Community Workshop & Cooking Class

Begin your day at the Inti Sisa Educational Center in Guamote, where you can visit the kindergarten and see classes in sewing, computers, and English. Then, take a scenic drive through the mountains, stopping at local schools and meeting a traditional weaver in Changchang to learn about their craft. Continue to Chacaza, where you'll experience daily life with an Indigenous family before returning to Guamote. Community tourism not only provides meaningful experiences but also supports biodiversity conservation, cultural preservation, and local economies. End the day with a hands-on empanada-making workshop, followed by a tasting session of your freshly made treats.
