Hi, glad to meet you, my name is Alfredo R. , I am from Lima City, I live there and I work as a Licensed Tour Guide, Transfer Person and Tour Conductor for over 18 years. Finishing my studies in a local institute, I worked as Tour Guide in Lima city when I received some offers for working as Guide, Transfer Person and Tour Conductor out from my city: Puno, Cusco cities (peruvian Southern highlands) and Bolivia, and then, Chiclayo, Trujillo, Chachapoyas, Cajamarca and Piura cities (peruvian Northern coast and highlands). Thanks to my experience, sometimes I am a Tour Advisor making tour programs and I can guide in different places talking about many themes. I have the costume to take objects to the tours to make you feel the peruvian History of the ancient cultures. Hope to meet you in Lima! *OFFICIAL GUIDE OF TOURISM - Credential by MINCETUR (peruvian Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism) *OFFICIAL GUIDE OF TOURISM professional career - CEPEA Private Institute - Lima City *HISTORY-ANTHROPOLOGY-SOCIOLOGY free courses - NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF HIGH PLATEAU - Puno City *ENGLISH LANGUAGE - CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY Language Center - Lima City *PORTUGESE LANGUAGE - NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF HIGH PLATEAU Language Center - Puno City NO RESTRICTIONS

Our driver, Jorge, was waiting for us once we cleared customs and gratefully brought us straight to our hotel to refresh after our flight. We joined our guide, Alberto, for an excellent tour of the communities of Miraflores and San Isidro before an extensive tour of the historic center of Lima. We toured many fabulous sites in a combination of driving tour and walking tour that seemed to strike the perfect balance. Alberto was always very sensitive to our interests and safety, ensuring the pacing was comfortable for us at every stop. As a guide, Alberto has a vast knowledge of Peru's history and culture and shared many fascinating details throughout the day. Respectful and concerned, our safety and personal satisfaction were always his focus. This is an excellent tour for those arriving into the Lima airport and looking for a full day tour that describes and highlights Lima from multiple angles and perspectives. Great tour!

Alberto was an excellent tour guide, knowledgeable, friendly and eager to show us everything of interest. There was a bit of an issue at the start of the tour as we had asked for it to be customised to include 4 people rather than two but Alberto only expected two of us. This was quickly sorted out with the minimum of fuss and no loss of time and a larger vehicle was organised. We had a great day and a very interesting tour. I would fully recommend booking Alberto for your tour in Lima.

My wife and I had a 12 hour layover in Lima, so we decided to tour the city. Alfredo and his driver picked us up at the airport and dropped us back off after the tour. It was awesome! Alfredo knows the city and its history as well as that of Peru. At the end we told him it exceeded our expectations. We had a wonderful time, saw and learned a lot about the Lima area, and would highly recommend Alfredo to other travelers!

My son and I engaged Alfredo for an all day tour of Lima on May 28, 2024. Alfredo and his driver picked us up at the Lima airport on time and proceeded to give us an outstanding tour of Lima that included the historical city center as well as beautiful areas outside the city including Miraflores and Barranco. We ended the day touring the Magic Water Circuit and watching the Magic Fountain show. After a full day Alfredo and his driver returned us to the airport for our overnight flight back to the States. Alfredo is a terrific guide who put together a very full itinerary of places and sites to see. Alfredo is extremely knowledgeable in Peruvian history which my son and I found very interesting. Alfredo's english is very good. I would highly recommend other's looking for a tour of Lima give strong consideration to using Alfredo.
