About your tour

This is a UNIQUE anthropologist experience, you will have the opportunity to be part of the daily activities of locals that live in the real Lima, it is a rich cultural experience you will always remember!

On this walking tour you will get the opportunity to see how a large majority of Lima's population truly lives in happiness ambience and community system. We want you to see 'the real' Lima.
While you slowly make your way to the base of the hill, we will talk about the community and its developments, the urbanisation projects, politics, religion, and how our group helps in the area. Gradually, you will begin your journey up the famous "yellow stairs", pause for a few pictures of the amazing views in greater Lima, get a glimpse into homes, and interact with neighbours and families we meet during this local life experience.
During the tour, we will also visit a local daycare center and the friendly families from this nice community. The town's huge dimensions and breathtaking views are impressive for any visitor. Remember this tour is about to know people, who will share with you their culture, traditions, beliefs, and thoughts.
Other things to note
If we can visit the Shantytown communities is because we have asked permission from the local leaders (they are 18 leaders and 15 of them are women, our Shanty tows are run by women).
