A Must-Visit Archaeological Treasure in Lima - Pachacamac was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Peru. This ancient sanctuary offers much more than ruins — it’s a powerful place filled with history, mystery, and breathtaking ocean views. Walking through the temples and ceremonial pyramids while learning about the civilizations that shaped ancient Peru was an unforgettable experience. The Temple of the Sun, overlooking the Pacific, was absolutely stunning and worth every step. The visit was well organized and informative, making it easy to fully appreciate the cultural importance of the site. If you are looking for something authentic, historical, and different from the typical city tour, Pachacamac is the perfect choice. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Lima!

Interesting tour - The guide for the tour was good, but I was frustrated with the lack of communication before the visit - we were told we would get a private tour with pickup from the cruise port, but the operator changed the pick-up area, and modified it to a group tour without advising. We were only told when I asked to confirm the specifics for the pick up location. Pick-up was late, and the drop off after the tour was later than expected, again, with very little communication. The drop-off time was mainly due to traffic, so be aware of the impact that might have if you have other plans.
