Detailed Description
Experience the enchanting essence of Lima on this vibrant tour that begins with pick-up at your hotel or a meeting point in Miraflores. Our first destination is the iconic Parque del Amor, a place that majestically stands over the waterfront, offering spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean. This park, famous among lovers, houses the impressive sculpture "El Beso" by the renowned Peruvian artist Víctor Delfín.
We continue our adventure with a panoramic visit to the Huaca Pucllana, an archaeological gem located in the heart of the city. This ancient adobe pyramid, belonging to the Lima culture between 200 and 700 AD, was discovered in 1980, revealing a fascinating past.
Next, we`ll head to the charming El Olivar Park in San Isidro, a lush 10-hectare space that houses more than 1900 century-old olive trees and charming colonial houses.
Continuing our tour through Lima`s historic center, we`ll explore Plaza San Martín and the iconic Plaza de Armas, where you can marvel at the Government Palace, the Archbishop`s Palace, the Municipal Palace, and the majestic Lima Cathedral.
Immerse yourself in history in the catacombs of the Convent of San Francisco, the most extensive and best-preserved in South America. This enigmatic place, which served as the city`s main cemetery until 1810, houses the skeletal remains of more than 25 thousand people.
To crown this unique experience, you`ll have the opportunity to taste the famous Pisco Sour, Peru`s traditional cocktail made with pisco liquor and lemon juice. Alternatively, subject to availability, you can visit the Central Reserve Bank.
Embark on this fascinating journey through Lima, filled with history, culture, and unique flavors that will captivate you from beginning to end
