Wonderful tour of Larco Museum with Maria - I had the pleasure of experiencing a guided tour of the Larco Museum with Maria, and it was truly outstanding. Maria's deep knowledge of the museum's artifacts and her ability to contextualize the rich history and culture of Peru made the experience both enlightening and engaging. Her passion for the subject matter was evident in every explanation, and she effortlessly connected the exhibits to broader historical and cultural narratives.

Great morning experience - The Larco Museum is beautiful and interesting. I really appreciated the visits to the Viceroy’s house, the walk through the streets, and the Archeological Museum as well. My guide Luis was friendly, courteous and informative. Thank you.

Ricardo was a wonderful guide & educator! He should teach at the university level! - Ricardo was our museum guide. He had incredible knowledge of Peruvian history (which I validated by surreptitiously fact-checking some information periodically). He was passionate, serious, but also entertaining, humorous. We enjoyed our visit. We got educated. He helped us appreciate Peru, its people, culture. He put modern Peru also in the context of present day - its continuing struggle. He made us want to know & understand more.

Tour guide Manuel was excellent - I had a great tour at the Larco museum. My guide, Manuel, was very knowledgable and told me many interesting things about the objects and the different cultures in Peru. Due to his excellent and pleasant attitude the whole tour became the highlight of my 3 days visit to Lima. I highly recommend this tour and museum and highly can recommend Manuel as a tour guide for future travellers.

An exvellent guide, Manuel, and and very good museum - I had an excellent tour with Manuel, one of the best guides I ever had. He was very pleasant and gave a very good explanation about the items on display. Through him, I gain more knowledge about the different cultures from the past in Peru. The Larco museum and the agency and Manuel, should be a highlight for a Lima visit. Very much recommended.
