    The bus left an hour later than agreed, which was very annoying. But Cumbemayo is beautiful, it's worth it. The guide Manuel, quite interesting. Recommendation: do not go through the first cave, it is not worth it, not only is it narrow but you cannot see anything other than being between two walls. Totally unnecessary. There is an alternate outdoor path

Explore Cajamarca: Guided Tours, Day Trips & Activities

Located in the northern highlands of Peru, Cajamarca is a city rich in culture, history, and natural beauty. Known for its colonial charm, impressive landscapes, and traditional festivities, it's a perfect place to experience the authentic Peruvian Andes. Whether you’re interested in historical sites, outdoor adventures, or simply soaking up local traditions, you'll find plenty to discover here.

A Glimpse into the Past

This city is famous as the setting of one of the most significant events in South American history: the capture of the Inca emperor Atahualpa by Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro in 1532. Walking through its cobbled streets and visiting landmarks like the Ransom Room, you can feel the echoes of the past still present today.

When to Visit

The best time to visit is during the dry season, from May to September, when the weather is sunny and perfect for exploring. The city’s famous carnival in February is also a major highlight, with vibrant parades and traditional music filling the streets.

How do I get to Cajamarca?

You can reach the city by plane from Lima, with flights taking about 1 hour and 20 minutes. Buses are also available from several Peruvian cities, though these journeys are longer due to the mountainous terrain.
