A private walk through colonial Arequipa with your own guide inside Santa Catalina Monastery.
Explore Arequipa's colonial core at your own pace with a private guide, including entrance to the Santa Catalina Monastery and a private guide inside its cloisters.
Unlike a group tour where you're folded into someone else's schedule, this private service lets you set the start time and pace, with your guide free to answer questions along the way. Entrance to the Santa Catalina Monastery — a walled 16th-century convent city of colored courtyards and narrow colonial streets — is included, along with a private guide inside it, not just a ticket.
A popular starting point — every Voyzo itinerary is fully customizable, so we'll shape the order and stops around your group.
Meet your private guide at a central point in Arequipa's historic center, or arrange hotel pickup in advance.
A private guide walks you through the monastery's painted cloisters, kitchens, and cell complexes, included in the tour.
Arequipa's UNESCO-listed historic core, built from pale volcanic sillar stone.
Back to your hotel, home, or the airport — whenever your day wraps up.

Inside Santa Catalina's walls the mood is less museum than village. The Dominican monastery was consecrated in 1579 and stayed closed to outsiders for roughly four centuries, opening to the public only in 1970. Its blue and terracotta-red cloister walls, narrow lanes with Spanish street names, and communal kitchens and laundry areas let you read the daily routine of the women who lived there.
The monastery is part of the UNESCO-listed Historic Centre of Arequipa, and its construction shows the same material that gives the city its nickname. The pale volcanic sillar was carved, vaulted and then painted, so you see both the raw stone and the colourful finishes that were applied over it.
Beyond the convent, the colonial core around the Plaza de Armas rewards walking slowly. The city was founded in 1540, and its centre mixes European plans with local stone carving, which a private guide can point out detail by detail rather than at group speed.
