Day 1 | ARRIVE TO LIMA.

Pick up and transfer from the airport to your hotel.

The tour starts with picking up our passengers from their hotels in Lima. We then visit Intihuatana Park on the Miraflores Malecon, where we can view the Pacific Ocean. Our journey continues through the residential areas of Miraflores and San Isidro, where we will see the exterior of Huaca Pucllana, a pre-Inca ceremonial temple pyramid that has survived Lima’s urban expansion.

Next, we head to El Olivar Park and drive to Lima’s Historic Center, a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1991, where the Spanish colonial center was established in the sixteenth century with its first buildings. We will visit San Martin Plaza, admire its balconies and old houses, explore Plaza Mayor and its key landmarks including the Government Palace, the Cathedral of Lima, the Archbishop's Palace, and the Municipal Palace.

We will enter one of the most significant monasteries from the seventeenth century, where the relics of the three Peruvian saints—Santa Rosa de Lima, San Martin de Porres, and San Juan Macías—are preserved. Afterward, we return to Miraflores, and the tour concludes with the option to stay at the Larcomar local market before returning to your hotel.
