Fabulous day out in Lima - We loved our day out and about in Lima. Our guide Aura was full of energy, information and stories. During the day she covered so many topics and responded to all our questions in a very clear and interesting way. We learnt a lot about Peru’s history and the current challenges faced by Peruvians.
Our driver Juan calmly navigated the traffic and to find space to drop off and pick up amidst the mayhem.
Highly recommended as an overview of Lima.

Leisure, knowledge and joy. - The tour with Renzo was wonderful, he was perfect, cult and very kind.
It was a long, several hours tour with several places to be visited and was not exhausting, all timed and accurate.
Tour that will remain for our history and he will ⁇ always be remembered. Exceptional professional.
Thank you, Renzo!

Awesome tour of Lima and Pyramids - A very interesting trip to Pachacamac. Our guide Claudia was very knowledgeable and patiently answered all our questions. She took us on the city tour in the afternoon and to the beautiful fountains in the night. All in all it was good day well spent.
Claudia informed us ahead of time, picked us up on time took us to a good restaurant and guided us there also.

Fullday recommended 100% - It completely exceeded our expectations, it is a quite complete tour.
Our guide Jean Paul along with the driver Esterling were very friendly at all times.
We learned a lot on this tour, learning about pre-Columbian Peruvian history to the present day.
We started at the pyramids of Pachacamac, an ancient site with fascinating history, as we walked we could easily imagine how people lived at that time thanks to the information that Jean Paul gave us.
Then we return to the center of Lima, we stop for lunch (delicious by the way) and we continue getting to know the city, specifically the historic center. The most curious thing is the tour of the San Francisco catacombs, if you suffer from claustrophobia I do not recommend that you do that part of the tour haha.
We finished with the water show, very fun because of the challenges of avoiding getting wet and the closing show was beautiful. (We recommend that if you want to do the maze challenge, bring a towel if possible)
I would like to highlight the impartiality, objectivity and professionalism of Jean Paul, we felt that he told us the history of the country in a reliable manner. We leave with a beautiful memory and with a lot of knowledge of its beautiful culture.

Pamela is the BEST tour guide in Lima! - This was a GREAT tour! Our tour guide and driver were perfectly on time at our door step.
Pamela, our tour guide, was one of the most knowledgeable people we’ve had as a guide. She was kind, easy going, friendly and helpful. She took great care of us!! AND she takes the best pictures! I didn’t know a “photographer” was included in this tour 😉
Lunch was AMAZING!!! And it’s included in the cost of the tour which was great!
The van we had was IMMACULATE!
From beginning to end, we’d recommend this tour to everyone!!
Thanks Pamela for being AMAZING!

Full and varied day - What a full day! Starting with the fascinating ancient site of Pachacamac. Enough has been excavated to get a sense of the site. Pachacamac looks down on the desert and it’s easy to image its former red walls visible to travellers from miles away. I believe it will become a more popular site when more excavation is done. Our guide Jean Paul was extremely knowledgeable about the site. Next we had a fabulous lunch in Lima central and then explored the downtown core and in particular the church de San Francisco and its subterranean crypt. We ended the day with a trip to the park of fountains. This park is a favourite with Peruvians and it was a delight to see all the families enjoying the fountains, spray features, bouncing castles. At dusk the biggest fountain has a special display and music representing the history of Peru. A fabulous way to end the day.

Overview of Lima, Peru, and Pachacamac Pyramids - This was an excellent tour. Our guide, Pamela, was very knowledgeable of her country, city, and the sites that we visited, was very personable. She was the key to making it as successful as it was. The tour was well organized and the transportation arrangements were handled smoothly. The tour description alerts you that this is a long, full day tour, so be aware of your limitations if that can be an issue. That said, I recommend it without reservation.

Our driver, Ernesto, was an excellent driver and we felt safe in his vehicle at all times. Thank you both for this wonderful experience.
