About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- BC-NS_Piper0 contributionsExcellent 3 Day Private Tour of LimaOur family of 4 was on an "Inca Discovery Cruise" in November and we were in Lima for 3 days. I contacted Mabel at Apullay Tours about 2 months before our cruise to ask if she could assist us with organizing a 3 day private tour of Lima for us. Mabel did an excellent job on our itinerary, and we saw and experienced so many things in Lima over our 3 days there. Mabel arranged for a van with our very capable driver, Cirilo, who did an amazing job navigating us through some very narrow streets and heavy traffic. Our guide, Pamela, had excellent English and she was very well qualified as a guide, having completed a 2 year course in tourism management and tour guiding. She provided us with insights into Peru's long history with its indigenous peoples, the Spanish conquest and battles for liberation, as well as contemporary history of Peru. We are grateful to Pamela for providing us with so much knowledge of Peru and its people. Our son has cerebral palsy and we had brough along on our cruise a fold-up wheelchair to get him around the many cobblestone streets on the trip. Cirilo was very helpful with driving us to the most optimal drop-off locations and assisting with the fold-up wheelchair, which was greatly appreciated. Some of the 3-day tour highlights were: - Chorrillos: The Morro Solar - One of the city's highest points with an exceptional view of Lima; - Kennedy Park and Love Park in Minaflores; - Magic Water Park and Laser Show that shows the history of Peru projected onto the water fountain's mist; - Local market tour in Surquillo with a delicious sampling of local Peruvian fruit; - Walk through Barranco, a wonderful artistic / bohemian community and art gallery visit - Delicious Peruvian seafood dinner at Cala, an excellent ocean-side restaurant and a perfect place to view the sunset - Visit to the Gold Museum which is an extensive display of Incan gold artifacts and pottery. Also has a weapons museum on the top floor that was also impressive. - Lunch at El Bolivariano, an authentic Peruvian food experience which was also delicious. It was truly a memorable 3 days in Lima for our family, thanks to the Apullay Tours team. I would highly recommend their tours to anyone wishing to have an exceptional tour of Lima and to make the most of your time there.Written 6 January 2025
- Rustyhack0 contributionsBeautiful.The most heart warming displays of water fountains. The water show was mesmerizing. A must see for sure during the evening hours to fully enjoy the experience.Written 17 December 2024
- sarahtQ6181XD0 contributionsMagical evening of fountains and history!!Pamela was an awesome tour guide!! She provided excellent details about history during the tour. Pick up and drop off was very simple and professional. No waiting in lines. Highly recommended and worth the expense.Written 12 September 2024
- jiyuz20220 contributionsExcellent tourI went a water circuit by light tour in central Lima at 8 PM on April 7,2024, excellent tour guide and driver ! strongly recommend!Written 7 April 2024
- Miiichaa0 contributionsAmazing!!!We couldn‘t miss out on the magic water fountain so we booked a tour with „Get Your Guide“. Luckily we were the only ones signing up and had basically a private tour. Mable from „Apullay Tours“ was a lovely guide and Ernesto was a great driver that picked us up all the way down in Barranco. They drop you off right at the entrance and let you skip the whole queue so there is no waiting involved. Mable gave us a short summary of the film that plays on the waterscreen so you have a good idea what you are about to see. Thanks to her knowledge about the schedule of the park we went directly to the other fountains and had plenty of time to do awesome photos. She has a good idea of posing and made very good pictures of us. She explained a lot about the the culture and made the expiereience unforgettable. It took less than a minute once we left the park and Ernesto was already there to pick us up. They drop you off wherever you want and we had a great time chatting in the car. Mable has great humor and we had a great time driving back to barranco. With some recommendations for bars and restaurants we left the car happy as we could be! Overall an amazing expierience and we would recommend this tour to everybody that visits Lima! Mi cuerpo necesitar moverse!Written 24 November 2023
