In the morning you will be picked up by our local guide Susi. She will take you to her favorite market in Lima, in the Surquillo district, within walking distance of your hotel in the Miraflores district. Susi gives you a tour of the market and you get to know, among other things, unique Peruvian fruits such as custard apple, lucuma, aguaymanto and pacay. Of course there is also the possibility to taste.

After visiting the market you will leave with the 'Metropolitano', a specially built bus service between the district of Miraflores and the center to the historic center of Lima Peru. Via Plaza San Martin (where the best homemade ice creams in all of Lima are sold) you walk to Plaza Mayor, the main square in the center. The cathedral and the government palace border this central square. Every day the changing of the guard takes place in front of the government palace at noon. You will also visit the beautiful, bright yellow San Francisco Church just behind the central square. In this baroque style church you can see important coastal works from the colonial era. Rich and poor used to be buried in the underground catacombs and you can still find thousands of skulls and bones.

We always like to drink a cup of coffee between the Peruvians in the restaurant 'el Cordano', you will automatically pass here when you walk from the central square to the San Francisco church. The service in this restaurant consists only of men and a large part of the service consists of (very) elderly men. Susi is happy to take you for a nice lunch in the center of old Lima Peru.

After lunch you and Susi will travel back to your hotel in Lima, Miraflores by public transport.

Tip: It is possible to drive straight to the airport after this excursion. This saves travel time. You do not travel by public transport, but by private transport. You do not return to your hotel after the excursion, you take your large luggage with you immediately. Our driver will take care of your luggage during the excursion.
