Description
Embark on an unforgettable journey through Limas modern districts and Historic Center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site brimming with architectural wonders.
Romantic Start
Begin at the enchanting "Parque del Amor" (Park of Love), inspired by Antoni Gaudi's Parc Guell. Marvel at Victor Delfíns iconic sculpture of a couple locked in an eternal kiss and enjoy breathtaking views of Limas Bay, Barranco, and Chorrillos districts.
Modern Districts
Next, well navigate through the contemporary districts of San Isidro and Miraflores, offering a panoramic view of the ancient Huaca Pucllana Pyramid amid modern architecture. As we traverse Arequipa Avenue, youll glimpse the citys principal landmarks: a replica of the Government Palace, foreign embassies, the historic Park of the Exposition, the Lima Museum of Art, and significant monuments and squares like San Martín Plaza.
Historic Center
Entering the Historic Center via Jirón Conde de Superunda, youll travel a path laid by Francisco Pizarro in 1535. Admire the Colonial House of Osambela, notable for its grand façade and exquisite balconies.
Santo Domingo Convent
Explore the magnificent Basilica and Convent of Santo Domingo, home to the relics of St. Rose of Lima and St. Martín de Porres. Discover the oldest university in the Americas and a library housing 25,000 historic books. The churchs chorus features the oldest ashlar masonry in the country.
Main Plaza and Cathedral
Stroll through Limas Main Plaza, passing the Government and Municipal Palaces, to reach the Lima Cathedral, famous for its religious art and 14 chapels, including the tomb of Spanish conqueror Francisco Pizarro.
Optional Endings
Conclude your tour with a return to your hotel or choose to explore Jirón de la Unión, walking five blocks to Casa Tambo restaurant near San Martín Square. This vibrant walk offers a glimpse into local life with numerous popular stores and restaurants.

Mucho mejor de lo que imaginaba. La atención previa a la reserva fue muy clara con todas nuestras dudas. Volvimos a Guía en vivo al día siguiente por nuestra cuenta. El guía fue un capítulo aparte: sabía muchísimo y contestó todas nuestras preguntas. Ya lo recomendé a dos amigos que viajan el mes que viene.

Bom, com detalhes
Achamos correto e bem organizado. Pagamos bem menos que outras opções e a experiência foi igualmente boa. A passagem por Lima foi rápida e direta. A informação prévia sobre o ponto de encontro poderia ser mais clara.

Passou voando e ficamos com vontade de mais. Fiquei com vontade de mais tempo em Lima. O guia lembrava o nome de todos, um detalhe que a gente valoriza. Se estiverem em Lima, não percam.

La pasamos bien, lo recomiendo con un par de salvedades. La zona de Lima de noche es otra cosa. Los tiempos estaban bien calculados, no se sintió apurado. Le pondría un pero al tiempo libre, se sintió corto en algunas paradas. Vale la pena, sabiendo lo anterior.

Positivo en general
Nos fuimos conformes. No es lo más barato, pero se justifica. Que incluya transporte te ahorra el estrés de llegada. Le pondría un pero al tiempo libre, se sintió corto en algunas paradas. Vale la pena, sabiendo lo anterior.

Repetiría sin dudar
Se pasó volando y nos quedamos con ganas de más. Para lo que incluye, el precio es más que razonable. El guía en vivo vale por sí solo. Sin dudas una de las mejores experiencias del viaje.
