🕍 Colonial Lima – A Walk Through Time
Your adventure begins in the Historic Centre of Lima, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the birthplace of the Peruvian capital.
Here, every building and square tells a story — from colonial power to modern pride.
You’ll explore the Plaza Mayor, surrounded by architectural icons such as the Government Palace, the Municipal Palace, and the majestic Cathedral of Lima. The city’s colonial elegance and cobblestone streets make it a living museum under the open sky.
During the visit, enjoy a stop at a traditional handicraft shop, where Peruvian artisans showcase colorful creations.
Then, raise a glass of the country’s signature cocktail — the Pisco Sour — and toast to Lima’s rich culture and spirit.

🏺 Huaca Huallamarca – The Ancient Pyramid of Lima
Before heading to the coast, step back even further in time at the Huaca Huallamarca, located in the elegant district of San Isidro.
This pre-Inca pyramid, built around the 4th century A.D., stands as a reminder that Lima’s history began long before the Spanish arrived.
