The guide was punctual. Along the way, he gave me a lot of information concerning the city, the history, etc., in addition to the relevant information of the tour. He was enthusiastic and committed to his job.

Unser Guide Daniel hat uns pünktlich am vereinbarten Treffpunkt abgeholt. Das Fahrzeug war in Topzustand. Daniel sprach gut verständliches Englisch und gab viele spannende Informationen. Das Museum war unerwartet modern und vielfältig. Großes Außengelände, das zum Glück mit dem Auto befahren werden konnte. Wäre sonst wegen der enormen Hitze nicht auszuhalten gewesen.

These ruins are impressive and quite close to downtown Lima. The museum was informative and not overwhelming. Definitely recommend a tour with Gaby to explain all the details of the museum and the ruins.
