Tour description

The best way to get to know Lima is by walking. You will love delving into its stories, legends, hidden passages , influential people, secrets and great mysteries . That is exactly what you will learn.

In Lima Centro you will find us in Plaza San Martin.
The tour begins by explaining the Plaza San Martin, then we will go along Jirón de la Unión where we will see important buildings such as La Iglesia la Merced, to finally arrive at the Plaza de Armas and see its main buildings. We will go to Boulevard Chabuca Granda, here we will find the most typical Peruvian desserts . We will continue through Parque de la Murralla, we will find a mini zoo , we will visit the Iglesia San Francisco (where the catacombs are located), we will cross one of the streets with the most beautiful architecture in Lima and finally we will end our tour at the Casa de la Literatura Peruana and the emblematic Bar Cordano.


#IMPORTANT
This is a free tour, like all walking tours around the world, the guides work independently, covering our own transportation and logistics (payment to the GurúWalk platform, among others). We will try to provide good company, so we hope to be well rewarded at the end of the tour. It is normal for guides to expect to receive between 60 and 100 soles per person, considering that these tours usually cost up to 70 USD per person.

We are waiting for you, we are sure you will enjoy it.
