Sacred Valley Textile Workshop with Andean Lunch
From €22 per person
See availability →A Sacred Valley textile workshop that starts with llamas and alpacas, moves on to a Peruvian lunch with Andean views and ends with a bracelet woven by you.
This Sacred Valley textile workshop starts outdoors, among llamas and alpacas, before you are shown to a dining room with panoramic windows. Through the glass you look over the valley floor and the snow-capped peaks of the Andes while lunch is served.
The meal is a traditional Peruvian one built on local ingredients: a soup, a main dish and chicha morada, the purple corn drink many people in the region love.
Once the plates are cleared, the instructor takes over. A live demonstration shows how Peru's renowned textiles are made, and you are encouraged to join in and ask questions. The session ends with a hands-on project: you weave your own bracelet with the traditional backstrap technique.
