Tiwanaku & Puma Punku Day Tour
Description
Travel back in time—farther than the Incas, deeper than myth. This full-day tour takes you to the spiritual and architectural heart of the ancient Tiwanaku civilization, a pre-Columbian society that predates Machu Picchu by over a thousand years. Wander through vast stone plazas, monolithic gateways, and the enigmatic ruins of Puma Punku, where impossibly precise stonework continues to puzzle modern engineers. With your expert local guide, you’ll uncover the stories, symbols, and secrets etched into Bolivia’s sacred altiplano.
Unique Experiences:
Stand face-to-face with the Gate of the Sun, one of the most iconic and mysterious monuments of pre-Columbian South America.
Explore Puma Punku, a site some call evidence of “lost technology,” with its precisely cut stone blocks and baffling alignments.
Connect with ancient Andean spirituality, learning about the Tiwanaku worldview, cosmology, and traditions still alive in local Aymara communities.
