Our first stop is at Plaza San Martín, a wonderful place designed and built to celebrate 100 years of independence from Spain. After that, we started walking through many popular streets where we can see the contrast between colonial churches, mansions, balconies and modern stores. This is a combination that will make you enjoy this ride! We visit the catacombs! Spanish cemeteries built under colonial churches are something you can not miss. Dare to walk through the cemetery and learn about the fascinating history of colonial Lima! We finish the tour visiting the Plaza de Armas where we can see the Government Palace, Archbishop's Palace and City Hall of Lima.

        The night tour is a definite must
        Thanks Djanira for making experience in Lima such a delight. I did the night tour and water show with Djanira in English and I had no problem understanding her. She went over and beyond and introduced me to some street food (on request) which I enjoyed. Overall, the tour was very professional and informative. Lima has a different feel at night and the water/light show is spectacular.

        Amazing experience at catacomb!
        Amazing tour which covers the Cathedral of San Francisco (museum and catacombs) and water show. Throughout the tour, Alex also showed us miscellaneous things like where the nice food were and history of other buildings.

        One of the best tours we have been on in South America
        Manuel was an excellent tour guide. He was knowledgable, friendly and paced the tour at the right speed for us. We were picked up from our hotel on time and then found we were privileged to be the only tourists in the afternoon meaning it was a personal tour. San Francisco museum and catacombs are beautiful and fascinating, the walk through the old city took in all of the major sites and included a Pisco sour tasting. We finished up in the Water Park. The fountains are captivating and the light show is informative and lovely to see. All In all one of the best tours we have been on in South America.

        Lima by Night Tour – A Quick but Enjoyable Overview of the center of Lima
        This tour offers a fast-paced but well-organized glimpse of Lima during the evening. Pickup was convenient from my hotel, though there was some traffic getting to the city center. The first stop was the Larco Museum and the catacombs, both of which were interesting. While photos aren’t allowed in the catacombs, the guide provided interesting insights into the monastery’s history. Next, we visited Plaza Mayor for a brief look at Lima’s historic center, including the palace and surrounding landmarks. Again, the guide shared valuable information, though the stop was quite short. The final stop was the Magic Water Circuit, where we strolled through the fountains before watching the colorful water show. It was a fun and relaxing way to end the evening. Overall, this tour is a great way to get a quick introduction to Lima’s history and attractions. Expect some traffic, especially on the way back—I left the water show at 7:30 PM but didn’t reach my hotel until around 8:30 PM. Despite the fast pace, it was a well-organized and enjoyable experience. Would recommend for those short on time!

        History explained in bones, water and light!
        This was an excellent trip that was very informative, interesting and mentally stimulating. Made all the more enjoyable by the excellent guide Juan Paulo who was engaging, humourous and genuinely interesting demonstrating knowledge of and experience of life and history of his country. His command of English was exemplary and his humour endearing. I would highly recommend this trip. It was also excellent value for money.

        Renzo grest tour
        Renzo wonderful and knowledgable. Great tour. Just be aware that our tour ended at 7:30 and they did not give me back to my hotel almost 9 PM. You may want to look at alternate arrangements to exit the tour and get back on your own.

        Great tour
        This was the best tour we did in Lima. Alex was so knowledgeable and he helped tailor the tour to the group. We had done a city tour earlier in the day but he gave us more information than the last guide. I learned so much about the history of Lima and Peru. The catacombs are really interesting and the water show was like nothing I had seen before. Thanks Alex for a great tour! And PS ask him to show you the best churros spot -so good!!!!
