Santo Domingo Convent + Casa del Oidor or Larco Museum
Options
When booking, you can choose between 2 different options. Both include pickup from your hotel in Lima including return transfer:
3.5-hour Tour
If you choose this option, our first stop will be the exterior of the archaeological site of Huaca Pucllana. In front of its 25-metre high pyramid, we'll discover the pre-Hispanic history of Lima. Would you like to find out how they lived here between 200 and 800? Afterwards, we'll enjoy a tour of Lima's historic centre, contemplating the façades of some of its most emblematic places.
We'll also visit the Casa del Oidor, where we'll take a trip back in time to the middle of the 16th century. There, we'll enjoy a delicious tasting of Peruvian cacao.
Timetables: Departures at 8:30 am and 2 pm.
4.5-hour Tour
Would you like a longer tour? If you opt for this tour of Lima you'll have more time to explore the Peruvian capital. We'll see the pyramid of Huaca Huallamarca and the Larco Museum, the best private collection of pre-Columbian art in Peru. At this exhibition, we'll also taste a delicious lucuma mousse, a dessert made from an endemic fruit.
After visiting the convent of Santo Domingo, one of the best-preserved of the colony and climbing its tower, we'll end the tour.
Timetable: Departure at 8:30 am.
