Peruvian Cultural Experiences

May 27, 2016

On the banks of the Vilcanota River in Aguas Calientes, Peru, the Sumaq Machu Picchu Hotel has added two new programs to enhance your family visit.  Time for Andean Tales has native Peruvians explore Andean legends relating stories that have been passed down from generation to generation and honoring the tradition of storytelling.  Mini Chef Lessons can be arranged for children between seven and 12. In the class, your children and grandchildren will learn to cook with healthy, indigenous grains, including kiwicha, maca, purple corn and quinoa. Another cooking class, Pachamanca, will allow them to learn about the culinary traditions of the Incas. As an added touch, the dishes are cooked in an outdoor stone oven and covered with leaves.  The luxury property is an ideal base for exploring Machu Picchu.  Let The Family Traveler create a custom Peru tour for your family with all its amazing highlights, culture and history!
