  • Very interesting, they explain the whole process of coloring alpaca wool to you
  • Very interesting guided tour with explanations through the Centro. The friendly staff explained everything without being intrusive. Goods are sold, but no one is asked to do so.
  • If you visit Chinchero, the textiles are a must to see, since the quality stands out in the town. The families of this center are very kind, they have a striking explanation about the spinning process and their products are of excellent quality and authentically handmade.
  • The excellent explanation. Very warm welcome. Step-by-step craftsmanship is appreciated. Admission is not charged. At the end of the tour of the place they offer their works for sale. Beautiful things... The price is a bit expensive, but it is understandable why there are hand-woven fabrics. And others are cheaper factory. Go visit!!!
  • Excellent atention.
