Sacred Valley Textile Workshop – Dyeing & Weaving in Cusco
Overview
You don't watch. You create.
This isn't a demonstration — it's full immersion. Dye your own yarn using ancestral plant-based techniques. Weave your own textile on a traditional backstrap loom. Leave with something you made, not something you bought.
Learn from the best.
Ruth Pimentel is Peru's only Indigenous master weaver awarded by UNESCO. You'll work alongside her and her family — the real guardians of this living tradition.
The only experience of its kind in Cusco.
No other tour offers this level of hands-on access with an UNESCO-honored weaver. This is as authentic as it gets.
Trusted at the highest level.
We were honored to host Jean-Bernard Münch, President of the Swiss Commission for UNESCO, who experienced this workshop firsthand.
Travel with purpose.
Every visit directly supports local artisans and reinforces the value of their ancestral craft. Your participation helps keep this tradition alive.
