Villa Rica Tour
Your adventure begins with a pickup from your hotel in San Ramón at 8:30 am, as we head toward Villa Rica, renowned as the coffee hub of Pasco. It's noteworthy that its specialty green coffee beans have recognition as a protected designation of origin.
After a scenic drive of a little over an hour, we will cross the Paucatambo bridge, the border that separates the regions of Junín and Pasco. Prior to reaching Villa Rica, we will stop by the Lion waterfall, accessible after a brief ten-minute hike. Here, feel free to enjoy a refreshing swim!
Upon entering the historic center of Villa Rica, we will stroll around the main square, where the coffee pot monument stands as an excellent backdrop for photos!
Next, we will visit a local café, where you can savor a hot cup of Villa Rica coffee. You will then have time for lunch to indulge in the region's delightful cuisine. Refreshed and energized, we will continue our journey in the afternoon to the El Oconal lagoon.
At the lagoon, we’ll take in the scenic beauty and the rich biodiversity of this water reserve. To conclude the experience, enjoy a soothing fish pedicure, or ichthyotherapy, using Garra rufa fish to help alleviate various skin conditions. A perfect way to wrap up your day!
