Caral Day Trip from Lima with Guide and Entry
From €112 per person
See availability →A Caral day trip from Lima takes you to the oldest known civilization in the Americas, with hotel pickup, a guide, site entry and snacks included.
A Caral day trip from Lima is a long but straightforward way to reach the archaeological site known as the cradle of civilization in the Americas, without arranging transport yourself. A modern air-conditioned vehicle with a professional driver collects you and brings you back, and the whole outing lasts about twelve hours.
Pickup is offered from several areas of the capital, so you can start from the district where you are staying:
- Miraflores, one of the liveliest districts of the city
- San Isidro, the business and financial hub
- Barranco, known for its bohemian atmosphere
- Areas around Jorge Chavez International Airport, useful if you arrive or leave that day
At Caral a live guide leads the visit, and entry to the site is already part of the tour, so there is nothing to buy at the gate. Snacks are included as well, while meals, souvenirs and tips (optional) are paid on your own.
The tour suits anyone curious about ancient history who prefers a ready-made day out to public transport. It is not suitable for people over 95 years.
