Tour Description


Your exciting ecological adventure commences from our meeting point in the vibrant district of Miraflores. Following a brief safety orientation, we'll embark on the bike path to delve into the diverse districts of Lima.

Our journey includes a panoramic visit to the ancient pre-Inca ruins of Huaca Pucllana, nestled in the heart of the city. This archaeological wonder dates back to the fifth century and showcases a towering adobe pyramid, offering a glimpse into the historic Lima culture.

Next, we will head towards the scenic waterfront promenade to take in the breathtaking views of the Costa Verde. Our ride continues to the bohemian enclave of Barranco, renowned for its stunning ocean vistas, rich cultural scene, and vibrant nightlife. The area is notable for its well-preserved Republican architecture and streets adorned with captivating street art.

The Barranco bike tour leads us to the iconic Bridge of Sighs, a charming wooden bridge dating back to the 19th century. Originally constructed to span the district's gorge, it was reconstructed after the Pacific War. Beneath this bridge lies the “lowered of the baths,” a historic stone pathway once used by fishermen to access the beach.

Barranco exudes a unique charm, boasting numerous inviting coffee shops and exquisite cuisine. We'll pause for a much-needed break to savor a refreshing refreshment before making our way back to the starting point in Miraflores.
