The term “PACHACAMAC” originates from a Quechua term which signifies ‘the creator of the earth’.

Pachacamac is a wonderful experience - Sophia was absolutely amazing. She shared so much knowledge with me, in her wonderful communication skills that I can easily recall most of the exciting and interesting details to friends and family later on (instead of just saying vaguely "I had a great day"). The Pachacamac museum is really good, with so much details and information across all their exhibits and displays.

Great experience - It was a great experience to get to know more about the culture and the story of the Pachacamach temple and Lima with my guide Sophie. She is an excellent guide with a vast knowledge. I really enjoyed the time with her and I have learned a lot. Sophie was always there for me and answered professionally to all my questions. Michael was our driver and he had extreme care of us, driving us around the temple in a tremendous hot weather. I highly recommend this tour and the tour operator.

Interesting site near Lima - The agency was very friendly and reliable. The tour guide of the day was Jordan who was also very friendly and entertaining. He did not only explain the site, but also told us some interesting facts and anecdotes about life in Peru. The tour began in a small, but modern and beautifully arranged museum with some information about the site and artifacts found there. Afterwards, there was an extensive tour through the site by car and on foot. The site is huge and quite impressive and only partially explored. The desert landscape and the usual gray sky of Lima in the winter created a unique atmosphere. I enjoyed the trip and would recommend it to everyone who likes archeological sites and history. Expect delays due to traffic.

Great Guide - I love the fact that they pick you up at your hotel. There is no worry or trouble about finding where to catch your tour. The guide was very informative and on the way to the ruins told us facts about Peru. The tour was nice in that she gave facts about the ruins, went through the museum, then saw the ruins but let it be at our own pace. I am not someone who wants to stand there for 10 minutes looking at the remains or taking 100 pictures. I like to see it, hear some facts and move on. I liked that it's at our own pace. The guide was knowledgeable. The driver was very nice and opened my door and closed it every time. I thought about 3 hours was enough time. It's outside the city but not too far. Great tour.

Great excursion to Pachacamac - I had Kultour Peru recommended to me by the hotel front desk, and I selected the Pachacamac tour because it seemed one of the most "historical" tours in their brochure. I was not disappointed in the slightest; the tour was excellent. Jordan was very knowledgeable and informative, as well as being personally engaging. I would highly recommend this tour to others - it's a nice prelude to other Inca-related excursions such as Machu Picchu, etc. Very happy and satisfied customer.
