Dare to live this unforgettable experience!

Peru's southern coast is home to three very different experiences within a few hours of each other—Pacific marine wildlife at the Ballestas Islands, pisco production in Ica's vineyards, and a desert oasis at Huacachina—but they're far enough from Lima that doing them in one day requires a structured route. This tour links all three with private transport for a seamless day of exploration.

What are people saying about Lima

Jon_E, Sep 2026

Great tour!!

We enjoyed our tour to the catacombs and to the Lima city center!!! Alex was a fantastic guide!!! He was very informative as well as patient and fun!!! ¹(the very next day we went back to the catacombs with the 12 tour we had just joined ... that guide "ran" us through the catacombs with very little info. We were so happy that we had gone with Alex the day before!!!

Day Tour From Lima: Paracas, Huacachina, Pisco Vineyard & Sunset

Mara_P, Sep 2026

Key to a successful tour is...

I think in every tour communication, patience, and understanding is key to make the tour itself worthwhile. I was impressed by a lot of things about this tour, but one thing that stood out with me was their communication with the travelers. Day before the tour, I was welcomed with a heartwarming message along with the expectations desired for each traveler. The day of the tour, immediately, I was informed of the itinerary and a fun message of cautionary explanations. Every step of the way travelers were informed of any delays as well as time limits for each stop as its a full day ahead which was expected. Despite the tight schedule, I did not feel rushed. I guess its a matter of following the rules and just minding that there are other people in the tour that you wouldn't want them to wait for you or delay the tour because of you. I highly recommend this tour if you haven't experienced sandboarding and dune buggy. Very worth while especially that the guide and dune buggy drivers were knowledgeable in what they do. I'll give this tour a full mark of stars.

All-Inclusive Highlights of Lima Tour

Christina_D, Aug 2026

Great way to see Lima in a day

This eight hour or so tour gives you a great taste of all that Lima has to offer. Highlights include the chifa lunch cooked by Fabrizio at Haku! offices, the view of the city from Morro Solar and the catacombs. Our tour guide Kevin was very knowledgable, even providing recs in Miraflores and Barranco for after the tour. He bought us churros and had us sample fruit and a smoothie at the market!

Amazing experience

The trip was great experience for us. The organisation was perfect, we had all information in WhatsApp. Our guides were amazing. They were really kind and they told us many interesting information. The visit of Paracas, vine tasting and Huacachina was perfect. We enjoy the second day a lot too. Nasca flight was absolutely amazing. We really recommend this tour. The tour was perfectly organised - we had enough time for lunch, transfer, free time during the day. Seat reservation in bus was also available.

A Journey Through Time: Lima's Historic Center & Catacombs Tour

Jonathan_J, Aug 2026

Great tour and wonderful guide

Highly interesting tour and fascinating visuals lead by our guide, Melanie, who was very knowledgeable and was able to clearly answer all questions. As an English-only speaker, it was important for me to have a guide I could clearly understand and Melanie’s English was so good, I thought she previously lived in the US. She was great and I really appreciate her and the tour! Well done!

Private Full-Day Best of Lima Tour

Miriam_B, Aug 2026

Excellent from start to finish!

This tour was a perfect way to spend a long layover in Lima. We were picked up at the airport by our guide Edgar and driver George. Edgar answered all our many questions, providing insightful and fun facts about the city and the sites. Highlights for us were the Basilica and Convent of San Francisco with its catacombs and the Museo Larco, where we had a delicious lunch. George was both a friendly and great driver, safely navigating the traffic and avoiding jams. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone who has a day to spend in Lima.

Tour to the Archaeological Sanctuary of Pachacamac (small group)

Jane_C, Aug 2026

Captivating and Different

Another set of archeological ruins but such a different take - the mummies found and the stories re the practice of human sacrifice at the Temple of the Sun were captivating. Our guide was incredibly well informed charming, and friendly. I would highly recommend this tour.. plus it’s close enough to Lima to get there and back by just after lunch

Lima to Paracas: Islands, Slave Tunnels & National Park in 1 day!

Ambra_M, Jul 2026

Off the beaten path, strongly recommended

The tour was amazing with Franklyn and Hannah as guides. The boat tour to Ballestas islands allow us to see penguins and sea lions in their natural habitat, it was spectacular! The tour inside the Paracas reserve was a nice surprise, not a famous Peruvian spots but definitely worth it. Finally the visit to Casa Hacienda was helpful to dive deep into slavery history and the African-Peruvian culture thanks to Hannah’s explanation. I strongly recommend this full day tour from Lima, hotel pickup and drop off are included while meals are not.

Lima: Palomino Islands Excursion & Swimming with Sea Lions with Hotel Transfers

Leslie_O, Apr 2026

Great experience!

This was a great excursion! I appreciated the pick up and drop off at my hotel, which made the logistics easy. I had read reviews that you wait around for awhile before heading out. I was dropped off about 45 minutes before we headed for the boat. I brought something to read, so I didn't mind the wait. Once on the boat, the guide gave us great information about the area. They were all about safety and did a wonderful job to make sure we had a great experience! If you're interested in getting an up close experience with wildlife, I'd highly recommend this excursion!

Miraflores, Barranco & San Isidro - Districts Tour (Small Group)

Michele_A, Mar 2026

Miraflores, Barranco and San Isidro with Sandy!

Sandy was waiting for us in the lobby of our hotel room and greeted us warmly. She was very knowledgeable as we stopped at each of the parks and sights on our list. The driver, Gherson, was also excellent. I would recommend this guided tour to anyone who is traveling to Lima for the first time.

Skip the Line: Larco Museum Admission Ticket

J_U, Mar 2026

Important Must See

Give yourself lots of time to read, learn and explore this important museum and don't skip the incredible warehouse, or Erotic Museum. Exceptional opportunity and a must see for anyone who wants to learn about Peru from BC to modern times. There was no lineup and only about 14-20 people total in the whole exhibits on a Thursday afternoon in early March.

City Tour Panoramic Bus Departure From Larcomar

Natasha_M, Jan 2026

Great Way to Visit Lima

We enjoyed our tour to Lima, which included a one and a half hour walking tour of the historical center. Our tour guide was amazing and helped us navigate a very busy historical centre given it was a national holiday. There was so much more to see than I had imagined. Lima’s historic centre is quite grand with most of it accessible on a pedestrian path. It was New Year’s Day, and everyone was out celebrating. I think we would’ve been lost without a guide. The bus to and from the historic centre was comfortable, although some conflict arose about seat switching, which had nothing to do with the tour company, but some very arrogant tourists on board became extremely aggressive and antagonizing to all the Latino tourists on the bus. My children and I were quite shocked and everybody was very uncomfortable with their aggression. This is not reflection on the company. We were on the upper deck and the guides were on the main deck.
