The perfect way to explore downtown Lima - Had a great tour with tour guide Manuel. We learned a lot about Lima and its culture through the food, architecture, and history. We were able to try a wide variety of food, and visit some places in downtown Lima that we never would have gone otherwise. This was the perfect activity for the start of our stay in Lima. The tour was easily worth the money for quantity of food received and the quality of our guide.
