Revash and Leymebamba Private Tour from Chachapoyas

Discover the fascinating archaeological heritage of the ancient Chachapoya civilization on this Revash and Leymebamba Private Tour from Chachapoyas. This full-day excursion combines spectacular mountain scenery, ancient funerary architecture and an exceptional collection of archaeological treasures in the Amazonas region of northern Peru.

Visit the remarkable Revash Mausoleums, a unique archaeological site built into a steep rocky mountainside, and explore the Leymebamba Museum, home to an important collection of pre-Columbian artifacts, mummies and quipus.

Revash Mausoleums: Ancient Chachapoyas Tombs

Your journey begins with a drive from Chachapoyas to the rural community of San Bartolo. From there, enjoy a hike to a viewpoint overlooking the impressive Revash Mausoleums.

These distinctive funerary structures were built by the Chachapoyas people and resemble small houses with sloping roofs. Constructed against the rock face, the mausoleums feature different architectural forms, including small windows and painted geometric designs.

The site offers a fascinating insight into the burial traditions, beliefs and architectural skills of the ancient inhabitants of the Amazonas region. Surrounded by dramatic cliffs and beautiful mountain landscapes, Revash is an outstanding destination for travelers interested in archaeology, history and cultural photography.

Leymebamba Museum: Mummies and Archaeological Treasures

After visiting Revash, continue to the town of Leymebamba, where you can enjoy lunch before exploring the renowned Leymebamba Museum.

The museum preserves an important collection of archaeological objects associated with the Chachapoyas culture and the surrounding region. Its collections include human mummies, textiles, ceramics and quipus—knotted-cord recording devices used by ancient Andean civilizations.

Many of the museum’s most remarkable objects were recovered from the Laguna de los Cóndores archaeological area. The collection provides valuable insights into ancient burial practices, everyday life and the cultural traditions of the people who inhabited the cloud forests of northern Peru.
