Our tour guide was Maritza who clearly loves her job and welcomed my endless questions and answered them all. I don’t understand people who say this is a disappointment. It’s a really fantastic place to be. I only wish the tour went a little more slowly. We first visited the Huaca del Iris and then one of the big palaces. Pictures of the place do not do it justice. If you love seeing how ancient societies lived you should go. The sun is intense so sunblock up and wear a hat, but I didn’t find the heat a problem.
