Itinerary and highlights

Your journey begins at Huaca Pucllana, one of Lima's most remarkable pre-Columbian archaeological sites, located in the heart of the modern district of Miraflores. Unlike most city tours that only stop for exterior photos, this experience includes a guided visit inside the archaeological complex. Walk among the ancient adobe pyramids and discover the fascinating history of the Lima Culture, which flourished here over 1,500 years ago. Your expert guide will explain the site's construction, religious significance, and the discoveries made by archaeologists, offering a unique glimpse into Peru's ancient past before continuing to Lima's colonial and modern highlights.

Next, we'll continue to Lima's historic city center and visit the iconic Main Square (Plaza de Armas), the birthplace of the City of Kings. Surrounded by magnificent colonial architecture, you'll admire some of Lima's most important landmarks, including the Government Palace, the Municipal Palace, the Cathedral of Lima, and the historic Desamparados Railway Station. As you stroll through this UNESCO World Heritage Site, your guide will share fascinating stories about the city's foundation, colonial heritage, and the events that shaped Peru's history.

For those who wish to enhance their experience, an optional guided visit to the Convent of Santo Domingo and its fascinating catacombs is available. Discover one of Lima's oldest and most important religious landmarks, renowned for its beautiful colonial architecture, peaceful cloisters, and rich history. Beneath the convent, explore the mysterious underground catacombs, which served as one of Lima's earliest burial sites and offer a unique glimpse into the city's colonial past.

Enjoy a pleasant walk along the Miraflores Malecón and stop at the Love Park (Parque del Amor), where you'll admire "The Kiss," a famous sculpture created by a renowned Peruvian artist.

We then continue to the Chinese Park (Parque Chino), a gift from the Chinese government to Lima's scenic waterfront. Here, you may have the chance to enjoy live instrumental music while taking in the ocean views. You can also relax with a drink at Le Baiser Français, a charming café overlooking the Pacific.

We'll conclude your tour at Larcomar, Lima's iconic cliffside shopping and entertainment center overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Take in the spectacular coastal views, browse its boutiques, or simply relax before the end of your experience. As a special touch, we'll treat you to a complimentary beverage, the perfect way to unwind while enjoying one of the city's most beautiful locations.
