A self guided audio tour of Lima.
Lima has always been Peru's central pulse. From its founding as the capital of the Viceroyalty of Peru, this coastal metropolis grew into a global hub for culture and commerce. Today, the city anchors regional diplomacy, hosting massive international events from the Pan American Games in 2019 to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Meetings in 2024. Wander through its districts to grasp how a massive population supports a complex, modern administrative and cultural machine.
In the app, 100 stops in Lima are narrated aloud, about 2h 50m of listening across 7 walking routes, in 13 languages, offline once downloaded. Choose a route or build your own, then walk while a calm voice tells you the story of each stop. The app also maps 45 Instagram photo spots, social media photo locations with directions to where you stand for the shot.
