Traveler story from the Lima City Tour

EXPLORING LIMA WITH OUR PASSENGER RUBÍ

From the moment we arrived in Lima, we felt very warmly welcomed. The team was always attentive and kind, which allowed us to begin the tour feeling relaxed and comfortable. During the four-hour city tour of Lima, we learned more about the city’s history while enjoying the atmosphere along the way.

The experience was very pleasant from beginning to end. The service was very well organized, and we felt supported at all times. We took home wonderful memories of Lima and were very happy with the attention we received. It was a highly recommended tour for anyone looking to start discovering the city.

 Verified Tudo perfeito
Eu e meu marido adoramos o passeio. Tudo ocorreu muito bem desde a reserva que fiz diretamente com a Cusco Peru ainda no Brasil. Fui muito bem atendida pelo whatsapp. No dia anterior a visita a Macchu Picchu, Effrain foi ao nosso hotel, explicar todo o itinerário detalhadamente. No dia do passeio nosso motorista, Rosel, estava na porta do hotel pontualmente para nos deixar na estação de trem. De lá seguimos até Águas Calientes onde encontramos nossa guia Maria. Fomos muito bem direcionados e também muito bem recebidos por todos os colaboradores da empresa. Também ganhamos brindes para guardar de recordação.

 Verified Cusco & Machu Picchu
It was very well done. CuscoPeru did a fantastic job with my tour. Efrain picked me up on time at the airport. Both Julio and Henry did a great job with super information the first 2 days. The buffet lunch the tour provided was top shelf, including sushi. On day 3 Eddy did a wonderful job explaining all of Machu Picchu. My tour was for Circuit 1, but he somehow managed to get me on Circuit 3 as well. It was a day I will never forget. All hotel accommodations were very comfortable. I would recommend this tour to anyone

 Verified Highly recommended
The trip was great! Our driver Roselito picked us up from the hotel and was very knowledgeable in the history of region, took us on the scenic route. Once we got on the train, it included snacks and drinks (water, coffee, or tea). Once we got to Aguascalientes, we were met by our tour guide Renato and Norma. Norma made sure we met our tour guide Renato, and made sure we got on the bus. Once we arrived at the entrance of Machu Pichu, we were met by our tour guide Renato. It was a pleasant experience. Pictures don’t do the site justice. Our tour guide Renato gave us an overview of the site and significance of the layout. I highly recommend booking with the company, and if possible make sure you get Roselito as your driver from Cusco to the train station.

 Verified Fun and exciting!
I had a custom 9-day tour. I told the booking agents the things I wanted see and do in Peru and they came up with an itinerary. I really enjoyed all the day trips and when I needed to make an adjustment during the tour, Efrain (my coordinator) was right on it. He was always available to answer my questions, which really made me feel comfortable travelling alone. Also, the tour guides and drivers were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I highly recommend CuscoPeru to anyone who wants interesting/fun tours and/or needs a little assistance in planning what to do!

Frequently asked questions about the Lima City Tour

Find answers about the visits, walking, tasting, and the tour's meeting and finishing points.

Does the tour enter Huaca Pucllana?

Huaca Pucllana is included in the itinerary. Before you book, we’ll confirm whether it is a panoramic stop or whether an additional visit option is available.

Will we enter Lima Cathedral and the other landmarks?

The tour visits the Main Square and features the Cathedral and Government Palace among its main sights. However, the page does not state that admission tickets are included. We will explain how each stop operates so you know which visits are exterior and whether any interior access is available.

How much walking is involved?

Part of the experience takes place on a tourist bus, but you will also walk through streets, parks, and plazas. The page does not provide an exact distance, so comfortable walking shoes are recommended. Please tell us before booking if you have limited mobility.

I do not drink alcohol. Can I still join the tour?

Yes. You can enjoy the complete sightseeing route and simply skip the pisco and wine tasting. If you would like a nonalcoholic alternative, ask us when booking so we can check what is available for your departure.

Is this a good tour for a first visit to Lima?

Yes. In approximately four hours, you will see two representative parts of the city: Miraflores and the Historic Center. It is a practical introduction to Lima, although it does not replace a detailed interior visit to every landmark.
