Barranco, a traditional Limean district known by its artistic and cultural scene, has recently opened its own city tour, in a "Mirabús" managed by CitySightseeing Lima.

The route, designed for the foreign and national tourist as well, travels through the district's main attractions of the district, from Larcomar Shopping Mall towards Barranco Municipality.

The tour includes the current Museum of Contemporary Art (MAC), Barranco's Main Square, the "Bridge of the Sighs", the Viewpoint, the Chabuca Granda way and the "Bajada a los Baños" (the old path to the beaches).

This tour, full of tradition, lasts some 45 minutes, ending with a visit to the Museum Pedro of Osma, that showcases one of the better collections of colonial art in Lima.
