We couldn’t leave Peru without seeing the best of Lima.
The Larco Museum was without a doubt one of my favorite places to visit in Lima. What a beautiful museum full of history, culture and traditions. Our guide Felipe was very knowledgeable about all the pieces that are in the museum. It was so interesting to learn from him about all the different pre-Columbian civilizations in Peru and their legacy. After our tour, we stayed at the restaurant’s museum having a great time in that beautiful place.
During the day, we also visited the Historical center of Lima and had time to learn about the colonial Peru in San Martin Square, Plaza de Armas and the Cathedral. Susan our tour guide, explained to us how Peru got its independence from Spain and about the catacombs found in the Cathedral, very interesting! She also took us to Barranco, a bohemian neighborhood in Lima with some of its streets full of artistic graffiti images.
At the end of the day, Ernesto the driver of a very comfortable and clean SUV, took us to the airport to take our flight back home safe and sound.
Thank you Lima Highlight Tours for a great day in Lima!
