Full description
Discover the best of Lima on a tour through its ancestral, colonial, and modern eras. Visit the Pucllana Pyramid, the UNESCO Historic Center, the San Francisco Catacombs, and the Gold Collection at the BCRP Museum. End your day with breathtaking ocean views in Miraflores.
Experience Lima's vibrant history and modern charm with a journey through its three defining stages: Ancestral, Colonial, and Modern Lima. The tour begins with a panoramic view of the Pucllana Pyramid, an ancient 4th-century ceremonial center built long before the Incas. In the Historic Center, we will walk through the Plaza Mayor and appreciate over fifty colonial monuments and buildings, including the Government Palace, the Archbishop's Palace, and the Cathedral Basilica.
As we delve deeper into Peruvian heritage, we will visit the Central Reserve Bank Museum to admire its "Treasures of Peru" collection, featuring pre-Columbian gold, ceramics, and textiles. A highlight of the trip is the San Francisco Monumental Complex, where you will explore the mysterious underground crypts known as the Catacombs. The journey concludes in Lima’s contemporary districts, San Isidro and Miraflores, visiting the historic El Olivar grove and the scenic Parque del Amor, overlooking the Pacific Ocean.
