Get acquainted with the historic landmarks of Lima -- the first city in the Americas.
Visit the Main Square, located in the heart of downtown to view the Government Palace, the Town Hall, and the Bishop’s Palace with its beautiful balconies.
Step inside the Cathedral of Lima, whose outstanding features include the choir stalls, the Churrigueresque Chapel of the Immaculate, the main altar and a statue of Christ made of carved ivory. On the right is the crypt with the remains of Conquistador Francisco Pizarro.
A short walk brings you to the Church and Convent of St Francis, considered the most important religious monument in Lima. It was built in 1542 in Baroque style, and consecrated in 1673.
A panoramic drive through Lima passes several colonial squares, churches and mansions; then, you will continue to the more modern districts of San Isidro and Miraflores for a glimpse of life in this huge city. Take note of the beautiful parks, modern buildings and great ocean views.
Your tour ends with a transfer to the airport .
Please note:
Wear comfortable walking shoes. The cathedral is closed on Saturday afternoon and Sundays ; a visit to the Santo Domingo Convent or Casa Aliaga will be substituted. This tour is available only to guests whose cruise ends in Callao, with flights departing after 4:00pm.
