La Huaca de la Luna and Chan Chan with Trujillo del Peru
We took a private tour of La Huaca de la Luna, the city of Trujillo, Chan Chan and Huanchaco with "Trujillo del Peru" during our visit to Trujillo in March 2014. Ever - our guide was extremely knowledgeable and the company is very well organized. Ever was able to cover the history of the Incas and the pre Incan civilizations and show us how the excavations at La Luna and Chan Chan are exposing evidence of this history. Trujillo de Peru also produce a very interesting booklet covering this history which they provide to people on their toors. Highly recommended.

Better than Chan Chan if you ask me
I love the Huacas. I go to Trujillo pretty often, and almost always make a trip back here. They are probably my favourite archaeological site in the world (and I'm an archaeologist). Every time I've been, there is something new to see. The guides are knowledgeable (I do tend to grill them a bit, just to make sure), their English is good. It can get a bit breezy up there, so take a coat in the autumn or winter. Go to Chan Chan if you must, but do not miss a trip to the Huacas. Even better is if you take a trip to the University Museum in town in the morning, then follow up with a trip to the Huacas in the afternoon (then you can still make it to Huanchaco for sunset...). Where Chan Chan is brown and reconstructed, the Huacas are colourful, changing and vibrant. Did I mention that I love the Huacas?
