It was a truly perfect day trip. My guide Jordan was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and patient. He explained the history of the site very clearly in good English, and kept me informed of what to expect with different parts of the trip. The complex was enormous and very intriguing with an interesting and modern museum.

Jordan and Manuel were friendly and excellent. Jordan tried to tell as much as possible about Peru for me, a beginner traveler here. He is knowledgeable enough in what he has to do. Thank you very much for giving the nice first expression of Lima, Peru. FYI, no place to hide from the sun during the tour except in a car, so prepare to avoid UV rays.

Went to Pachacamac with Jordan, our guide. It was fantastic! Just outside Lima, this incredible archaeological site is a must do and I recommend Kultour 100% - Jordan provided commentary on the history, geography, mythology and customs of Peru from then until now throughout the day. We were 3 people and had lots of fun. The route is beautiful and a nice breeze while walking so not as hot as I expected. Thanks Jordan and team.
