Highlights

Have you already explored Miraflores and Barranco? Are you ready to leave the tourist bubble and discover another side of Lima? Discover the Lima that most visitors never see. This full-day experience takes you beyond the traditional tourist districts and into the neighborhoods where the majority of Limeños live, work, study, and build their daily lives. Through an anthropological and social perspective, we explore the rapid growth of Lima, the development of its outer districts, migration from the Andes, urban challenges, transportation, politics, music, food culture, social inequality, public safety, informal economies, local identity, contemporary cultural trends, and the realities that have shaped modern Peru. This is not a poverty tour. It is an opportunity to understand how millions of Peruvians actually live and how Lima became one of the largest and most complex cities in Latin America. This experience offers a side of Lima that few travelers ever get to go. Max. 7 people

About Lima

Lima, Peru's capital on clifftops above the Pacific, is a city of colonial plazas, pre-Inca ruins and an exciting, celebrated food scene.

The historic centre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, revolves around the Plaza Mayor, with the cathedral, the Government Palace and the Archbishop's Palace with its carved wooden balconies. The Monastery of San Francisco hides catacombs beneath its yellow church, and the colonial mansions around it recall the riches of the viceroyalty.

Top-ranked sights in Lima: Miraflores, Lima Plaza Mayor, Church and Convent of Saint Francis (Iglesia y Convento de San Francisco).
