Lunch Show – Exhibition of Peruvian Horse with Pick up & drop off

If you want one focused night in Lima where the entertainment actually feels local, this is a smart pick. You get a Peruvian dance program plus a Peruvian Paso horse demonstration, and it’s wrapped into a proper restaurant-style buffet experience.

I really like that the price is tied to real-world comfort: air-conditioned transport with round-trip pickup and drop-off, so you are not figuring out timing and taxis after the show. I also like that your admission is handled through the venue reservation, so you can just show up and settle in. One possible drawback to note: the experience depends on being able to arrive on time for the meal and show window, so late pickup can ruin the plan.

Quick hits before you go

• Dance show and Peruvian Paso horse in one sitting, so you do not need to stack multiple tickets
• Buffet dinner included, with seating handled at the restaurant
• Round-trip pickup and drop-off in an air-conditioned vehicle
• English offered, making it easier to follow what is happening
• Group discounts available, which can improve value if you travel with friends
• Free admission through the ticket setup, because the venue reservation is part of your package

Why this Peruvian dance and Paso horse combo is an easy night out

This experience works because it compresses a lot of cultural performance into one block of time. Instead of searching for a show, buying separate tickets, and planning two different evenings, you get one scheduled night with a buffet dinner and live entertainment layered in.

The key is the mix. The dance program gives you the human side of Peruvian performance, with costuming, rhythm, and stage energy. Then the show shifts gears to the Peruvian Paso horse, which is visually dramatic and a great contrast to the dancers. Even if you are not a horse person, it adds that wow moment that makes the evening feel special without needing extra planning.

If you like your cultural nights practical, this fits. You pay once, you get transported, you eat, you watch, and you go back.

Price and value: what you are really paying for at $119 per person

At $119 per person, the price is not just for a show ticket. What you are buying is the whole package shape: the meal, the stage program, and the round-trip transport in an air-conditioned vehicle.

That matters in Lima, where late-night logistics can eat your energy. With pickup and drop-off included, you can treat the night like an event, not an obstacle course. And because you are seated for a buffet dinner included with the program, you are not scrambling for food nearby before the performance starts.

One more value point: the ticket setup includes admission to the venue with your reservation, and the “ticket admission free” line signals that the venue entry part is handled for you. The tour is also offered in English, which is a comfort factor when you just want the night to flow smoothly.

Drinks are not included, so if you like beer, soda, or mixed drinks with your meal, you will want to budget for that separately. But for most people, the inclusion of transport and dinner is the deciding factor.

The timing reality: start time vs when the show actually hits

Your start time is listed as 11:30 am, but the core event is a dinner show experience. One important detail to plan around is that the meal-and-show schedule runs into the evening, with dinner starting around 7 pm in the flow described by the experience setup.

This can create confusion if you expect to arrive, eat, and watch right away at the morning start time. So here is my practical advice: treat 11:30 am as your official start window for the day’s plan, and then plan for the real “main event” later, around dinner time.

The pickup timing can also affect whether you make the show comfortably. The experience includes pickup and drop-off, but if pickup happens late, you may miss parts of the evening flow. That is not a reason to panic, it is just a reason to keep your phone reachable and confirm your timing close to departure.

Duration is listed as 3 to 4 hours (approx.), so even though you are starting earlier in the day, the actual run time for the event block should stay fairly compact.

Where you go: Pachacamac ruins area plus the Dpaso Tourist Restaurant setup

Your day’s stop is the Pachacamac ruins area, paired with the Dpaso Tourist Restaurant. The important part is how your entry works. With purchase of your ticket, you get access included for the restaurant setting, and the operator ensures your reservation. That means less time spent asking questions at the door and more time settling in.

Because the restaurant is part of the experience, the vibe is closer to a scheduled dinner show than a casual street performance. Expect that there is an organized sequence: buffet dinner first, then the dance program, and then the horse portion.

One practical note: the venue is described as near public transportation. That can be helpful if you run into any timing hiccups with pickup, but your package is built around round-trip transportation, so you should still plan to use the included vehicle.

