Callao is Lima's cruise port, about 30 minutes from the Peruvian capital. Ships dock at the new Callao cruise terminal; nearly every passenger moves quickly to Lima proper — the Plaza Mayor, the San Francisco catacombs, the Miraflores clifftops, and the Larco Museum are the classics. Ceviche and pisco sours are the culinary excursion. Overnight calls now allow flights to Cusco and Machu Picchu for longer stays.
