AvailableThis city tour serves up some of Lima’s best attractions and introduces travelers to the city’s pre-colonial, colonial, and modern periods.
This tour starts with a panoramic view of the Pucllana Pyramid (also known as Huaca Pucllana), a ceremonial center built in the 4th century AD. This adobe pyramid is considered sacred by the Incas, and is a good place to take photos and revel in ancient culture.
Next up is the historical center of Lima, where you’ll appreciate more than fifty monuments, including the Paseo de la República, the San Martín Square, the Main Square, the Government Palace, the Archbishop’s Palace, the Cathedral Basilica, and the City Council Palace.
The San Francisco Convent is next. This 16th-century convent has one of the largest collections of religious art in the Americas. You’ll also visit the convent’s catacombs – these underground vaults were once used as a public cemetery, and some still house arrangements of skulls and bones.
This tour concludes with visits to contemporary Lima. You’ll see traditional residential areas of Lima, including El Olivar of San Isidro, Miraflores and Larcomar.
This tour lasts 3.5 hours.

The Anywhere team was planning and helping us thru out the process. Right from picking us up from the airport to dropping us back to the hotel. They created a WhatsApp group to communicate with us every day and answered our questions within a few minutes. Thanks to Lisbeth and Jose in Cusco. Eduardo in Machu Pichu, Anna Maria in Puno and Sara and Samuel in Lima. They are worked like a team to ensure our trip was well planned and executed. Big thanks to Cesar for the great planning and suggestions along the way.

This was a very personal experience and Anywhere.com does an amazing job of having agents who are cultured and/or very familiar with the country to which you wish to visit. This allows the agent to listen to what you want to experience and then match you up with the right outfitter, vendor, excursion group, etc...I felt like Sara Nizama truly listened to my wants/needs and made them a reality. I am so happy with my Peru experience, thanks to Sara and her team. I want to go back soon and explore more of Peru with the help of Sara and her team. Thank you!

Peru is bursting with history, interesting sites and friendly people and tourists from all parts of the world. We wished our hotels were a bit better and should have requested upgrades for a reasonably higher price. We have already recommended Peru to family and friends. Our photos and videos on Facebook have evoked several inquiries. I would certainly like to visit Peru again along with other countries of South America.
