We booked a tour with Lima City tours in advance as we had 2 days in Lima. We did have to pre-pay part of the tour. Once we arrived at Miraflores the Cruise drop off in Lima, we couldn't see a sign with our name as promised - as we were 5 Min early we started to walk up and down and look at all the guides/traxidrivers waiting but couldn't see a sign, we waited for 2 more buses to arrive and drop off people and also were close to the bus exist - but we couldn't find any sign for us. We did not have a local phone/data plan and were unable to contact Jhnony. We did a tour with one of the locals - after being back on the ship we contacted Jhnoy right away as we also booked an evening tour and we wanted to make sure that there is really someone to pick us up, as we arrived again there was no sign, after walking around for another 10 Min my husband saw a person with a white folded paper and walked to him - sure enough that was our sign except we couldn't see it. To top it off they wanted us to pay then for the whole morning tour too. We were accused that it is our fault - as I do not think it is me to have to hold up the sign. In the end we paid still less money to take a local taxi driver who (after we talked to fellow cruise members) did the same tour as we did. Only difference is that we likely got less back ground information and history but that is not a big deal for us. And we also never got our pre-paid money back - as we got told we did not show up (but we did wasted nearly an hour including both times searching for them)

Jhony went out of his way to accommodate us. He was punctual on time and made sure we stay together as group. You wont find a better tour at the same affordable price. Thanks Jhony

Great tour! We came with no expectations, but it was actually really great and a good deal for the money. The guide was nice and really flexible with schedule and we got time to enjoy every part of the tour! The degustacion which was some random extra activity which we didn't care much about, revealed itself to be actually one of the highlight of the trip, with great explainations and many nice tastings. Totally recommended

i think this trip can t be improved..all in all a Desaster when you compare the price with the experience...30 second Photostop at huachina..almost 9 hours of driving and 2 hours waiting time In my Personal top 3 of the worst Trip ever done

I went on the Pachacamac and Lima City tours, both with great guide named Enrique. Both tours were terrific. You learn about Incan culture at holy site of Pachacamac and at the fabulous Larco Museum. I highly recommend both tours.

Booked and paid for a private city tour before leaving the UK. Communication from Jhony was good at that stage. However, we were badly let down. Failed to turn up at our hotel and could not make contact via the mobile or office numbers. We were only in Lima for a day and a half and this shoddy treatment ruined our stay as we spent almost an entire morning just waiting around. Do think twice before using this company or Jhony as they/he appear to have done this on more than one occasion - see other reviews. The only saving grace is that our money was refunded but that does not make up for the disappointment.

The tour was well paced. Transportation was comfortable and timely. We had enough time in each stops and we were blessed with good weather so no big waves while in Paracas and it was tolerable in the Desert. Had a great lunch and Pisco tasting in Ica.

I decided to take this tour just the afternoon before and grateful I made that decision. It was the cheapest tour I could find and I got more out than I would have expected. Everyone was super helpful and even tho I booked on short notice I got picked up from my hotel. The places we visited were simply amazing. We had a 90 minute boat ride were we saw penguins, sea lions and the nasca lines. Afterwards we visited Huacachina and had an amazing 2 hours Buggy ride in the gorgeous desert, including sandboarding. Our guide was great, super friendly, did a lot of explanations and helped wherever he could. The restaurants were we stopped were all carefully picked and affordable, from the tiny roadside breakfast place with freshly made typical Peruvian breads, to the lunch place where we got a short wine tour, including free samples. I had an amazing day and can totally recommend to take this tour!

DO NOT RECOMMEND!! After paid and confirmation from viatour, we waited for our hotel pick up time from the tour company. no communication whatsoever, then we tried to call, dirctly to voice mail. Tour day, we waited at hotel lobby at 4:45am, then we have got call at 5:15am from tour company, that our tour has been canceled due to inefficent people join. They offer us to pay extra 30US dollar per person for a private tour. THIS IS NOT A TOUR COMPANY, THEY ARE FRAUD, LEAVE YOU TO THE LAST MINUTE, GIVE YOU NO CHOICE THEN ASK YOU FOR MORE MONEY. If you read my review and still join this tour, good luck my friend, to prepare for your miserable and unperfesional service.

As a tourist we plan our visit to the country in a schedule time. Unfortunately this tour was cancelled at the last minute by the tour company due other people from the tour group have got sick, we understand and we are sorry that the others couldn’t attend the tour but that is not our problem and we were ready to go. The tour company cancelled and suggest us to pay extra $35 each if we still want to attend the tour, meaning they would be able to do the tour but they won’t because others won’t attend which we think is unfair. Although We tried to negotiate paying for one the extra charge and attending two which they denied and cancelled the tour, disregarding us totally and not seeing our point of view as a tourist. We are very disappointed the way we were treated.

This is a really well-organised and intensive trip! We visit the islands outside of Paracas, the desert in Huacachina and Pisco-destillery in the end. It is a day-trip from Lima, which means that it is possible to explore a lot in a limited time. The guiding is very good, and the guests are an international mix, making it possible to make new friends. The trip is done by a minibus, so the group size is also not too large The trip lasts a long time. We left the hotel at 5am and was back at 10pm, so I recommend to bring a bag with things that you could possible need for a long day by the seaside and in the desert

I used Lima City Tours for multiple locations and was very satisfied. I used the company for a few trips outside of Lima where I needed someone to take me around. If you don't wish to take a local or tour bus, this is the best alternative. The drivers and guides were excellent, and made my trip warm, memorable and special. The management was prompt and professional, Jhony being a great manager and coordinator to make everything happened on time and performed well. Overall, a very solid company for a very solid experience.

I unexpectedly ended up stranded in Lima overnight due to poor weather conditions in Cusco. My hotel, Wyndham/airport arranged this tour for a few of us. Maria & Diego picked us up from our hotel, taking us for an evening tour of Lima. Maria was extremely knowledgeable of the city and history, and even made dinner reservations for us, dropping us off at our restaurant at the end of the tour. It was a great way to spend 4 hours in the city.

We took the afternoon tour that included pick-up by minibus and walking. This is good way to see and hear about Lima's history if only one day in Lima. The best parts were first sight of Huaca Pucllana, architecture around the squares and the convent visit. We had seen the Miraflores beach and cliffs previously on ride from airport. Guide was very good and answered all questions.

We had a free afternoon to spend on a general tour so booked this one. Price was high for what we got - a few token stops and some commentary by a guide we could barely understand. The tour started at 2:30 and headed into downtown Lima. That ut us in gridlock traffic for our return which took two hours. Nobody wanting to make a good impression should book tours in Lima during rush hour unless yo like to watch 11,000,000 going by. Save your money and take a walk around on your own.
