Description
Begin the tour in Barranco, Lima’s most bohemian suburb. We will see Barranco’s Central Park, its Municipal Library, the traditional Bridge of Sighs, the colonial homes and its famous boulevard. Next, we will drive down the South Pacific Coast Highway to Pachacamac, the most important ceremonial center in the Peruvian coast during pre-Inca and Inca times. Throughout the centuries Pachacamac was occupied by many different Andean civilizations such as the Lima’s, the Wari’s, the Ichma’s and finally by the Inca Empire. However, the Pachacamac Oracle always remained a religious center. We will see several pyramidal temples and enclosures from different time periods: the Adobitos & Old Temple (I C. A.D.), the painted Temple (VIII C. A.D.), a pyramid with a ramp (XIII C. A.D) & the Temple of the Sun (XV C. A.D.). Besides the ruins we will also visit an on-site museum displaying pottery, textiles, shell and stone ornaments, as well as the wooden Pachacamac idol found during excavations (1938)

Super recomendo
Excelente do início ao fim. A explicação em Incas nos deixou pensando. Usamos ingresso ao complexo arqueológico de Pachacamac e ao museu do sítio o tempo todo e funcionou perfeitamente. Que bom seria se todos os tours fossem assim.

Muito bem organizado
Uma experiência completa. De todo o roteiro, Aprenda é o que mais lembro. Incas foi uma surpresa, não estava nos nossos planos. Ideal para ter uma visão geral e depois voltar ao que gostou mais.

Amazing day
Just brilliant. Not the cheapest, but justified. We had no idea about the history of Temple. Excellent guide with a deep knowledge of the local history. If we come back to Lima, we will do it again.
