5.00The tour was ideal, better than expected. Paul explained every detail of every place we visited. He had all our questions answered and shared quality information. Besides, he made us very good pictures. I recommend it 100%!! We had a great time.

5.00Squeezed this tour in last-minute while on a work trip. I had 2 hours maximum so when I arrived I talked to my guide (Paul) and we prioritized based on my schedule. Fortunately I was the only participant, so it was easy. It was booked as an English-tour, but I’m a native Spanish-speaker, so I just asked Paul to speak Spanish. I felt more connected to the experience having the history portion recounted that way. Once I confirmed my pick up time a location based on my schedule, Paul walked me to my stop and I tipped fairly well for his patience and flexibility. We truly adjusted things on the fly, and it ended up being everything I wanted. Regarding pictures—I only took a few. I just wanted to be immersed in the storytelling without trying to manage a photoshoot.
Best tour in Lima

5.00Paul was excellent. I was the only one who showed up to the walking tour, but Paul still took the tour and gave me a private tour of the city. He is extremely knowledgeable and an expert tour guide. One of the best tour guides I’ve met. Thanks Paul! Luke

5.00Beautiful visit; very interesting both the church and the catacombs (we also experienced the thrill of an earthquake 6.1 while we were underground!!)
I recommend!

5.00Paul was an excellent guide to my family. I have two teenage children and he managed to keep their attention with the stories of Lima and the walks through the center. Besides being a great photographer! I recommend.
Book Paul’s tour!

5.00Paul guided us all around the historic areas of Lima. We visited beautiful churches, the impressive Plaza de Armas, we saw the Lima River and the neighborhood on the other side of the river. He showed us the old train station that is now a literature center and the Parque de Murallas. We finished at the Catacombs of the Domincan Church and Monastery. These catacombs were really fascinating and Paul shared many insights that you would not get if you toured it on your own. We highly recommend this tour with Paul!
