This was one of my favorite experiences during traveling Peru. Paulita was an amazing host! I learned so much about textiles and weaving and this tour gave me such an appreciation for the work and craftsmanship. I also love the mission of Andean Colors and it was great to be able to give back to the local community through this experience
Excellent, excellent, excellent. By far the most authentic experience! This was our favorite tour in Peru 🇵🇪! There is nothing that I would change about this experience. The lunch was DELICIOUS! The views were beautiful. We learned so much!
This was a beautiful experience. I learned a lot about how to create different colors, using the natural environment. The teachers were amazing. Feeding the llamas and alpacas and the healthy lunch was a plus.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are very happy to know that you enjoyed learning about our natural dyeing process and discovering how we create beautiful colors using plants and other elements from nature. It was a pleasure to share our traditions with you, and we’re glad you also enjoyed feeding our llamas and alpacas and having lunch with us. Your kind words mean a lot to our entire Andean Colors family. Thank you for visiting us and for being part of this special experience. We hope to welcome you back to the Sacred Valley someday!
I am traveling with my 21 year old daughter, and this has been by far our favorite experience. Miguel and Ani were wonderful hosts and teachers. From the amazing homemade meal for lunch to feeding the llamas and alpacas (and a surprise baby burro visitor) to learning the entire process of dyeing, spinning, and weaving we were 100% engaged. We were completely immersed in the process rather than just spectators. I can’t recommend this enough and if we were to come back to the Cusco region, we would certainly come back. Can’t recommend this activity enough—it’s great for anyone ages 10 to 100!
Thank you so much for this wonderful review! It truly means a lot to all of us at Andean Colors. We are so happy to know that you and your daughter enjoyed the experience with Miguel and Ani—from sharing our homemade lunch and feeding the llamas and alpacas (including our surprise baby burro visitor!) to learning and participating in the traditional process of dyeing, spinning, and weaving. Our goal is for every guest to be part of the experience, not simply watch it, so hearing that you felt completely immersed makes us very happy. Thank you for visiting us, for appreciating our traditions, and for recommending the experience so warmly. You and your daughter will always be welcome back at Andean Colors. We hope to see you again someday in the Sacred Valley! Warm wishes, Hilda, Marco & the Andean Colors family
I had an amazing experience at the textile workshop with Andean Colors! First, they helped me arrange a private taxi from my hostel to the workshop, and then from the workshop to the airport! As soon as I stepped out of my taxi, Paulita handed me an armful of grass and said we were going to feed the llamas, and I knew it was going to be an incredible day. Then I had lunch with Paulita and Miguel and another guest, and it was delicious and very authentically Peruvian! My workshop was with Paulita, and she did an incredible job involving me in the whole process, from learning how to clean wool, to spinning it into thread, to dying it with different natural materials, and then weaving my own bracelet! And I got to keep the wool we dyed! Paulita also showed me how to tell the difference between real alpaca and acrylic yarn. It was honestly one of the most incredible days I've ever had. Also, learning about Andean Colors' mission to help women provide for themselves and their familiar was really amazing. If you want to buy any authentic alpaca garments or souvenirs on your trip to Peru, I highly recommend waiting until you get here! Their boutique is amazing, and everything there is made by one of the women working at Andean Colors and helps them directly. Thank you so much for offering this incredible experience!

Thank you for supporting our community and for recommending Andean Colors!
The experience is a must! Miguel and Paulina ran a well paced, fun, immersive workshop against an amazing backdrop! The home cooked food was a perfect treat. We saw an eagle soaring through the sky during our meal. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the region. Thank you again to our wonderful hosts and driver Juan Carlos who got us safely there and back to Cusco.

Wow what a beautiful experience! The views alone from the workshop alone were incredible but the experience was phenomenal on top of that. The hospitality first off far exceeded my expectations. They prepared a delicious meal for me when it is notoriously hard to prepare food I can eat and Miguel and Paulita were so warm and welcoming. The experience of learning at the hands of Paulita how to clean, dye and weave the wools was fun, straightforward and engaging. Listening to Paulita's stories and learning the ancestral techniques she was taught by her grandmother was a beautiful way to connect to the culture we were visiting. If you are looking for an intimate, crafty experience in a gloriously peaceful setting, absolutely sign up for this tour. Plus meeting the llamas and alpacas the wool came from was a huge bonus.
Thank you so much for your beautiful and heartfelt review! It truly means the world to us. We are so happy that you enjoyed the peaceful setting, the delicious meal, and the opportunity to learn directly from Paulita. Sharing the ancestral knowledge that has been passed down through generations is at the heart of what we do, and it is wonderful to know that it helped you connect with our culture in such a meaningful way. Your kind words about Miguel, Paulita, and our hospitality are deeply appreciated. Thank you for choosing Andean Colors and for recommending our experience. We hope to welcome you back to the Sacred Valley one day! Warm regards, Marco Zuniga & the Andean Colors Team
This experience was fantastic all around. The scenery itself blew us away. Miguel, Lizbeth and the staff were welcoming and patient. We have so much respect for the traditional textile production methods because of the hands on activities from cleaning, spinning, and dying wool. We also learned a lot about the local geography and history. I would recommend Andean Colors to anyone, even if they are not a fiber enthusiast.

We hope to welcome you back one day for another unforgettable experience in the Sacred Valley! Warm regards, Marco Zuniga & the Andean Colors Team
We had our textiles class and lunch today. Honestly first impressions was the absolutely stunning backdrop, even by Sacred Valley standards it was breathtaking, which is a great bonus because the class is semi outdoors. Feeding the alpacas and llamas was good fun and Thomas the llama is so friendly he will kiss you! Miguel and Polita were very patient and friendly. Miguel spoke good English and was a great teacher and the experience really opened our eyes about the organic and authentic ways of producing alpaca wool products. Lunch was delicious, especially the soup. I just wish there was more of it! Overall would highly recommend!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We are delighted that you enjoyed the beautiful setting, meeting our alpacas and llamas, and learning about traditional Andean textiles. Miguel and Polita will be very happy to hear your kind words. We're especially glad that the experience gave you a deeper appreciation for the authentic process behind alpaca wool production. And we'll take note of your suggestion about the soup! Thank you for visiting Andean Colors. We hope to welcome you back to the Sacred Valley someday
