Tour description

🏳️‍🌈🍉 TOUR DESCRIPTION


Experience Lima’s Historic Center as a time-travel walk - from its pre-Inka roots, through the colonial time, great architecture and stories, to the birth of the Republic. We’ll wander through the city’s most important squares, monuments, and streets with professional guides and storytellers.


We make every minute count. No forced stops, no commission hunts, no souvenir traps. This is a real walking tour, focused on stories, context, and the city itself.

Maybe we pause for a quick churro along the way, it’s about 1 USD and totally worth it.

This is a small-scale, high-impact experience. "Small groups, big stories."


✨ We suggest a fair basic tip of 60 soles per person. Tips are based according to your personal level of satisfaction.


1. All of us - the tour guides - are locals and professionals with 3 to 5 years of education at University.


2. 50% of your tip goes to the guide, and the other 50% to the company (Lima Destroy Tours), the agency will cover the GuruWalk platform fee per person and other logistical expenses. Remember that here guides have no salary.


3. We never cancel tours for a matter of group size, even if there’s only one person booked, that's why we would love that you do the review.


However, if we ever cancel, it is really because we couldn't make it, and we will prove it if you ask for.


3. Thing we DON'T do


We do not take you to or recommend tourist traps or museum-stores that you could easily visit on your own.


We do not accept massive groups. We prioritize quality, real connection, and transparency over numbers.


Too good to be true?

✨ If you’re not attending the tour, please cancel your booking as soon as possible.

* This tour is meant to be a happy, easygoing introduction, just the tip of the iceberg ;)

If you’re looking for more depth and a more critical perspective, I also run paid tours.
