Tour Overview

Visit Parque del Amor (Love Park), which is located in Malecon Cisneros in Miraflores and was inaugurated in February 1993 on the "Day of Love," with the stunning sculpture "The Kiss" carved by Peruvian artist Victor Delfin in the center. A beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean may also be had from the park. Then head to the centre of Miraflores for a panoramic view of Huaca Pucllana's ancient site. After that, you'll head to Lima's historic center. Admire the Plaza Mayor, which features notable architectural landmarks and buildings such as the Archbishop of Lima, the Government Palace, and the Plaza Mayor's spectacular bronze fountain, which dates from 1650.

Continue to the San Francisco Convent, a colonial architectural marvel where you can admire the splendor of its monastic cloisters covered with tiles and amazing paintings commemorating the life of the Order's heroic founder, St. Francisco de Asis. Impressive catacombs may be found in the underground galleries, the function of which, according to popular legend, remains a mystery. After that, you'll have lunch (not included) at a local restaurant before heading to the Pueblo Libre district to see the Larco Herrera Museum. Here you may see a large collection of pre-Columbian ceramics and textiles made with a variety of materials and tools employed by the ancient Peruvians, as well as gold and silver items set with semiprecious stones and sexual art.
