Get the Best of Lima with us! If you have only one day in Lima and want to make the most of it, this is your chance to get to see the highlights of the city! We pick you up and head to Huaca Pucllana, a pyramid built in the year 200 b.c. by ancient Peruvians (panoramic), then we go to "The Park of Love" to take excellent photos with the monument "the kiss". After, we leave Miraflores to go to a non-touristy area, this is the fishers Village of Lima, where we visit a fish Market as we learn a bit more of the everyday life of Peruvians. After Chorrillos, we go to The bohemian district of Barranco, to see the street art and the "Bridge of Sighs". For lunch we go to an indigenous market to try our famous and local ceviche!. After lunch, we head to the Historic of Lima, to explore the mysterious catacombs below the San Francisco church and to have a meaningful Walking tour along with our guide. The visit to Main Square and San Martin Plaza are included on the program. Just Great!

He brought Lima and Peru to life through fascinating stories about their history, art, culture, and geography. He also helped us capture lots of beautiful family photographs. The lunch was good, ...read more

Full day tour of Lima

This tour was amazing. Our tour guide, Paulo, was so knowledgeable and enthusiastic! He talked with us not only about the places we visited, but about life in Lima, the culture and history of Peru, and shared his own experiences. It was so easy from pick up to drop off. 10/10 would recommend.
