One fine day in Lima - Each stop of the tour was a highlight for us. We cannot exclude any of the spots we visited. Every single places in the itinerary had its unique beauty and history that stands out. It was a great tour for anyone having just a day in Lima. We were picked up on time from our hotel. There were four of us friends that did this tour and the minute we hopped on the vehicle our fun started. Pamela, our tour guide and Sterling, our driver made the start of the day very comfortable for us. It was a tour for a maximum group of ten but we were so excited when we learned it was just the four of us. Now, this was our private tour. We have been traveling and do tours on each of our travels. Pamela was the best tour guide ever we have had. Very natural and at the end of the day she became our friend. We love to take pictures that she had even choreographed for us 😊. She is very knowledgeable of the sites and explained well to us every details. The sites included on this tour were very interesting and ending it with the magical fountain show was really magic. Peruvian Worldwide Tours is the best. Communication was superb. When we requested last minute if they could possibly accommodate our luggages to bring us straight to the airport after the tour, the response was so quick and was accommodated with care. The Fortaleza de Felipe was very interesting. The visit to the fish market was superb. To see all fresh fishes and all kinds of sea shells was astounding. The market was clean and we didn’t even notice a single fly. The Plaza mayor was filled with fun and activities since we were there on a Saturday. Families were chilling on the premises. I could go on and on but bottomline was having a great tour with Pamela and Sterling from Peruvian Worldwide Tours. Thank you both for taking care of us for that day. I highly recommend this tour as it is very worthwhile.
