Highlights

This city tour combines the classic highlights of Lima’s historic center with alternative, less touristic hidden gems. On this private tour, you’ll visit the traditional highlights such as the Plaza San Martin, Plaza de Armas with the Cathedral, Government Palace and City Hall and the San Francisco Church but you’ll also pass by the remainders of Lima’s city walls, China Town, the Central Market and many other hidden gems. Of course, the guide will tell you all about the history behind the colonial buildings but also share interesting facts and stories of life in Lima.


What makes this city tour of Lima unique is its alternative and local touch. Some of the places you'll visit are usually not included in the traditional city walking tours. Even though it’s just a block away from the main touristic area, these places are filled with locals going about their daily business.

Itinerary

  • Centro Histórico

    3 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    You will walk by the major highlights of the historic centre of Lima: Plaza San Martin with the majestic Hotel Bolivar, the impressive Plaza de Armas or the main square of Lima with the Cathedral, City Hall, the Archbishop’s Palace and the Government Palace, the old train station transformed into the House of Literature, the San Francisco church and the many beautiful mansions with the typical wooden balconies. Besides these classics, your guide will also take you to some hidden gems such as the Park of the City Wall with a view of one of Lima’s oldest human settlements, Chinatown and the bustling Central Market, where many locals do their shopping. You’ll walk through a part of Lima that is just outside the tourist area but gives you a good idea of the ‘real’ Lima, full of people, little shops, a lot of colors. Your guide will tell you interesting facts about daily life in Lima, contemporary and recent history, and of course answer all your questions about life in Lima!
