Incredible experience in Huacachina - Joseph was an excellent guide, very concerned, he took pictures that he took care of sharing one by one and those kinds of details make a difference.

Excellent experience - My first time in Peru, it has been amazing, the food, the landscapes and its people have made the experience unforgettable. Lima Experience and guide Yoced Cespedes have made everything much easier, from the hour-long pickup at the door of the hotel, to the sunset show in the oasis of Huacachina, the professionalism and excellent attitude of Yoced are definitely something I will take from this experience back to Colombia, 100% recommended and would return again if Lima Experience and Yoced are part of the experience.

The best touch I've ever made - An absolutely wonderful experience with Lima Experience. From the first moment we were made to feel cared for and accompanied. The deal was impeccable, close and super professional. Our guide, Fernando, has been watching us with a love and dedication that are not easily found. You can tell when someone does their job with love, and he conveys it in every explanation, in every detail and in every gesture. The experiences we lived were just amazing. Authentic, well organized and full of moments that stay in the heart. If you are thinking of taking a tour in Lima, do not hesitate for a second. Really... you don't have to think about it. It's a resounding yes.

Good option for a single day in Lima - Very good service from Yelsin, everything well organized, only the food and optional breakfast service was not good, they could make contact with another better place.

Misrepresented - The tour itself was fine, but misrepresented in the advertisement. The bus was very old and unmarked. It did not have USB ports or wifi, and the temperature fluctuated from warm to really cold. While the dune buggy tour was good, you are only in the actual dune buggy for ~15 minutes. For the price, there are better values out there.
