Afternoon: Chan Chan Complex from Trujillo

Pick up from accommodation in Trujillo around 2pm . Then we will start our visit of the famous Huaca Arco Iris (Huaca Dragón) and the Huaca Esmeralda. Afterwards, we get an insight to the site of Chan Chan in the official museum and also visit the Nickán Palace. We visit inner patios, residences, administrative buildings, temples, platforms and storehouses, and a huge reservoir where "sunken gardens" may have produced specialized crops for the Chimu nobility. We continue on to the nearby beach resort of Huanchaco, where we have a chance to try the superb seafood of Trujillo at a restaurant overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Here fishermen still paddle out to sea, kneeling on caballitos de totora -- little one-man reed rafts which have been used for millennia to collect the abundant bounty of the Pacific ocean. Return to the city of Trujillo at 18:00h. Drop off at Trujillo main square.
