Only Pachacamac tour, no Barranco
It does not include the 20 min Barranco tour and Humedal Pantanos de Villa pass by. It went straight to Pachacamac. The tour guide however was excellent.

Thank you Roxana
Pachacamac was very interesting and our guide, Roxana definitely added to the experience. She was so knowledgeable about the different cultures represented at the site. I came away with a deeper understanding of the history of ancient Peru.

No one ever picked me up!
I was waiting before time until 30 minutes later no one showed up. They never responded to my messages.

Huge Archeological Site
Amazing archeological site that was so much bigger than expected. Museum was great too. Caesar was an excellent tour guide.

Bad
Booked the tour in the morning for the same day. After waiting 30min for the bus, I called the agency. They said I booked too late. Why is it then possible to book, if it is not available (either fault of the agency or the Tripadvisor platform)???

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Half-day Pachacamac Temple Tour from Lima: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lima.
How much does Half-day Pachacamac Temple Tour from Lima 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 Half-day Pachacamac Temple Tour from Lima take?
+
Plan for about 4 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 Half-day Pachacamac Temple Tour from Lima worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.3/5 across 17 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 Half-day Pachacamac Temple Tour from Lima?
+
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 Half-day Pachacamac Temple Tour from Lima suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Half-day Pachacamac Temple Tour from Lima?
+
Around 6 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Half-day Pachacamac Temple Tour from Lima 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 Paracas & Huacachina Premium Experience from Lima, Day Tour From Lima: Paracas, Huacachina, Pisco Vineyard & Sunset, Premium Paracas & Huacachina Day Trip from Lima with Sunset Toast. 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.
