We had a great...

We had a great experience. I think it is beneficial for everyone, especially those traveling on to Cusco for Machu Picchu, to learn about how the Spanish impacted the Incans and indigenous people here originally. I liked the locations this tour included. Also, I’m glad we did this in the morning being the Plaza was actually open. When we went back to the Plaza after dark that night, it was closed by the police.

This is a must do. We first toured the museum and then had dinner at the museum restaurant which set in a beautiful, lush courtyard full of various bougainvillea plants. Andy our guide was wonderful, his knowledge of and enthusiasm for Peruvian history came through in his discussion of the museum pieces.

Informative and Enjoyable Tour

Victor was an excellent guide. He was very professional and personable and provided a wealth of information in a short time during our tour of the Larco Museum. The Bolivar Hotel was a relaxing setting for our first taste of a Pisco sour. The light show was a beautiful ending to an enjoyable afternoon. The only reason the tour didn’t get a 5 star rating is because I felt it was over priced.
