I thoroughly enjoyed this highlights of Lima tour. I was hesitant to book because of the high price, but it is really two half day tours combined into one, which makes the price much more reasonable. I enjoyed that we got to see not just the most touristy places but also different neighborhoods where the locals like to hang out. I feel like we went a little bit beyond just the surface and got a very good overview of the many places and faces of Lima.
JJ our guide was great. I had a good time. Nothing you can do about the traffic in Lima. If you wanna get downtown and see the sites we saw and had a great time with recommended.
Great day spent with Giovanna who showed us so many interesting places and imparted so much of her knowledge. Very enjoyable lunch prepared by Haku’s in-house chef. Giovanna was enthusiastic and accommodated our request to see the Paddington Bear statue!
It was a great tour with a wonderful guide and excellent communication. I am glad I picked this tour company because I had several choices in Lima.
The knowledge and professionalism is amazing.
This is such an incredible group of people. They work really hard to make the experience great.
Pickup at our hotel was convenient especially since we traveled from Miraflores to the historic section, allowing us to see more of Lima. Our tour guide Yvonne was knowledgeable about current and historical facts of Lima. Additionally, since we decided to change our full day tour to a half day, she was very flexible. (It will be interesting to see if we receive any kind of credit.)
Good overview of Lima neighborhoods and lots of time walking around and seeing things vs driving. Excellent guide (JJ).
Giovanna was a wonderful tour guide! We did the full-day Lima tour, and she did an amazing job bringing the city to life while explaining the highlights and unique character of each neighborhood. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire experience so enjoyable. She even went the extra mile to get us authentic Peruvian churros and ice cream, which was such a delicious bonus! Highly recommend Giovanna for anyone looking to explore Lima.
My family thoroughly enjoyed learning about culture, history, art, architecture, and different sites around Lima. Aaron was extremely knowledgeable and engaging! We had a fantastic meal prepared for us at Haku headquarters in Miraflores and some yummy snacks along the way. Everything was included in this tour, which we appreciated.
The morning tour guide kept on using the expression “my friends “which was so annoying. In the afternoon the tour was disorganized . The transportation never showed up. We had to take a taxi and only saw one park . We were supposed to see many sites and saw virtually nothing. Completely unprofessional, had to sit in dirty taxis , could not find us rides, didn’t know what to do next . The van’s air conditioning kept on dripping water on my wife .
It was a great experience and we learned a lot from our guide, Giovanna. We saw so much, were treated to churros, Lunch and ice cream. We were even dropped off at our hotel for a fair price.
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!
Fantastic tour by a fantastic guide, Cesar. Full day! Worth the money! The lunch was also a great added touch by Chef Ruth and her staff.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Epic and Unforgettable Lima Experience!
The All Inclusive Highlights of Lima Tour was absolutely exceptional and one of the best ways to truly experience Peru’s capital. This was far more than sightseeing. It was an educational, cultural, and unforgettable journey through the many different sides of Lima.
We explored the modern beauty of Miraflores, the colourful and artistic streets of Barranco, the coastal character of Chorrillos, and the remarkable history and colonial architecture of Lima’s Historic Centre. The tour gave us a deeper understanding of the city, its people, its traditions, and the contrast between modern development and the hardworking communities that help keep Lima moving.
A very special thank you to our exceptional guides, Aaron, Raul, and Maverick. Their knowledge, professionalism, humour, patience, and passion for Peru made the experience truly outstanding. They kept the tour engaging, answered our many questions, and shared the history and culture in a way that was informative, honest, and easy to understand.
Everything was well organised, from transportation and activities to the delicious food and thoughtful explanations at each stop. We finished the tour with beautiful memories and a much greater appreciation for Lima.
This tour was educational, exciting, authentic, and absolutely epic. It is a must do experience for anyone visiting Lima.
Highly recommended. Five stars all the way! 🇵🇪⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It was a complete tour of the city including sites of the beaten track. Aaron was our guide and he was very friendly and professional. Although the shop we visited was rather expensive.
Busy tour exploring many different sectors (history, architecture, aer, music and food) of Lima by car and walking. Tour was led by Aaron, a Lima born young man who was professional and knowledgable. The tour is affordable, doable and manageable for a short visit.
I loved my full day city tour of Lima! I was traveling solo and my guide, Gio, made me feel so comfortable. Her knowledge was extensive. I enjoyed all of it, but highlights were Kennedy Park & Parque del Amor (Love Park) in Miraflores, and Barranco. Barranco was quite special with all its murals. Highly recommend this tour!
What a great tour if you are interested in checking out many parts of the city!
Pickup at the hotel was simple and on time. The drivers we had were very competent and got us to each area. The food we had was wonderful.
Get ready for a full day. We finished at around the 9 hour mark. This included a number of pickups and dropoffs at different things to see.
Leonardo was a great guide. Passionate. Made sure the group understood. Was a great host of 'his country,' Peru.
If you have a day and want to see different areas of town, take the tour!
This was the perfect tour. Nothing felt rushed or took too long. It was a great introduction to the city.
A great way to see Lima within a short period without missing out much. My tour guide was Giovanna, she was very informative and engaging.
Fabulous day tour of the city with Cezar who was Amazing! He was enthusiastic and kept the day moving in a positive and educational way. Enjoyed the hotel pick up and all the wonderful places we visited around the city. Also, the included lunch was very good!
Great tour guide, Aaron. He showed us hidden gems and sides of Lima, from the local fish market, marketplace to busy hubs of the city.
This was a fun and inclusive tour of Lima. Lots to see and learned a lot about the city history. Caesar made it fun and interesting. Joel added lots of historical information about the city sites. And Julio was a fantastic driver navigating the streets of Lima. Highly recommend this tour!
The tour was awesome. all activities on time. the lunch with a private chef the whole company was really attentive the drivers and the office team. Cesar was an oustanding tour guide. funny. provided a lot of valuable information and made the whole day a perfect vacation tour. highly recomended Haku tours
Picked up from hotel and greeted by Amadeo (guide) and Andy (driver). Amadeo was very knowledgeable and took awesome pictures. Great tour, would never have found the places myself. Also had a great lunch at a traditional Peruvian restaurant. 10/10 experience
Very comprehensive and covered pretty much everything we needed to see in Lima in one day. Tour guide Cezar was the friendliest and most knowledgeable. His sense of humor made the tour even more fun. Drivers sirillo and Sergio were experts in navigating through traffic and made us all feel very safe. I highly recommend this tour to friends and family.
Our guide was very knowledgable about the sites we visited and happily answered all our questions. It felt like a very well rounded tour of Lima’s iconic locations and we were beyond satisfied with the experience given to us. Thank you Aarun!!
