Only Pachacamac tour, no Barranco
It does not include the 20 min Barranco tour and Humedal Pantanos de Villa pass by. It went straight to Pachacamac. The tour guide however was excellent.

Thank you Roxana
Pachacamac was very interesting and our guide, Roxana definitely added to the experience. She was so knowledgeable about the different cultures represented at the site. I came away with a deeper understanding of the history of ancient Peru.

No one ever picked me up!
I was waiting before time until 30 minutes later no one showed up. They never responded to my messages.

Huge Archeological Site
Amazing archeological site that was so much bigger than expected. Museum was great too. Caesar was an excellent tour guide.

Bad
Booked the tour in the morning for the same day. After waiting 30min for the bus, I called the agency. They said I booked too late. Why is it then possible to book, if it is not available (either fault of the agency or the Tripadvisor platform)???
J
just ok
this was somewhat interesting if you have the time but so many better things if you don't. Pretty deep dive into older history of Peru.

Highly recommend! Great tour guides!
We had a great tour with Lima VIP Tours, they picked us up on time at our hotel, their van had air conditioning and our tour guide Felipe sure has a lot of knowledge of the History of Pachacamac and other stories of beautiful Peru! We were very happy with their guide and we laughed a lot and learned a lot in half day 😊 we will never forget Lima VIP Tours for their wonderful hospitality at all times. We will surely book with them for a next time. We won't forget Felipe, Paul and wonderful driver Jorge.

Four Hours in Pachacamac
We had a wonderful time with Renzo the tour guide and Michael the SUV driver. Renzo's knowledge of the history of Peru, and of the archeological discoveries, were very impressive. He was also able to speak to me in my native English, and to my wife in her native Portuguese very well! We were picked up at the alloted time from our hotel, and dropped off, again at the alloted time, at a restaurant of our choice in Miraflores, not bad considering the terrible traffic we encountered on the way there and back! I would highly recommend this tour
