Hi, glad to meet you, my name is Alfredo R. . I am from Lima city, I live there and I work as a Licensed Tour Guide by the peruvian Ministry of Tourism (initials in spanish MINCETUR) for over 17 years. I am a Transfer Person, Tour Conductor and Tour Leader as well. Finishing my studies in a local institute, I worked as Tour Guide in Lima city when I received some offers for working as Guide, Transporter and Tour Conductor out from my city: Puno, Cusco cities and Bolivia (Southern highlands) and after Chiclayo, Trujillo, Chachapoyas, Cajamarca and Piura cities (Northern coast and highlands). Thanks to my experience, sometimes I am a Tour Advisor making tour programs and I can guide in different places talking about many themes. Hope to meet you in Lima!

Coming back we see a Mansion of one of the oldest families of the whole country. 

In the Main Square, the place where Francisco Pizarro founded the capital of Perú, The Cathedral, Presidential Palace, City Hall and other buildings you will see there. 

Then we will visit the old Train Station. In our visit you'll see one of the nicest streets of the country. 
After, we go to San Francisco, the most visited church in the city. In surroundings you can buy the Lima churros. 

Our tour continues taking a look around the old financial area of the country and the longest and nicest colonial balcony of the whole continent.

Alfredo did not cancel and did the tour even if I was the only one. He is super professional and knows all the details about Lima. I recommend this tour to everyone.

Not as visited as other parts of Lima, I am glad I went on this tour to see a little bit more of more familiar day to day life of people in Lima. I chose the Chinatown route at the end and I am glad I did.
