Good Tour for a Short Trip - The tour was a great way to see the important parts of Centro Historico from Miraflores. The pickup service helped a lot to see the city on a relatively short trip to Lima. It was made extra special due to a well timed arrival for the Presidential Palace changing of the guard which in Peru is quite the spectacle. The tour also provides a good opportunity to try a couple of local drinks if you wish to pay the few soles required. Stefano was an excellent guide, knowledgeable, patient and helpful as well as obviously passionate about the history of his country and Pisco Sours.
