Some of the figures appear to be dancing; others look like spacemen with large round helmets - obvious potential for the author Eric Von Daniken extraterrestrial musings - To explore this arid area takes around 2 hours but everything depends how active is each participants because to find all figures takes more than a day hiking.

GROUP VS PRIVATE SERVICE

The GROUP SERVICE sometimes is not completely satisfactory because the public bus is to slow, to many stops along the way and not really comfortable but for people wanting to get inmerse with local people and unusual lifestyle of peruvians this is a good option to share the public bus service - This service also include to hire local taxi service to move between the highlights and some days we have to wait and wait till everything is run according the itinerary.
Of course we recommend the PRIVATE SERVICE to enjoy more, to explore around with some short walks between the desert and agriculture fields - This trip include a van for whole trip, more comfort, A/C, and flexible returning time to Arequipa - Our company and tour guides recommend to go with private service to avoid any uncomfortable experiences.
