Lima Holidays

Capital of Peru, Lima is the largest city in the country and abuts the Pacific Ocean. The heart of the city retains a colonial centre and the architecture, museums and churches are some of the finest in the region. Visit Plaza Mayor, the original site on which Lima was founded by the Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro in 1535, the historic cathedral, grand Presidential Palace and church of San Francisco which houses a series of elegant paintings and frescoes. For those interested in Peruvian history the Archaeological Museum has excellent exhibitions on both Peru’s early civilizations and the Incas whilst the Gold Museum houses a large private collection of weapons, jewellery, costumes and Inca mummies. Lima has excellent air connections throughout the country including to Cusco and Arequipa. All of our holidays and tours to Peru are unique and fully personalised.
