EXCELLENTBased on 2193 reviewsVerifiedAboutMyTravel2024-11-02Amazing tour because of our guide! I had an amazing time on this tour! Cesar was our guide and he was absolutely fantastic!!!! He went above and beyond to make sure we understood the history of Peru and, since I was celebrating my birthday, he was recommended so incredible places to go that turned out great. You absolutely want Caesar as your guide!VerifiedJupiterOEK2024-11-02Excellent City Tour with Excellent Guide The perfect introduction to Lima with the perfect Guide and Driver! Our guide, Cesar, was professional, knowledgeable, humorous and helpful. He knew the City history, could address our questions, introduced us to local foods, kept everything fun and interesting, and made recommendations for later. We chose the option to be picked up and dropped from the hotel. Wow, that definitely made our life easier given the crazy traffic throughout Lima. Our driver, Isait, was great and the van new and comfortable. Cesar and Isait made a great team and a very enjoyable tour. Thank you both and we hope to tour with you on our next trip to Lima.VerifiedWinona2024-10-31Gurgling and Giggling Book With Haku=Take Care You!As a party of 3 I had a pain in my stomach threatening to ruin my tour, and potentially my day. Our guide Gabi made it clear from second one she was with us to not only introduce us to all that makes her proud but also to make sure we were cared for. Driver Esayid was kind, also very caring as he drove me back to our hotel. Shortly after Gabi contacted me to see if I felt ok to join in again which I did! Woohoo! Gabi is beyond knowledgeable and such a sweet woman with a great work ethic, a real testament to the ownership/management of Haku. Esayid maneuvered throughout with skill and calmness. I would have used bad words at the wheel! Our day was perfect in every way, not just because Gabi was quick to point out available bathrooms to me 😀but because she loves to share her country. Don’t hesitate to book with Haku Tours, they’ll have your back and give their heart.VerifiedMeli2024-10-31Pick up n drop off Lima Airport Booked online from USA to pick up at Lima airport to a hotel in Lima. The driver hold my name and took us to our hotel safe and sound. The language barrier was not an issue, a friendly driver with smile (sorry forget your name). Later, we booked another pick up hotel and drop off while in Lima. Haku organized it well and very professional and honor price discount we applied for our first reservation. Thank you and recommend Haku Tour for Lima Pick Up and Drop Off service.Verifiedbrojohnv2024-10-315 star review Caesar and Jose were quite a team. Jose what driving skills and keeping us safe and accommodating all our varied drop offs professionally.What can we say about CAESAR!!!!! He made this tour unforgettable from his knowledge, his friendly manner….. and his personality. He added so much more to our tour. We both felt that we learned so much about Lima and Peruvian history culture and the food. 5 star review.VerifiedStacey D2024-10-31Perfect way to experience Lima I would highly recommend this tour. I only had one day in Lima and this tour was perfect way to experience so much of Lima and learn a lot of the history of the city. I also tried a lot of the local delicacies. Our guide Cesar was amazing and even provided tips on what to do in my next stop Cusco. We also had a great driver Julio who was there at every stop. As a solo traveller, I felt very safe.VerifiedTony T2024-10-23Walking tour Lima Great tour with this company. Highly recommend any of there tours. Full of information and passion on Peru. Saul and Miguel compliment eachother and made a good day.VerifiedChichi B2024-10-22More than expected The morning walk at the historic center highlighted buildings and churches with beautiful architectural details and a snack stop of churros. Lunch was hefty at Coffee Brix. The afternoon walk in Chorillos, Miraflores and Barranco featured a cliff jump by Fernando (reenacting El Salto del Fraile), some picarones and pisco and wine-tasting, aside from the sights. Junior was our energetic guide, the perfect guide for a full-day tour. He was ably assisted by drivers Franklin and Luis.VerifiedLynn B2024-10-21This is a unique and cultural experience you'll always remember I would like to thank JJ again for the great afternoon we spent together. We did the Shanty Town tour with JJ. It was something so special that we will never forget.We would do the tour again and again! kind regards from Lynn and Carlos☺️VerifiedAmado D2024-10-19A Wonderful Intro to Lima and Peru A great little overview of Lima - the main sites, a few of the different neighborhoods, and some of the best food for lunch! A great intro to the city.
