Introduction to Lima Days:

These are very easy Lima one day trips and our classic Santa Eulalia and Marcopomacocha circuit. Some visitors will undoubtedly already have visited some of the sites, but after a long and dusty trip in interior Peru it may be a good idea to have a few days to relax in Lima.

There are some great archeological museums in Lima, which should not be missed. Lima Days does not include hotel or meals. We have several hotel possibilities which we can book for you at wide range of prices.

These trips can be booked at any time and with short notice.

Also check these trips. 

Half day trips.

Perfect tours if you are short of time, want to do other activities in Lima as well, or perhaps have a plane to catch and some time to kill. 

• El Olivar Park and Pantanos de Villa
  Good introduction to the birds of Lima

• Palomino Islets and La Poza Arenilla en La Punta
  Visit South American Sea lions, Humboldt Penguin and the Palomino guano islands off La Punta, Callao with a good bird guide.
• Ventanilla Lagoons - a few hours to kill near airport
  Great wetland area just north of the airport. Combine with La Punta.

Pucusana, Pantanos de Villa, Puerto Viejo, Lomas de Asia and Cañete valley:

One of our Lima favorites. You may not have time to visit all the localities. It all depends on what pace you want.

We start in Pantanos de Villa looking for Great Grebe, Andean Duck, Black Skimmer, Many-colored Rush-Tyrant and many more..

In Pucusana we usually see Humboldt Penguin, Red-legged Cormorant, Inca Tern, Peruvian Seaside Cinclodes, Blackish Oystercatcher, Guanay Cormorant and Peruvian Pelican. It is possible to make a short boat trip for some additional chance of photography. 

Puerto Viejo is a good place for Peruvian Thick-knee, but it is also an location to get good views of smaller birds such as Yellowish Pipit, Grassland Yellow-Finch, Drab, Chestnut-throated and Parrot-billed Seedeaters, Coastal Miner, Short-tailed Field-Tyrant and Collared Warbling-Finch.

If time permits, we will further explore Lomas de Asia for Thick-billed Miner and Raimondi's Yellow-Finch and Cañete valley for Slender-billed Finch and the rufescens race of Bran-colored Flycatcher, among other species. This is an optional extension for the group.
