An unforgettable day with Alex in Lima

Christal_G, Feb 2026

We had such an amazing experience on our Pachacamac and Lima tour with Alex. From the very beginning, he was warm, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He explained the history in a way that was easy to understand and made everything come alive. What stood out most was how attentive and thoughtful he was throughout the entire day. He made sure we were comfortable, answered all our questions, and kept the energy positive and fun. You can truly tell he loves what he does. This wasn’t just a tour, it felt like a full cultural experience. I highly recommend Alex to anyone visiting Lima. Thank you for making our day so special!

Fabulous day out in Lima

Julie_A, Jul 2024

We loved our day out and about in Lima. Our guide Aura was full of energy, information and stories. During the day she covered so many topics and responded to all our questions in a very clear and interesting way. We learnt a lot about Peru’s history and the current challenges faced by Peruvians. Our driver Juan calmly navigated the traffic and to find space to drop off and pick up amidst the mayhem. Highly recommended as an overview of Lima.

Awesome tour of Lima and Pyramids

pravasi, Jun 2024

A very interesting trip to Pachacamac. Our guide Claudia was very knowledgeable and patiently answered all our questions. She took us on the city tour in the afternoon and to the beautiful fountains in the night. All in all it was good day well spent. Claudia informed us ahead of time, picked us up on time took us to a good restaurant and guided us there also.

Book this tour!

Book this tour. I was hesitant to book this tour as it had 1 review on Viator and was the same review on TripAdvisor. After calling Viator customer support I found out the review is the same as it’s the same company. So we went with the tour hoping to the 1 review was not a bad omen. It was not a bad omen. This tour was GREAT. We had a day lay over on Lima and wanted to explore the city but also do something unique. We started our tour at 11am. Thought the tour says a max of 15 people it was just myself and my partner. We were picked up at the restaurant we went to for breakfast. So, already, the tour company accommodated a pick up location that wasn’t “typical”. We had a driver and a guide in a clean SUV and went to the Pyramids. Lots of energy and a lot of knowledge from our tour guide MP. Sterling, our driver, was extremely friendly and drove safely and was prompt with every pick up. You could tell the full team was about comfort, customer experience, and providing a robust trip. The pyramids were great. Not rushed. The crypts were neat and the architecture was beautiful. Our diet (vegan) was accommodated for lunch which was fantastic and convenient. We had a tour guide switch for the city which was Enrique. Just as energetic and knowledgeable. We were given a walk at our own pace from cathedral to cathedral and then were picked up for the Water Show at the Fountain Park. I guess usually the park is much more packed on a non holiday so there’s much more waiting in line. However, we had a lot of time in the park before the water show - this was the only thing I would have changed to lessen the waiting (thought I don’t thin this could have been anticipated). Enrique filled this time with jokes and knowledge. The water show was ok. About of families and definitely something people look forward to. Overall the park was beautiful, clean, and very safe. Afterward we were to be dropped off at a restaurant. Again, atypical and on a holiday it was closed. Sterling and Enrique tried to find another place for us to eat but without luck (not without trying!). We had a great time with MP, Enrique, and Sterling. Truly a 9 hour tour. If you want a filling day to see some sights inside and outside of the city this is a great way to do that - WITH lunch! Also note: we were allowed to leave our luggage in Sterling transportation all day while we took the tours. VERY convenient. Will definitely book again with this company when we come back for a real Perú visit.

Excellent transport, complete experiences, from the cultural, shopping and distraction, you walk something so take comfortable shoe and a small back pack if you buy something, bathrooms at all times, nice photos, excellent guide with a lot of knowledge of the history of Peru
