This tour allows you to discover three faces of Lima in a single experience: modern Lima facing the Pacific, the pre-Hispanic legacy with the panoramic view of Huaca Pucllana, and the colonial history of the Historic Center. Unlike a conventional city tour, the tour culminates underground with entry into the Catacombs of San Francisco, adding a historical and different experience to the traditional city tour.
