LIMA CITY TOUR WITH MEETING POINT

• Our meeting point will be at Bolivar Hotel and with our expert local guide we will take you to a fascinating Lima city walking tour around our Historical Center.
• During this tour, discover Lima’s fascinating story—from its founding in 1535 to its rise as the “City of Kings”, once the political and cultural heart of the Spanish viceroyalty in South America. As you explore the city, you’ll see some of Lima’s most iconic landmarks, including the majestic Gran Hotel Bolívar and its story-filled surroundings, as well as Plaza San Martín, one of the capital’s most emblematic and lively squares.

• We will continue our walk along Jirón de la Unión, one of the main streets of the historic center, where each building has its own story to tell. We will walk to the Plaza Mayor, the heart of Lima, where you will be able to observe the imposing Government Palace, the Archbishop’s Palace, the majestic Lima Cathedral, and other buildings that have played a crucial role in Peru’s politics and history.

• The historic center of Lima has been considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1991, thanks to its impressive colonial buildings, which allow visitors to relive the city’s colonial era.
• Lima also stands out for being one of the oldest capitals in South America, and as such, it was the most important center for the Spanish Viceroyalty in the entire continent. Throughout this tour, we will explore some palaces that still hold secrets from that time.

• One of the most fascinating points of the visit will be the Monastery of San Francisco, where you can admire its impressive baroque architecture and the mysterious underground catacombs, one of the most intriguing attractions in Lima, offering a unique insight into the colonial history of the city.

• In addition, we cannot fail to include in the tour the House of Peruvian Literature, a historic building that was once a train station and now houses a space dedicated to Peruvian literary culture. From the outside, you can appreciate its elegant architecture and learn a little more about the writers and poets who have left their mark on Peruvian literature.

• Before ending the tour, we will make a final stop at the Church of Santo Domingo, one of the most important temples in Lima, known for its colonial architecture and religious history. Inside, you can admire its impressive artistic details and learn about the influence of the Dominican Order on the religious and cultural life of the city.
