Do this tour if you want to get off the beaten path, but still enjoy the comfort and convenience of a larger tour. Mario took us to a local fish market in Chorillos, up to Morro Solar for spectacular views, and to Baranco for a pleasant walk. We wanted to try chicharron, so we went to a tiny restaurant (La Chinita) which specializes in that dish. Excellent! Then we went to the historical city center and walked around Mercado Central: an amazing array of meats, fruits, cheeses, clothing. Also we toured Chinatown and walked by some of the government buildings and cathedrals around the main square. Mario was a wealth of information. He talked of history, government, politics, culture, and even knew birds and trees. We went from place to place in a comfortable van driven by the unflappable Renee. A most excellent day!
Wonderful full day tour

We spent all day with David and Jorge today as they took us in and around Lima. Our experience far exceeded our expectations, and we are so grateful for the opportunity. This was VIP treatment from two local, educated, and clearly passionate men that have a lot of knowledge and pride for their beautiful city. This experience was worth the cost, and we would highly recommend this private tour to anyone considering it. Thank you David & George, we enjoyed our day with you so very much!
