Good to know

How do I actually get a table at Maido, Central or Kjolle?
Book weeks ahead — the tables are the binding constraint, not the hotel. Central, Maido and Kjolle open reservations on a rolling monthly/multi-week basis and sell out, so the culinary itinerary must be built reservation-first; grey winter is fine because the dining is indoors. · ohlalima.com, 2026-07-07
What can I see in Lima in a day or two?
More than you'd expect for a gateway city. Walk to Huaca Pucllana (a ~200–700 AD adobe pyramid in Miraflores), the Convento de San Francisco (founded 1540) catacombs in the UNESCO Centro Histórico, and the Larco Museum's 5,000-year pre-Columbian collection in an 18th-century mansion. · kaypiperutours.com, 2026-07-07
Is Lima good for a honeymoon?
Yes — the base is bohemian Barranco, Lima's most walkable, romantic district, home to the Puente de los Suspiros ("Bridge of Sighs") and to Hotel B, a restored 1914 Belle Époque arts-mansion that is the city's only Relais & Châteaux. · relaischateaux.com, 2026-07-07
What's the real risk to plan for in Lima?
Urban street crime, not any activity. Stay in Miraflores, Barranco and San Isidro; use only registered radio-taxis, ride-hail apps or hotel transfers — never an unmarked street taxi, the classic express-kidnapping setup (forced ATM withdrawals over 1–3 hours). Use in-bank ATMs and keep valuables out of sight. · bushop.com, 2026-07-07
