Great Way to Visit Lima - We enjoyed our tour to Lima, which included a one and a half hour walking tour of the historical center. Our tour guide was amazing and helped us navigate a very busy historical centre given it was a national holiday. There was so much more to see than I had imagined. Lima’s historic centre is quite grand with most of it accessible on a pedestrian path. It was New Year’s Day, and everyone was out celebrating. I think we would’ve been lost without a guide. The bus to and from the historic centre was comfortable, although some conflict arose about seat switching, which had nothing to do with the tour company, but some very arrogant tourists on board became extremely aggressive and antagonizing to all the Latino tourists on the bus. My children and I were quite shocked and everybody was very uncomfortable with their aggression. This is not reflection on the company. We were on the upper deck and the guides were on the main deck.

Get to know Lima - Good experience to get to know the areas and some history. Especially loved the Pisco taste testing. The bus was very fun, and mostly open air but with a roof.

Very good - Very practical for those who stay near Larcomar because it leaves there and you have transportation back and forth without worrying about traffic. Well the city tour of the historic center, pisco tasting and you will see the different neighborhoods along the way

A good way to see a lot of the sights in a morning.. - A very good and well organised tour only spoilt by severe traffic and demonstrations around the city. Our guide was very professional and knowledgeable and was patient too. Saw a lot of good things and managed to tick quite a few of must see things in the city. Good job all round ..

Disappointed! - The date changed on the website and Viator kept saying different answers on there ability to help us. We were able to contact the tour company directly and work it out. Tour guide was very fast and a few of our guests couldn’t keep up. We were disappointed!

Very disappointed - Very frustrating. I have done many of these types of tours throughout the world and this was most disappointing. Extremely hard to hear guide, stops were very short, 5 to 10 minutes. We reached downtown location and were dumped out for 90 minutes, most of other passengers had no idea what was going on. We jumped on another bus back to starting point and got confusing and incorrect info from tour guide. Didn't learn anything about Lima.
