1. Musée Larco

   The tour begins with pickup from your hotel in Miraflores or San Isidro. Discover one of the most impressive collections of ancient Peru at the Larco Museum, located in an elegant 18th-century colonial mansion surrounded by lush, blooming gardens that invite peaceful reflection. During the guided visit, you'll explore galleries showcasing the world's most remarkable collection of pre-Columbian gold and silver, bearing witness to the grandeur of ancient Andean civilizations. You'll also explore the museum’s famous and unique erotic pottery collection, offering insight into how pre-Hispanic cultures understood sexuality, fertility, and their connection with nature.
