Awesome Lima tour with Mariano

Published on Dec, 2023

Mariano was excellent imparting the history and culture of Lima and Peru. So knowledgeable and so easy to listen to. I fell in love with Lima and didn’t want this tour to end

This is the perfect tour to familiarize yourself with Lima, the city and its popular destinations.

Published on Sep, 2023

Kind and knowledgeable tour guide catered the trip to our interests and shared her extensive knowledge of Lima. Best tour ever!

Great start to visit Lima

Published on Oct, 2022

This was a fun way to see Lima. John Paul was very friendly and informative. This tour was amazing and highly recommend it.

Peru Street food is a must!

Published on Sep, 2022

We did the Lima street food tour with Paula. And boy was it just amazing to end our Peru trip with a filled tummy! We learnt so much about Peruvian cuisine. We had ChiFa (Chinese-Peruvia), yummy churros, and so many more! Our guide Paula was amazing and very knowledgeable. She looked after us very well. We also learnt a lot about the history of Peru. Thank you Paula for an awesome tour!

Wonderful walking tour in Lima

Published on Sep, 2019

We, my husband, me and two friends, booked a walking tour with Urban Adventures for an afternoon walking tour on our one day in Lima. Our guide was Paula, and she was wonderful, very knowledgeable, funny and personable. Her English was great, and she did not only show us interesting sites in the city, including a wonderful market, she also took us on the bus tot the center of the city, and talked about the Peruvian culture, politics etc. It was a wonderful way to learn much about Lima and Peru in a short time, and from a wonderful warm and funny person like Paula.
