During this half day... - During this half day tour, we stopped at quite a few sites, but the highlight of course was visiting the catacombs! María, our guide, was a fountain of knowledge about Lima. She explained so much about the history of the city and the different buildings, but didn’t overwhelm us and presented it in a way that it was memorable. At the end of the tour, she recommended a local vegetarian restaurant that we never would have found on our own. This is a great way to see the city and see a few attractions.

Five Stars for Vista Adventures – The Best in Lima! - I can’t recommend Vista Adventures enough! We ended up booking three different tours with them because each one was so well organized and enjoyable. They were incredibly accommodating, especially considering we had little ones with us. Whether it was the city tour or our trip to Paracas, the guide was always sweet, patient, and impressively knowledgeable. What really stood out was the private tour experience — having our own van made everything smoother and more comfortable. On one of the full-day tours, lunch was included and it was delicious, a thoughtful touch that made the day even better. Their WhatsApp responsiveness was excellent. I was able to arrange our last tours quickly and easily, and they were always clear, efficient, and helpful. Vista Adventures will definitely be my go-to for any future trips in Peru. Thank you for making our time in Lima so memorable!

Accommodating and Informative - Our Tour Guide Sophie was informative and accommodating. The driver was good and coordinated well with Sophie. We were picked up at the Lima airport at 9am and pick up communication was effective. We then went on our tour and then were dropped of at our hotel. We appreciate the historical and local insights Sophie provided.

Highly recommend - Sophia did a very good job showing us around Lima. The van was nice and Victor was a contentious driver in a country full of insane drivers. I recommend this company.

Our experience started an... - Our experience started an hour late (my fault) and we got stuck in the City Center due to an accident. We only did 1/3 of the tour. It took 2.5 hours to get to the airport.

Tour of 4 hours became 3 - Friendly and knowledgeable staff, departure moved from 2 pm to 3 pm for a marathon in the morning that congested traffic by delaying the end of the morning tour. We agreed to the move, hoping for a delayed end. End of the tour at 6:12 pm, about 4 hours were scheduled and became 3 hours and 12 minutes. A reduction without price reduction. Not acceptable.
