Free Walking Tour Historic Center of Lima From Miraflores

Free Tour of Lima's Historic Center: History and Culture

At the agreed time, we will meet at the meeting point of your choice:

• Miraflores (Meeting Point – No Tour): 9:00 AM | 10:15 AM | 3:30 PM
• Downtown Lima (Tour Start): 10:00 AM | 11:20 AM | 4:20 PM

If you're in Miraflores , our team will help you get around like a local using the Metropolitano, a fast and affordable bus (S/3.20 or $1) . However, this transportation is often very crowded and may take longer than expected to board. If you prefer more convenience, you can go directly to the second meeting point in downtown Lima, where the tour will begin.

If you decide to take a taxi or private transportation, the approximate cost from Miraflores to the center is S/40 – S/50 ($12 – $15).

What will you discover on this tour?

We start at Plaza San Martín , one of Lima's most emblematic spaces, and walk along the historic Jirón de la Unión towards Plaza de Armas .

From there, we will have a panoramic view of the imposing Lima Cathedral , the Government Palace , the Municipal Palace and other colonial icons that surround the heart of the historic center.

We'll continue to Santo Domingo Church , famous for housing the remains of Saint Rose and Saint Martin de Porres, and then on to the House of Peruvian Literature , located in a former train station. We'll end with an exterior view of the Church and Convent of San Francisco , famous for its architecture and catacombs (not included in this tour).

📲 The day before the tour, we'll send you the guide's name and contact information via WhatsApp.
❗ If you cannot attend, please let us know in advance so as not to affect the group.

Join us for a journey through Lima's colonial past on a tour filled with history, culture, and unforgettable views. We look forward to seeing you!
