Huaraz Tour ( 3 days and 2
nights )
Price per person US$592 based on double occupancy at tourist class hotels
The small city of Huaraz is the hub for all hiking
activity, and frequent rural buses transport enthusiasts to a variety of trailheads.
A
Casa de Guias, located just off the main street, will provide the latest information
about routes and mountain conditions, and can provide trekkers with a list of porters
and burro drivers, who can help carry gear on the long trek ahead. Along the main
street of Luzuriaga, colorful billboard signs lend distinction to an otherwise dull facade
of street-front shops. Most of these promote tourism in some form, so finding a
comfortable day tour, renting hiking gear, or buying souvenirs is as easy as locating the
proper agency by identifying its sign out front. A number of good restaurants (whose
status is often elevated to excellent after a long hike) serve up a variety of food and a
couple of lively peñas, featuring groups playing the traditional music of the
Andes, provide a place to loosen up before or after a strenuous four days' trekking.
