Villa El Salvador Excursion

Your journey begins promptly at 9 am with a pickup from your accommodation in Callao. From there, we will make our way toward the southern region of Lima, specifically venturing to the periphery of the capital.

Upon arrival in Villa El Salvador, recognized as one of Lima's most densely populated areas, you’ll encounter a rich tapestry of diverse ethnic groups, including the Quechua, Aymara, Amazonian, and Afro-Peruvian communities.

This district, marked by its high population density, faces economic challenges, leading the Peruvian government to implement various initiatives aimed at enhancing both social and economic conditions within Villa El Salvador. During our visit, we will delve into the details of these vital projects!

Our next stop will be a local dining establishment run by a community member, offering affordable meals geared towards the hardworking residents of the area. Here, we will also have a chance to admire the striking street art adorning the walls of various homes throughout the neighborhood.

Following this, we will proceed to the Wood and Home Furnishings Center, a local endeavor that provides handcrafted items at reasonable prices to support families with limited financial resources.

Our itinerary will include a visit to a traditional craft shop, where you can appreciate exquisite decorative works—an ideal opportunity to acquire a meaningful keepsake from your journey through Villa El Salvador!

As we conclude, our return to your hotel will be accompanied by glimpses of the Lurin Valley’s countryside and captivating vistas of the Pacific Ocean from the bus.

We expect to have you back at your hotel in Callao between 3:30 and 4 pm.