What you see: colorful dance segments and a Peruvian Paso horse demonstration

The onstage content is the heart of the value here. You are looking at two performance types that complement each other.

First come the typical Peruvian dances. The dancers bring energy and repetition in a good way, meaning you can follow the overall structure even if you do not speak Spanish. Expect an organized show flow rather than random segments. The best part is that the dances are designed for a seated dinner crowd, so the pacing tends to keep you engaged between courses.

Then the program moves into the Peruvian Paso horse demonstration, which is the moment many people remember. This part is visually intense compared to the dancing. Instead of costumes and footwork, you are focusing on the horse and the way the performance is presented at the venue.

If you are curious about Peruvian Paso style specifically, this is also a good way to get a first look without turning it into a full research project. You get the key performance highlights in one sitting.

The buffet dinner: what to expect and how to plan your appetite

The meal is included as part of the restaurant portion, and it is described as a delicious Peruvian buffet dinner with a good selection. The buffet format matters because it gives you control. If you arrive hungry after travel or an afternoon plan, you can eat right away. If you prefer to wait and watch early segments before eating a second round, you can pace yourself.

A practical tactic: eat earlier than you think you need to, then plan to leave room for dessert. Dinner show timing can make you feel like you are eating under a clock, even when the buffet is available. If you fill your plate near the start and then return for dessert later, you avoid the stressed scramble.

Drinks are not included, so if you want a beverage with dinner, decide what you will purchase ahead of time so you are not surprised mid-meal.

Transportation in Lima: pickup, comfort, and getting back after dark

The tour includes pickup offered and round-trip transport. The vehicle is air-conditioned, which is a big deal in Lima when you are going between neighborhoods and waiting around for show start times.

What you gain with pickup and drop-off is simple: you reduce friction. After a dinner show, you do not want to stand outside figuring out where to find a car or how long it will take. Instead, you get driven back to your hotel area after the performance.

I also like that the experience is set up for group handling. The product is described as having group discounts, which suggests a typical tour group flow rather than private-chaos. You should still expect a little waiting between transport and seating, but the overall arc is designed to be smooth.

Small but important expectations management

This is a dinner show, not a self-guided museum visit. That means your comfort comes from the structure, not from wandering time.

Also, this kind of restaurant-driven show can run into capacity issues. There is an example of a last-minute problem where the operator could not accommodate late arrivals for the show timing. Another example points to overselling of the restaurant affecting the outcome. I am not saying this happens every time. I am saying you should protect yourself by keeping your timing tight and your contact info correct so you arrive within the scheduled window.

Finally, the experience includes admission through the reservation setup, but it does not say drinks are included. Plan for additional costs if you want to purchase beverages.

Who should book this show, and who should think twice?

Book it if you want a one-night cultural plan that is easy to execute. It is a good match for:

• First-time visitors to Lima who want a structured evening
• People who like live performance and want dance plus horse in one session
• Travelers who value round-trip transport over doing their own logistics
• Groups that can benefit from group discounts

Think twice if:

• You hate fixed-time schedules and might run late
• You want a show where you can drift in and out freely, since this is tied to dinner pacing
• You are extremely price-sensitive and prefer free entertainment options only, because the transport and dinner are part of the package value

It is also described as suitable for most travelers, and it is offered in English, which helps.

Should you book Lunch Show – Exhibition of Peruvian Horse with pick up and drop off?

Yes, I would book this if your goal is a smooth, memorable Peruvian performance night with minimal planning. The strongest reasons are the combination of dance show plus Peruvian Paso horse, the buffet dinner included, and the practical round-trip pickup and drop-off in an air-conditioned vehicle.

The main reason to hold back is timing risk. Because the evening depends on being seated and ready for dinner and the show sequence, arrive within the scheduled pickup window and keep your communication open so you do not get caught in a late-arrival problem.

If you want a cultural night that feels organized and special without complicated planning, this is a solid bet.
