About this experience

I belong to a family of artists, most of them musicians. Raul Pereira, my father, was founder and singer of “El Polen” (the Pollen), pioneer musical band in the fusion of Psychedelic Rock with rhythms and sounds of Andean and Peruvian Afro Music. That’s why my interest in innovation in modern music and for the spirit of traditional music, its rhythms, its history and its wonderful range of instruments. Throughout my career, my passion for music has led me to investigate different fields like body percussion, construction of recycled instruments, musical theory and sound ensemble. Fields that I have been developing through practice, participating in artistic and educational projects. In recent years I have been able to be part of a large number of musical projects and bands, such as La Patronal and Viento Paracas.

Wonderful intro to Peruvian percussion!

Excellent experience! Paloma translated perfect instruction from Jesus and included the origins of both the instruments and the African slaves that developed them after their native drums were burned by the S panish in an effort to destroy their culture and replace it with Catholism. Jesus was very patient and detailed as he instructed me on the principal instruments. Great time with wonderful people in a space that is developing into a community resource for emerging artists.

Wonderful Memories

This is an amazing experience to teach about the origin of Afro music. There are many instruments and you will learn to play with a Peruvian music artist. It is phenomenal

OMG My kids had SOOOO much fun

I just did this event on 15 of feb 2020. It was amazing!. I am traveling with 8 children ages 11-15. 7 out of the 8 kids loooved it. The 8th was exhausted and not musically oriented but he was still happy to film his friends. The kids covered so much material in such a short time and were really able to enjoy themselves. A large range of instruments were allowed to be tried. Paloma was positive and reinforcing but knew how to maintain control of the class (kids were easy to get excited and on a tangent). Fiorella, the business partner- was great to deal with. She agreed to come to my airbnb and came at a time that was reasonable for my children. . I have traveled to Peru over 6 times in the past 10 years and this is the top thing in LIma I've had my kids do. . I will be booking it again for our next trip!

Cajòn afro peruano with Paloma Pereira: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lima.

How much does Cajòn afro peruano with Paloma Pereira cost?

+

Prices start at $65 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lima usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

How long does Cajòn afro peruano with Paloma Pereira take?

+

Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lima is not rushed.

Is Cajòn afro peruano with Paloma Pereira worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 53 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lima, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Cajòn afro peruano with Paloma Pereira?

+

Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

Is Cajòn afro peruano with Paloma Pereira suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 15. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 1.5-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Cajòn afro peruano with Paloma Pereira?

+

Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lima can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

What should I bring or wear?

+

Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lima and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Cajòn afro peruano with Paloma Pereira start and how do I get there?

+

The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lima within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

What are the best things to do in Lima?

+

On Outty we rank every Lima experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Day Tour From Lima: Paracas, Huacachina, Pisco Vineyard & Sunset, Premium Paracas & Huacachina Day Trip from Lima with Sunset Toast, Full Paracas & Huacachina Day Trip from Lima: Sunset Experience. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

When is the best time to visit Lima?

+

Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

How many days do you need in Lima?

+

Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

+

Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
