Journey into the highlands on an ambitious day trip from Arequipa to the Colca Canyon, one of the deepest in the world. Guided excursions here include stops at the Cruz del Condor viewpoint, where you can see giant Andean condors soar above the 9,850-foot-deep (3,000-meter-deep) chasm. Meanwhile, a guide handles the mountain navigation, so you can focus on exploring the traditional villages of Maca and Yanque—most itineraries even include a soak in La Calera’s natural thermal baths. Given the complex logistics, an organized excursion is the most practical way to manage the pre-dawn departure and the high-altitude travel required to see this natural wonder in just a single day.
