Arequipa was the place that inspired us to think about moving to South America - it’s so beautiful there we just wanted to stay! In the end Cuenca Ecuador won out as place to call home but Arequipa will always be a favorite.
Thanks for watching! Would you visit Arequipa during a trip to Peru? 😀 If you liked this adventure, be sure to check out our homestay on Lake Titicaca: ruclips.net/video/8DOcVHjVfGU/видео.html&ab_channel=TheBomsAway
The visit to Arequipa made an interesting video. I liked that you took us first to where they mined the volcanic stone and then finished the video at the city of Arequipa. The art work on the Arequipa buildings that were made out of volcanic stone was exquisite!
Probably it is too late. But Arequipa has its own regional tasty food -> Picanterias. 2 dishes are strongly recommended 1º Rocoto Relleno 2º Chupe de Camarones arequipeño ( made using river shrimp as ingredients )
Thank you for sharing these incredible sites. The stone carvings are original and artistic. Such natural amazing statures ! I was really worried about you both getting lost in these canyons. Would you be able to notify the police to locate you ? What a relief that you made it back safely to town again. May God grant you Safe and Sound all your life !
Hey! We did not register our drone. Many people bring their drones to Peru and I don’t think it’s ever an issue. As long as you respect people’s space, and the rules of any tourist attraction, you shouldn’t have any problems bringing or flying a drone. Just be prepared for high altitude flying. Our Mavic mini (1st gen) could not handle flying over 3500m elevation. So pretty much anywhere near Cusco. Hope this helps!
Okay, I loved seeing all the sculptures in white made of 'volcanic stone' but enchant the uneducated, from which volcano?? The 'ancient ruins of Petra in Jordan"... what? why? this is Peru. Lost here. Wonderful artists!
Arequipa is surrounded by 3 volcanoes (Misti, Chachani, Pichu Pichu). You can actually see them in some of the drone shots in the video. And there’s no real reason for the sculptures and Petra… they just wanted to design some artistic pieces out of stone for tourists to see to represent the skill and artwork of stone workers from Arequipa. It’s like an art gallery.

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it! We had such a fun time exploring and documenting this city!
Arequipa looks so Incredible guys 😍😍
Such a beautiful town!!
Thanks for another great show
Glad you enjoyed it! :)
I'm here just to see how to pronounce Sillar and Arequipa, and thank you so much
Arequipa is actually a modern day Petra since it is a stone city. Peru has actually 2 rock cities, Arequipa and Cusco
Nice city of Arequipa🙏
It’s beautiful!

Yes food in Arequipa is so unique and delicious! Thanks for the recommendations :)
How many days did Peru give you as tourist visa ? AFAIK they can stamped a 180 days visa ?
We never planned to stay more than 90 days so we didn’t need to ask for longer than that!

I love the video!!! Just a quick question, did you guys have to register your drone upon arrival?

when guys come back to Ecuador? :)
We wish we were returning soon but it won’t be for a while! Lots of other countries to explore first :)
Funny . I did get it. How much did you pay for getting into the Sillar Area ?
5 soles each. All the prices are in the video :)
Way to encourage the Canadian stereotype of igloos😆
Hahaha we love to encourage ridiculous stereotypes of Canadians. It’s hilarious when we meet people who know nothing about Canada 😉

Can you guy try to visit La Rinconada as well?, highest town in the world!
Oh so cool! Unfortunately we’ve already left that area of Peru. Maybe on a future trip :)
