5 Gift & Specialty Shops in Urubamba That You Shouldn't Miss
Just its location—in the Sacred Valley of the Incas—makes Urubamba sound like a mystical, magical place. The snow covered Ch'iqun mountain stands proudly in the background of this Peruvian town that serves as a base for people who want to visit the famous ancient Incan ruins of Machu Picchu. Zip lines and horseback rides let you experience this valley in the Andes in wildly different ways.

1. Seminario Ceramics

Since 1979, the CERAMICAS SEMINARIO workshop has been dedicated to the research and application of techniques and designs from the ancient cultures of Peru. Pablo Seminario and Marilu Behar have created a new artistic expression that gives continuity to our cultural heritage. In 1982, they opened their workshop in the Sacred Valley of the Incas where they train local artisans that make each piece entirely by hand. The trajectory and work of Pablo and Marilu is internationally recognized, and their pieces have been acquired by well-known museums. CERAMICAS SEMINARIO invites you to visit its workshop-gallery where you can take a tour to discover the Inca and Pre-Inca techniques that we utilize to create the Pablo Seminario style of ceramics. We are located in the city of Urubamba, Sacred Valley of the Incas, Cusco, Peru. We also offer the possibility to be part of the workshop experience in a pre-booked ceramics class.

Marco was gracious enough to accept our last minute tour request and we are so glad that he did. We had a wonderful day visiting Chinchero, Andean Colors (a company helping women in the area achieve financial independence), Moray and Ollantaytambo. Marco would have taken us to Maras and to lunch as well, but we decided to skip. At Andean Colors we had the opportunity to feed the llamas and alpacas and Maritza gave us an informative talk about the process of cleaning and dying the natural fibers utilized in many of their fabrics. It was great to meet her as well as Melanie and Ilda. Marco is a wonderful tour guide who is informative, professional, and leads you around the destinations with ease. We are so thankful to have had the opportunity to spend the day with wonderful company.
