day 1Join trip in Lima
Our trip starts today in Lima, Peru's capital, which was founded in 1535 AD by the Spanish conquistador Francisco Pizarro. The modern cosmopolitan city is littered with reminders of its colonial and pre-Hispanic past, particularly in the historical centre. Located on the shores of the Pacific Ocean, you can easily escape the busy traffic of the city for a little calm on nearby coastal walking paths.
For those arriving in time, our tour leader plans to meet you in the hotel reception at 7.30pm for a welcome meeting and for those that wish, there'll be the chance to go out for dinner. There are no other activities planned today, so you're free to arrive in Lima at any time. A transfer from Lima's Jorge Chavez International Airport (LIM) to the named start hotel is included on all trips in our Upgraded range regardless of your arrival day, provided that we receive your flight details at no later than 10 days prior to departure. The airport is approximately a one-hour drive from our hotel. Should you miss the welcome meeting, your tour leader will inform you of any essential information as soon as you catch up.
If your flight arrives earlier in the day, you might like to take an independent stroll along the coastal path through Miraflores. Alternatively, visit the extensive Larco Museum for an introduction to Peru's ancient history.
