Grand Free Tour Lima: History, Economy & Society
Overview
Itinerary: Trust in the best, trust in freetour.com. We will meet at the scheduled time to explore the narrow streets of the so-called City and approach the Torre de Lima. Then, in front of City Hall, we will discover why this neighborhood has its own mayor and security forces.
We will arrive at the Rímac Bridge to admire how the Rimaq or Limaq River flows through the city. It is one of the most visited monuments! We will continue to the Torre Tagle to discover one of the most special views of the capital. You will fall in love with the views!
Walking through the narrow streets, we will relive the origins of "a spanish city in Lima" and its founder, Francisco Pizarro, and soak up the atmosphere of the area next to the equestrian statue of the knight. The traditional architecture of these streets creates an atmosphere that will transport us back in time.
Finally, we will reach the highest and most unusual point in the city: the hill of the slums of Lima. It houses the emblematic Cross of San Cristóbal.
After 1.5hours exploring Lima, we'll end the free tour.

Things to note
You should think of Lima as a large, contemporary, and commercial city. Never underestimate Lima as a small town, because you never know what the traffic will be like at that time of year. Be disciplined and arrive on time. Walking or getting around in Lima is very easy. Lima is considered the safest city in South America today.
