Viaje Perú - Excellent tour made in the city of Lima. Very entertaining and would do it again. Lots of traffic. But you can still enjoy

Walk through Lima - Yanet Herrera was our wonderful guide on this tour that surprised us at every moment. We emphasize that the information and the way he transmitted his knowledge about the history and potential of each place with such passion made the tour unforgettable. Thank you Yanet for these moments and experiences that we will take with us to Uruguay!

Gabby and Gabriel are great tour guides - Both parts of this trip were great. Am saw the central historical district and pm saw the Larco museum and magic water. So much great information was given the entire time. Their English was excellent and they knew the answers to all of our questions. Would definitely recommend this tour, this operator and these guides

Two thumbs up - Ursula is very knowledgeable about Peru’s history. I got to sample all Peru’s dishes, appetizers, desserts with Pisco during lunch in one of their best restaurants. To top it a drink in a bar with a big Peruvian sandwich and Pisco again late afternoon before going to the magic water circuit. Highly recommended tour!!!

Beatiful Lima - This was an easy and interesting way to discover Lima highlights. The trip to Larco museum was great. I have travelled a lot over the world, seen a lot of museums. Larco museum is a must.

Long day - but lots to see and do! - This tour starts early in the day - you drive around Lima and see some of the city sites. You then get dropped off at this buffet restaurant and then have to kill a few hours (which is at a shopping centre/by the coast) because your guide leaves you there then you need to get to the pick up point for the afternoon/evening guide. If I had known that, I would have booked it as two half day tours and gotten dropped off and picked up back at the hotel. Also - as an FYI - the company that runs these tours is not responsive to emails to confirm the activities. They ignored my many emails and Messenger posts. I was lucky that they showed up per my booking - there was no confirmation prior to the event. The Larco Museum and Water Circuit was the highlight of this tour.

A relaxed paced day - The tour was the full day but you were given a couple hours to explore a mall area/lunch place on the coast. Prior to the lunch you have a tour of most of the highlights of the city and the government. The evening is full of history and child like fun with the variety of fountains at the park. Gabrielle was awesome and made our evening part of the trip so awesome!

Very good - The tour was split into 2 tours of ~3h. We had a reservation at a restaurant in between. The tours were very interesting but the time allocated for the lunch was too long. However, very good tour with a local twist at a tavern!

Disappointing arrangement Vistor - Viator agreed to and received $300 for 4 people for a dinner and a tour of Lima fountain. The tour guide never responded nor showed up. We had a wasted night on sep 7 Please don’t book any tours on viator as they are not responsive and have a poor management.i am still waiting on a refund. I have other telephone charges in a foreign country trying to reach the tour guide and no success.
