Fantastic Experience at the Larco Museum

We had a great time visiting the Larco Museum with Jimmy. He was knowledgeable, engaging, and made the history come alive in a very easy-to-understand way. The tour gave us a great introduction to the pre-Inca and Inca cultures, which helped us appreciate our time later in Cusco and the Sacred Valley even more. We had eight guides during our trip around Peru, and Jimmy was definitely one of our favorites. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful tour. Our tour guide was so knowledgeable. She was able to bring the history of the ceramics and other artifacts to life. We never would have learned so much about the stories behind the artifacts without hearing about it. Just reading the info the museum provided was not enough to tell learn about the meanings behind the objects.
Take Much More Away From Your Visit

Pamela was an incredible guide. While the Larco Museum is on the smaller side, there is still so much to take in. Without a guide, it would perhaps be able to glaze over after seeing so many works. Pamela was able to take us through each portion of the museum at the perfect pace: making sure we had enough time in each room, yet moving us along so we had the energy to get through everything. The rich context she was able to bring to what we were saying completely changed our experience. Highly recommend.
