CITY TOUR

US$ 38
You will be picked up from your hotel early in the morning to go on the City Tour, a guided tour around the city of Lima (capital of the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru during colonial times).


The tour starts from the Plaza Mayor (Main Square) in the Historic Center of Lima, with explanations about the Palacio de Gobierno (Government Palace), the Cathedral, the Palacio Arzobispal (Archbishop's Palace) and the Palacio Municipal (City Hall). Afterwards we will visit the San Francisco Convent, only a two block walk
from the Plaza Mayor.
San Francisco, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is the largest complex of monumental colonial art in the Americas. It has a basilica with 21 altars, a cloistered convent, Capitular and Clementine Rooms, an inner courtyard decorated with XVI century glazed tiles from Seville, Moorish arches, and subterranean catacombs. The tour also includes: the Olivar (Olive grove) of San Isidro, Miraflores' Parque Central and Parque del Amor (Central and Love Parks), lunch at Mangos restaurant in LarcoMar Shopping Center.


PACHACAMAC
US$ 36

After breakfast, we take a 45-minute drive to the ancient pre-Columbian Pachacamac Pilgrimage Centre overlooking the fertile Valley of Lurin and the Pacific Ocean. Built around 700 AD, as a temple for worshipping the Sun God, the complex is mostly constructed from mud bricks or adobe.

The Temple housed an oracle and is considered as one of the Main Ceremonial Centres of pre-Hispanic Peru. Pilgrims flocked here from far and wide to worship Pachacamac, believed to be the Creator of the World and all of its creatures. The best preserved area is the Inca-built section (1440-1533).
The Archaeological site includes palaces, plazas and temples, that have been recently restored, and an on-site Museum housing interesting pre-Hispanic relics. Free time for lunch near Pachacamac ruins. Afternoon, return to your selected hotel for overnight.
