Woven Paths: a Peruvian weaving tour is for people who have a strong interest in the textile traditions of Peru, and want to spend days in remote communities learning more about the fascinating Quechua dyeing and weaving traditions. Join us for this once in a lifetime journey to the high Andes, where we will visit extremely remote communities and stay in the home of a Master Weaver. We will be privileged to learn not only about native dye plants and weaving techniques but about a way of life thousands of years old. This is a journey for people who are experienced travellers or willing to travel long days and stay in rustic homestays in high altitude communities. Departs June 2017.
