Ancestral Lima
We begin our city tour with a panoramic view of the “Huaca Pucllana,” a magnificent ceremonial and archaeological center built in the 4th century A.D. and considered a “Sacred Village” by the Incas. The Viceroyalty of Peru was the most important in the Spanish Empire, and Lima was its capital.
Colonial Lima
On the tour, we visit the Historical Center of Lima, where you will appreciate more than fifty monuments and colonial buildings, including the Paseo de la República, Plaza San Martin, Plaza Mayor, Government Palace, Archbishop's Palace, Cathedral Basilica, and Municipal Palace, among others. We visit the SAN FRANCISCO MONUMENTAL COMPLEX, which constitutes the largest display of colonial religious art in America. A highlight is the visit to its underground crypts known as "Catacombs."
Contemporary Lima
Depending on where the tour begins, we will visit the most traditional residential areas of Lima either at the start or the end of the city tour: Olivar Park in San Isidro and the Love Park (Parque del Amor) in Miraflores, from where we will have a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean.
