A real insight into Callao’s history - Juan is an enthusiastic and very knowledgeable guide. Juan grew up in Callao so knows the district really well and is passionate about sharing the history with you. The street art is quite old now and a lot is in areas unsafe to go into, so don’t expect too much if this is your expectation. I thoroughly enjoyed my visit, highly recommended :)
