Departure Point

  • Cementerio de Nueva Esperanza, Lima, Peru
    After a 50-minute drive, you will reach the first stop, which is the second-largest cemetery in the world. It's a very impressive and colorful place, different than any other cemetery you have visited before. It is located amidst the hills and human settlements and represents the interesting Andean burial traditions. The view is amazing and, if you're into photography, you will surely take a bunch of artistic photos.
    30 minutes
  • San Juan De Miraflores, San Juan De Miraflores, Peru
    After the visit to the cemetery, you'll head towards the human settlement where you will first visit a local lady who has started her own small business and artisan workshop in her house. She will tell you more about herself and her business. The bilingual guide teams up with a local guide who will show you around the neighborhood and take you to meet several local families and community leaders. The first stop is the house of the local cook who has prepared a delicious homemade lunch for you. After lunch, the local guide will show you around and tell you more about daily life with its many challenges but also its many positive initiatives. The people who live there have worked hard to build a real community and you'll get to meet some of these community leaders. The guide will also tell you more about the local project your visit supports. On some days you'll even be able to see their activities with the participating kids in action.

As cool as the touristy areas of Lima are, those places don’t really represent the lifestyle of many if not most Peruvians - this tour made venturing Into the lesser known and somewhat intimidating areas much more approachable and I learned so much about the country, its culture, and some of its most pressing issues. My guide Alfredo, along with everyone he introduced me to, was great. I won’t spoil the tour by giving much away, but highly recommend!

Thank you, Alfredo, for showing us the different sides of Peru outside the main city. Our tour was very unique, memorable, and Educational!

After an Amazon visit we had an extra day in Lima before traveling home. This social tour gave us real insights into the lives of the people living in the settlements outside of Lima. I highly recommend this tour with Alfredo as it provides the human side of Peruvians who work together facing challenges foreign to many of us visiting their country
