    I was a little hesitant to find out I was the only one on the tour (being a solo female traveller) getting into a mini bus with two men but my nerves were soon put to rest as Mayrol introduced himself and began talking about the area surrounding my hostel where they picked me up. The sights themselves were beautiful and well worth the visit. Mayrol is very knowledgeable and knew so much about Peruvian history and the Spanish colonisation - I could ask any silly question and he would provide a very informative answer - it was a fantastic experience and I learnt so much in such a short time! He also let me adjust the tour to see the catacombs as well as making a slight detour to try some traditional Peruvian churros! The driver Mauricio drove with great care, I normally get car sick, but I didn't with his driving! Highly recommend this tour for those visiting Lima.

    Fantastic tour to get a snap shot of the city in a short period of time, as well as learning generally about the city and country. Mayrol the guide was very knowledgeable, easy to talk to and a great guy.

    Fantastic Tour, really good for just a short city stay to learn about the country, city and to see the most important things. Mayrol the guide really knowledgeable, easy to talk to and a great guy!

    Our guide Victor was awesome. Very friendly and helpful and had immense knowledge on all things, Peru, Lima, and the sites we saw. He's also completely fluent in English if that is a concern. Our driver Mauricio was also very friendly and great driver. The itinerary was diverse and comprehensive, seeing sites from modern society, to Spanish colonial times, all the way back to pre-Incan ruins. If you only have a short amount of time in Lima, this is a must.

    The tour was amazing. Mayrol, our tour guide , very well prepare, and excellent knowledge of Peru’s History. You could ask any question, no matter pre historic, inca civilization, or about the colonization, he will give you the right answer. We really enjoyed having Mayrol with you. We learned a lot. Thank you so much.
