Um breve tour sobre a história do Peru

Vanessa foi muito organizada e pontual. Une à caminhada uma visita ao Museu para contar a história do Peru e ao longo do caminho curiosidades sobre a cultura.

Historia e inclusión en Lima.

​¡Una experiencia inolvidable en Lima gracias a Vanessa! ​Hicimos el free tour por el casco histórico y superó todas nuestras expectativas. Vanessa nos llevó al museo donde comenzó nuestro recorrido además por la catedral, el palacio, y los puntos más emblemáticos, demostrando un conocimiento profundo y apasionante de la historia limeña. ​Queremos destacar especialmente su empatía y dedicación: Cristian tiene discapacidad visual y Vanessa adaptó el recorrido con un apoyo constante y descripciones detalladas para que disfrutara la experiencia en igualdad de condiciones. Fue un servicio verdaderamente inclusivo, cálido y a la medida. ​¡Recomendamos a Vanessa al 100%! Muchas gracias por tu profesionalismo y amabilidad. Muchas gracias por enseñar nos sobre la historia. Marcelo y Cristian, Chile
