Guide was knowledgeable, but the experience with Pacifica upsetting from the get-go since ours was a private tour, and we paid for that and we were picked and grouped in a bus with 12 other tourists. Not what was sold and presented to us. The same happened with Pacifica in Cusco in the transportation to the airport for the trip to Lima. A very friendly and knowledgeable host, but we were sold a private transport and ended up grouped with 2 other tourists in the vehicle. We made a month long trip from: Argentina-Bolivia-Peru and the only provider that did this (sell private when it was not) was Pacifica in Cusco and Lima.

Gabriel is an experience and excellent tour guy we met, calm and easy, explain all the details in the historic places we visited. Speak good English and communicated well. If we have a chance to visit Lima, Gabriel is the excellent choice and made our day. Thank you Gabriel

I actually booked this for my parents and they had a great time. They said they're guide was super friendly and she was very knowledgeable. They also thought it was the perfect amount of time and did not feel rushed at all. Thank you!

I really enjoyed my half day tour of Lima. Ben is a good driver and Victor is a great guide. He speaks perfect English.I learned a lot about the history of the city and the tour ended with a great view of the Pacific Ocean. Thoroughly recommended!

Our tour guide Gabriel was outstanding on his knowledge of Lima and Peru history and social cultures. We had a wonderful time in this tour with his insights at all of our site visits.,Gabriel’s English is very good and he is a real student of Peruvian history but also linking these events with current day world interactions impacting Peru. One of the most informative tours we have experienced.
