A different way to get to know Peru - Enjoy this amazing new experience. I love the history of different countries. But also our guide Patrick has the best vibe when he told us each part of the tour. He changed the tones of his voice and even in a moment, I speak in Quechua to tell how the gods did the rituals. In addition, constant language changes from English to Spanish made it possible for me to interact with people from another country like England. All this made the experience the ultimate.

Fantastic experience - A very interesting tour thanks to our guide Patrick, who knew with enthusiasm, experience and his friendly approach, immersed us in the history of Pachacamac.
An easy tour even for families, without great walks, the bus was comfortable, all on time.
I recommend this tour to everyone, to get up close and personal with not only pre-Inca and Inca culture but also one of the most important archaeological sites in the Lima area.

History and a variety show - The museum tour and glimpse of the pyramids was very interesting. I enjoyed learning the history and getting a better understanding of the people and the culture. The lunch show was my favorite part. They had a pretty decent variety in the buffet. The dance breaks and the horse show was very entertaining. The only complaint was that they have items for sale next to the plates and do not label it as a sale item. It looks like cloth napkins and since it is next to the plates, we grabbed one with the plate. We were informed after use that it we now had to purchase them.

Comprehensive Lima trip - We didn't go for the lunch show, only went for pachacamaq but Manuel showed us around in barranco, which was a nice relaxing time at to end the tour :)
we have been with Manuel our entire Lima trip and he has been attentive and friendly. We have learned a lot about the place from him and you can sense his interests and passion in the history. Highly recommend.

Our experience in Pachacamac. - An excellent tour.
Me and my family were trying to search an experience in Lima about the natives of Peru.
At first we were struggling because the only place that we could find out was the "Huaca Pucllana", but then, we found this tour at 40USD.
In summary: our guide Partrick transfers us to Pachacamac museum and ruins. In the museum he told us the history and showed us the artifacts of these cultures, in the ruins he mostly talked about the architechture and how these old peruvians cultures lived, all of this in a lapse of 1.5 hours.
Good: The historical value of pachacamac, the cost of the tour that it was 40USD, the fact that it was a small group (just two families) and patrick was a very knowledgeable guy in Peruvian history and culture.
Bad: there were just only one problem: you can't enter to the ruins, this was because in the past people of the zone
graffitied the zone.
If you want an experienfe that is more about the historical value and less about breathtaking photos, this is an excellent tour to know about the history of Peru.
Remember: bring a cap and a bottle of water because it is a desertic zone.
