About Lima

Lima is South America's most underrated food city — a coastal megalopolis where world-class ceviche is served in neighbourhood joints, colonial baroque churches rise above Pacific cliffs, and Miraflores glows at sunset like a city that forgot it was supposed to be overlooked. The city blends criollo warmth with Japanese-Peruvian nikkei innovation and Andean depth in ways that make every meal feel like a discovery. Come for the food, stay for the art, the surfers, and the fog that rolls in from the Pacific every single morning.

Visa requirements

Visa Free

Visa requirements depend on your passport — check your government's travel advice before booking.

Good to know

✓Book Central, Maido or Kjolle weeks ahead — top tables vanish fast
✓Stay in Miraflores or Barranco rather than the historic centre for safety and walkability
✓Use the official airport taxi (Taxi Green) or pre-booked transfers, not street pickups

✈️ Getting there

LIMJorge Chávez International Airport

📍 12 km⏱ 35 min🚌 Bus🚕 Taxi🚌 Uber

The cheapest reliable option is Uber, which runs around S/25-40 (€6-10) to Miraflores — avoid unofficial taxi touts in the arrivals hall and book via the app before you exit.

Jorge Chávez is a busy mid-size hub serving LATAM, Iberia, Air Europa and KLM among others; a major terminal expansion opened in 2025, making connections faster but the airport remains chaotic during peak Latin American holiday periods.

Don't Miss

Hidden gems and local experiences in Lima — beyond the tourist trail.

🍋Eat ceviche before noon at Mercado de Surquillo (Mercado No. 1) — locals consider afternoon ceviche a red flag. Go straight to the fish stalls at the back for raw ceviche mixto under S/20.

🌅Walk the Malecón de Miraflores at dusk — the clifftop boardwalk has paragliders launching off the edge into the Pacific haze. The best views are from Parque del Amor looking south toward Barranco.

🎨Spend a morning in Barranco, Lima's bohemian quarter. The MATE museum (Mario Testino's photography foundation) is tiny but exceptional. Arrive when it opens at 10am to beat tour groups.

🍽️Book a lunch (not dinner) at Central or Maido — both are in the World's 50 Best and lunch menus run S/300-500 vs S/800+ at dinner. Reserve 4-6 weeks ahead online; cancellations appear Friday mornings.

🏛️Visit the Larco Museum (Museo Larco) in Pueblo Libre on a Tuesday afternoon when crowds thin. The pre-Columbian erotic pottery vault in the basement is real and unmissable — it's included in the ticket price.
