Great informative guide Mayrol , quite the collection of gold , weapons and anthropological items . Good addition to Peru’s many gems . The museum could use better item labeling and identification if you go without a knowledgeable tour guide .

Excellent experience with Vipac Travel the Lima provider. Not good experience with Tripadvisor, Tripadvisor has to improve customer communication. The provider picked us and returned us to the hotel via private transportation. The guide was a TRUE bilingual tour guide. He explained surrounding locations while traveling to/from the museum, and was knowledgeable of the gold collection. I would have liked more history on the arms part of the tour. The museum is fascinating on its gold & arms collection, breathtaking. It was a good PRIVATE tour experience.

The museum was very interesting. We took our time and look at all the fascinating items. Smaller kids would probably find it boring, but our teens were intrigued.

Visitamos o Museo del oro, com a guia Gladys, muito simpatica e falando portugues. A colecao de peças de ouro, prata, cobre, ceramica de civilizações pre inca e tambem dos incas é impressionante, pela quantidade, pela riqueza, beleza e pelos detalhes que contam toda uma historia das civilizacoes peruanas. Alem de mumias e restos mortais de chefes de tribos e outros. É um passeio que vale demais a pena, custa 30,00 o ingresso. As armas do mundo tambem é uma incrivel coleção. Tem de todo tipo, tamanho com uma variedade que vai de uma faca da terceira dinastia chinesa ate revolver de Hitler, que pertenceram a diversas personalidades desde soldados, exercitos, politicos, reis, etc. Simplesmente Fantastico. Em 2 horas voce nao consegue ver tudo o que tem la. Foi o ultimo lugar que visitei antes de vir embora. Ainda bem que nao desisti de convencer a familia a ir lá.

O Museo do Oro é imperdível. Embora esteja quase que esquecido, vale a pena conhecer. São centenas de peças em ouro de diversos locais do Perú e de diversas culturas precolombinas. Além disto, temos o Museo de Armas. São armas do período colonial de de ocupação que nos demonstram o poderio europeu, dominador da fundição, contra os povos locais, que só tinham armas fabricadas de pedras e madeira. Mujica Gallo foi um grande homem por colecionar estas milhares de peças.
