    Great route, guide, and...

    Great route, guide, and enough free time for shopping and photos! Started in Miraflores, drove by San Isidro, and visited the Catacombs (you have to pay for your own ticket to enter San Francisco Monastery).

    Thank you very much for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour, the guide, and that you had enough time to take photos. We also appreciate your comment about the entrance to the Monastery of San Francisco, as it will be helpful to future visitors. We hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again on your next visit.

    Be careful with this tour. Checked so that you understand exactly what’s included and how long the total last.

    I was disappointed with this tour. First, it was listed to be five hours. Instead, it was only 3 1/2 hours. Second, given there was time the tour should’ve included for us to be able to go in and see all of the archaeological site Hauca Pucllana. Not just take a photo opportunity outside. Third, I understood that the price I was charged would not include the admission fee for the monastery. But given it was a good hour of our tour, and was very interesting, it should’ve been included in the price I charged to my credit card.. Instead, Vanessa didn’t realize I hadn’t paid until we were well into that part of our tour. I wanted to pay by credit card and she didn’t have a means to accept it. And I did not have any Peruvian money. So I had to pay $10 US. Which is more than the cost for admission. And Vanessa had no way to give me back any change.That is ridiculous and bad management. Again, very disappointing. I overpaid.

    Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry that the experience didn’t meet your expectations. We’d like to clarify that the tour itinerary specifies only a scenic visit to Huaca Pucllana; therefore, entry to the archaeological site is not included, but rather an exterior stop for viewing and taking photos. Regarding the monastery, admission is not included in the tour price, as previously specified. However, we apologize for the inconvenience with the payment method and the lack of change during the visit. We will take your feedback into account to improve coordination in this area. We appreciate your comments, as they help us continue to improve our service.

    A pleasant afternoon of Lima sites and sounds.

    Enjoyable high lites of Lima. Our guide Yajaira was excellent. We signed up for an English speaking tour and ended up with a shared Spanish - English tour. It was a little frustrating when the Spanish speaking guests would be loudly talking when Yajaira was telling us in English what we were seeing. It made it very difficult to hear.

    Response from Host, Jul 2026

    Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour and that Yajaira provided excellent service. We apologize for the inconveniences you experienced during the shared tour and appreciate your feedback, as it will help us continue to improve the experience for all our visitors. We look forward to welcoming you back soon!

    Recommend it for sure!

    We were picked up on time and the tour finished on time. We saw places that we may not have, if we were exploring on our own. The insights given by or guide, William, as well as his recommendations were fantastic. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

    Response from Host, Mar 2026
