At ANDEAN COLORS you will take part in every stage of creating Peru’s world‑famous textiles. You will examine the texture of the wool, clean the fibres and dye them using natural pigments from plants, insects and minerals. Along the way, talented craftsmen will teach you a knitting technique so you can make your own vibrantly coloured bracelet. By handling the materials and methods yourself, you will get a close look at traditional textile-making and find excellent photo opportunities.
The experience will finish with a traditional Andean lunch and a friendly encounter with alpacas and llamas. You will also be able to browse a spacious boutique offering high‑quality textiles and souvenirs. The combination of hands-on craft, local food and animal encounters will give you a practical and memorable way to immerse yourself in Peruvian culture at ANDEAN COLORS.
