- Comunidad Shipibo Conibo Cantagallo - The journey begins with a pickup from your hotel or accommodation in Lima. During the 40-minute drive to the Shipibo-Konibo community, a cultural heritage interpreter will provide insights into Peru’s Amazonian ethnic groups, Indigenous languages, and the modern challenges they face. These narratives will enrich your understanding of the cultural significance of the experience ahead.
Upon arrival, enjoy a brief walk through the community, observing murals, traditional patterns, and daily life. You will then be warmly welcomed into the home of a Shipibo-Konibo artisan, where you will hear her personal story—a narrative of migration, cultural resilience, and feminine strength.
You will also learn a few words in the Shipibo language and uncover the meaning behind their sacred geometric designs. Under the guidance of an Indigenous master artisan, you will create your own textile artwork using traditional tools and techniques passed down through generations.
After completing your piece, there will be an opportunity to purchase authentic crafts directly from the artisan, supporting her work and community. Finally, you will be driven back to your hotel in Lima, carrying with you not only the textile you created but also a meaningful connection to one of Peru’s most vibrant living cultures.
This women-led, ethical, and transformative experience promotes responsible tourism, cultural preservation, and social impact—a genuine encounter with the living heritage of the Amazon in the heart of Lima.
