Our tour guide, Maverick, was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was a great story teller and we learned a lot. He also gave us recommendations that we can use throughout the rest of our stay. We really enjoyed this tour and hope to tour with Maverick again!

Excellent city tour with a friendly guide Joel who spoke great English . Very informative and just the right amount of time at each place. Tried some delicious churros too.

This was a very good tour, but we missed about 45 min of the city tour due to a very rare and unexpected incident with the driver who was picking us up from our hotel. Luckily, Suhey, from Haku Tours, the company providing this tour, came to our rescue. She was absolutely wonderful! She ran to our hotel from the Haku office nearby and got a taxi for us to join the tour in the Lima city old centre. She came with us in the taxi and when we got to the old city, she walked with us to join us to the tour that was already in progress. She also ended up giving us much appreciated compensation for the time we missed. Great company, I would highly recommend it! Thank you Suhey! Suhey was so friendly and apologetic. Then Cesar who gave the city tour was great, very fun and informative. The dinner was fine and then the water park was a very fun experience. I would recommend this excursion!

Great tour. The food was excellent, including the churro near the convent. Both the historical tour and the fountains were interesting and fun.

Unfortunately, we couldn't take the tour due to weather problems during the cruise. However, the constant communication and alternative offers from the tour operator were excellent.
Response from Host, Apr 2026
Thank you so much for your understanding! While we were very sad that the weather kept us from meeting you, we are glad you felt supported by our constant communication and alternative offers. We hope to welcome you to Lima on your next visit!

It’s a fantastic tour! We were picked up on time by a friendly young man and an amazing safe driver. It was my birthday and we went for Chinese food that was delicious, we shared dishes. I went to the bathroom came back and sat down and they brought me a piece of cake and a candle and everyone sang Happy Birthday! It will be a birthday to remember. Thank you for the wonderful day !

The tour was pretty cool with Saul. He went above and beyond the scheduled tour. After a quick dinner, we had some time to kill and he guide us to buy ponchos for our Cusco tours. With enough time, we met up with our second tour guide for the water park. In my opinion, the water park was nothing spectacular - just fountains with lighting.
Alison_T, Mar 2025
This was a great tour of Lima. Mauricio our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the city and it's history. We really enjoyed the walking part of the historical center of Lima and the water show was wonderful. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you only have a limited time in the city like we did.
Response from Host, Apr 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're so glad you enjoyed the tour, and it's great to hear that Mauricio's knowledge of Lima's history enhanced your visit. The historical center and the water show are such highlights, and we're happy you had the opportunity to experience them. Your recommendation means a lot to us—thank you, and we hope to welcome you back for more adventures in Lima!

Cesear was a great guide. He did the tour in both English and Spanish which is very different to do. He was so informative and had a wonderful sense of humor. Definitely a tour to do while in Lima
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted to hear that Cesear provided such an excellent tour. It’s not easy to guide in both English and Spanish, so we truly appreciate his dedication and ability to make the experience enjoyable for all. His informative insights and sense of humor certainly enhance the tour, and we’re glad you had a memorable time in Lima. We hope to welcome you again for another wonderful experience in the future!

Great tour! Lots of walking though. Jose, the guide, was amazing, and his Catacomb knowledge made that part of the tour extra special.
Eber_H, Sep 2024
We love the tour, very useful and in special momment, Santa Rosa event was happening there and many policial are commemorating there Saint .
Ed_Q, May 2024
Joel was a great guide. Very knowledgeable and friendly. We ran into a problem with the the water show being closed for maintenance. He was quick on his feet and was able to offer me a great alternative tour of Barranco. This worked out wonderfully because I wanted to visit the area. Anyway and it did not disappoint.
Barbara_K, Apr 2024
A great way to see Lima. I was picked at my hotel by Tony in a clean newer van. My pick up time was confirmed by Haku Tours, very organized. Amadeo our tour guide from Haku Tours was enthusiastic and very knowledgeable about the areas we visited. Haku Tours have professional yet casual uniforms so easy to spot our guide after free time. Amadeo was always making sure we watched our step or ducked our heads (catacombs) Very caring. Great English.
I recommend this Fantastic Lima City Tour!

The tour guide was excellent. She blended in just like a family member. We ate at a Chinese restaurant. I really enjoyed this tour and the night water fountain show was awesome
Brian_S, Mar 2024
The history and knowledge that guides shared with our group...the pride they had by showing us their little slice of Lima.
Jesse_H, Feb 2024
I had super friendly and knowledgeable guides. We toured some of the city while they gave us some historical information. It was excellent. The guides were just as interested in me and my own background too. I loved it. I would use this company again if/when I come back to Lima.
Alison_M, Jan 2024
Great tour with Junior, our guide, we walked all through Lima with lots of interesting facts along the way. Culminating in the fabulous light show at the end. I would thoroughly recommend this tour, but be prepared for a lot of walking and a long day.
Marjorie_P, Jan 2024
Great tour , Amadeo the tour guide was fantastic. He was so nice, patient and very good in informing about the history of the sites visited. The food at the local restaurant was good but be aware they give you a lot. I highly recommend that tour , we visited a few sites. The water show was amazing, our tour guide junior was good find us a good spot to view the water show. We had a great time.
Rad_N, Jan 2024
Cesar was amazing . We had a wonderful time . The food place he took us was super yummy and he answered all our questions and was patient

Once in a while I meet someone under 30 years of age who restores my faith in the fact that our future will be in good hands. Our tour guide is a wonderful young lady who is a delight and a huge credit to your company.

This was an interesting and fun tour. We toured the Capital District, then had dinner at a local "Chifa" restaurant where we had a fried rice dish, we then walked around for a bit more to the Water Show. We didn't know what to expect, but this was a surprising highlight of our time in Lima. The Water Show is in a park with numerous fountains and the "show" is projected onto a fountain that sprays water into a mist as the screen. The guide made a last minute change on our behalf because we had seen one of the stops listed. We did not expect this, but appreciated the flexibility. Our guide Leonardo was great, I recommend requesting him if possible.
Sara_L, May 2023
It was a great tour ,as we were a very small group. Cesar was great, really friendly and made sure we were having a good time. I was the only one taking the second part of the tour and it was really enjoyable and had the chance to see things that I wouldn't have done by my own . I recommend it!
Michael_B, Apr 2023
This tour was a great introduction to Lima's sights and food. Junior, my tour guide, was amazingly knowledgable and also very entertaining. If you have the chance to go with him, you should!
Jeffrey_W, Mar 2023
Mabel was our tour guide and she was fabulous. We spent 3 weeks touring all over South America and this was our favorite! She accommodated every request and was so informative.
Alain_M, Jan 2023

For my first time to Lima and traveling by myself I was scared that I wouldn't feel comfortable here. I booked the tour on a whim. They came and picked me up at my hotel (which is a huge plus) and I saw some awesome things that day. I felt comfortable the whole time and the guides spoke English well, were super nice, and knew their history. Would highly recommend especially when you are short on time to explore the city!
Response from Host, Oct 2022
Thank you for choosing us Kristie! We are very happy that you enjoyed your experience with us :D
Thank you for sharing your experience :D We always want our clients to feel comfortable because we know that being in a different country can be a stressful situation.
We hope to see you very soon, Kristie! You are part of the Haku Tours family!
