Catch your breath after your intercontinental flight with a comfortable
stay in Lima’s convenient, seaside Miraflores neighborhood. There is plenty of
time for independent exploration of South America’s only ocean facing capital
city. We’ve included a morning guided exploration of some of Lima’s most
interesting sites. After an included lunch at one of Lima’s best known
restaurants, it’s off to the Larco Museum. The museum’s remarkable chronological
galleries provide an excellent overview of 3,000 years of Peruvian pre-Columbian
history. Located in a unique vice-royal mansion of the 18th century, built over
a 7th-century pyramid, the museum is surrounded by beautiful gardens. The Larco
Museum is one of the few museums in the world where visitors can also choose to
enter the storage area with its 45,000 classified archaeological objects.

luggage is delayed, fill in a PIR form before leaving the customs area – VBT
representatives are not allowed into the customs area. Also make certain that
your VBT luggage tags are affixed to your bag so your VBT representative can
identify you. After exiting customs, enter the arrivals hall and look for your
VBT representative, who will be holding a VBT sign and will make arrangements
for your transfer via van to your Lima hotel. (Transfer time is approximately
30 minutes depending on traffic). Your VBT representative will also confirm
your transfer time for your flight to Cusco at the conclusion of your Lima extension
and the pick-up time for your included Lima Larco Museum visit and city tour.
