Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best way to get to Premier 2* from Lima, and what should we expect upon arrival?

We usually fly from Lima to Chiclayo, which is the closest major airport. From there, a taxi or pre-arranged transfer will take you the remaining hour or so to the guesthouse. Expect a warm welcome and a simple, comfortable base from which to explore the incredible Bosque de Pómac.

Since Premier 2* is a guesthouse, what kind of amenities and services can we realistically anticipate?

We found Premier 2* to be a charming and unpretentious guesthouse, offering clean rooms and friendly service. While it's not a luxury lodge, it provides all the essentials for a comfortable stay, including meals. Think of it as a welcoming home base rather than a resort.

What are the must-do activities when staying at Premier 2*, given its proximity to Santuario Histórico Bosque de Pómac?

Our top recommendation is to spend as much time as possible exploring the Bosque de Pómac itself. We love walking the trails early in the morning to spot the endemic dry forest birdlife and marvel at the ancient carob trees. The guesthouse can help arrange guided walks, which we found invaluable.

We're keen on seeing wildlife. What specific animals are we likely to encounter near Premier 2* and in the Bosque de Pómac?

The Bosque de Pómac is a birdwatcher's paradise. We consistently look for the elegant Long-tailed Mockingbird and the distinctive Gray-chinned Antpitta. You might also spot various hummingbirds and other dry forest specialists. While larger mammals are rare, the avian life is truly spectacular.

What's the best time of year to visit Premier 2* and the Bosque de Pómac, and are there any specific safety considerations?

We prefer visiting during the dry season, from May to October, when the weather is pleasant and bird activity is high. The guesthouse is in a safe rural area, and we've never had concerns. Just be prepared for the heat, especially during midday, and always carry water when exploring the forest.
