Hello, my name is Joan Manuel, I am a native of Callao, the main port of Peru. I have a degree in Tourism Administration from the Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos, Dean of America. I am very passionate about history, both of Peru and of the World. One of my great pleasures is Soccer, both practicing it and enjoying it on television. About 5 years ago I started working as a guide and the truth is that it was the first time that I really enjoyed a job to the fullest. I am grateful to have the luck of being able to work on what I like and enjoy.
Did you that Lima is known as "Lima, the horrible"? But, guess what? We will make you fall in love with this horrible city.
We will treat you like our old friend who came back after a super long time ago travel abroad and we want to show everything!
In approximately 120 minutes, while we visit the most important Monuments, Balconies and streets of Lima Downtown, you will be transported chronologically (as possible) to each period of the past of the Capital of Peru thanks to a storyline structure we've prepared for you in a fun and interactive way to tell you about the evolution of our peruvian society with a critical-philosophical perspective of controversial history and it's intimate relationship with politics.

We will meet at "Plaza San Martin", outside the "Grand Hotel Bolivar", Historical Centre of Lima. UBER: We recommend to all of you who are hosted in Miraflores or Barranco, to take a taxi 40min-50min in advance, because sometimes traffic is awful. Public Transportation: Try the Metropolitano "letter C", and give 3.5 soles (peruvian currency) to a local to make you pass with card. You should take this bus one hour in advance and drop off at Colmena Station, then just walk two blocks. I will be there waiting 5 minutes before.
Free tours do not have a set price, instead, each person gives the guru at the end of the tour the amount that he or she considers appropriate (these usually range from €10 to $50 depending on satisfaction with the tour).
