing alpaca wool, dying the wool and how they are able to achieve all of the colors, and how to tell if an item is good quality alpaca or cheap. Left with some great souvenirs!

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your lovely review! We are delighted to hear that you and your husband enjoyed your time with us — and of course that you had the chance to meet our friendly llama, Thomas 🦙. Feeding the alpacas and llamas is always such a special way to start the experience, and we are happy you enjoyed the beautiful landscapes as well. It also means a lot to us that you valued learning about the history of our project, the alpaca wool process, natural dyeing, and how to recognize the quality of alpaca textiles. Knowing you left with souvenirs full of meaning makes us very happy. We truly appreciate your visit and hope to welcome you back one day to continue sharing more colors, traditions, and smiles from the Andes. Warm regards, Marco Zuniga & the Andean Colors Family #TejiendoHistorias

Llama Hiking & History Experience (Cusco Region): ANDEAN COLORS: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Llama Hiking & History Experience (Cusco Region): ANDEAN COLORS cost?

+

Prices start at $170 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cusco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Llama Hiking & History Experience (Cusco Region): ANDEAN COLORS take?

+

Plan for about 7 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 Cusco is not rushed.

Is Llama Hiking & History Experience (Cusco Region): ANDEAN COLORS worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Llama Hiking & History Experience (Cusco Region): ANDEAN COLORS?

+

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 Llama Hiking & History Experience (Cusco Region): ANDEAN COLORS suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 14. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 7-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Llama Hiking & History Experience (Cusco Region): ANDEAN COLORS?

+

Around 0 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 Cusco 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 Cusco and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Llama Hiking & History Experience (Cusco Region): ANDEAN COLORS 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 Cusco 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 Cusco?

+

On Outty we rank every Cusco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sacred Valley Full Day Tour, Full-Day Humantay Lake Trek (Meals Included), Cusco: Rainbow Mountain & Red Valley Premium Day Trip with Meals. 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 Cusco?

+

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 Cusco?

+

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.
