Excellent private tour today with Yoced - he was such a fantastic guide and really tailored the experience to our preferences. 5 stars!
Impressive. The best tour we have done to date. Thanks to ARTURO for giving us a spectacular afternoon.
Arturo was an excellent guide. We had an amazing time .
My favorite part was undoubtedly the museum and the catacombs; Paul filled us with interesting facts and answered all our questions. The center of Lima during the week is very lively. The only thing is that I would have liked to do the tour a little earlier to have more light at the end of the route, but overall it was very fun.
Excellent experience. I want to highlight the work of the guide. Very good job, highly recommended.
My wife and I visited Lima for the first time, and we booked this tour to try it out. We met Arturo, who was very communicative and knowledgeable, and he was also very kind and answered all of our questions patiently. We learned a lot about the city and gained more insights to help us have the best experience. Make sure you tour with Arturo!
We had the tour with Arturo; he was very kind... highly recommended!!! We hope you always win guide of the month.
I had a great experience with Arturo! He was very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. He was happy to answer all my questions and I felt like the tour was the perfect length to both learn a lot but not feel overwhelmed or rushed.
If you are visiting Lima, Peru, you have to book a tour with Arturo. He is incredibly knowledgeable about the country's history and geography and gave brilliant explanations at every single stop. He was also incredibly patient and took the time to answer all of my questions. Beyond his expertise, Arturo is incredibly kind—he even went the extra mile and carried my bags. His thoughtfulness and passion made this tour the absolute highlight of my trip to Lima. If you are looking for a top-tier guide, ask for Arturo! Outstanding service from an amazing guide!
Wow! Lima experience did an excellent job depositing great memories! Our tour guide Yoced had great skills in providing info, navigating the streets on foot, and throwing in his comedic character. There was no way our group of six would have been able to see all the sights, taste all the food/drinks, or got all the info without his help. Further, he was well known on the streets and in the business, having a magical way of having food / drink prepared at all the locations we arrived at. Simply amazing! On a side note, Experience Lima also helped us significantly with last minute transportation requests.
