Our guide, Marco, made the entire experience seamless, engaging, and delicious from start to finish. He brought the history, neighborhood culture, and culinary traditions to life. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Lima!
Had a really fantastic time on this tour! The food was great, the guide wonderfully knowledgeable, and the variety of places we visited made this tour worth every penny. Will recommend to friends who visit Lima.
G this is my first time in Peru. Paola is such a knowledgeable and friendly guide. She bring her enthusiastism of Peruvian food and culture to us during the tour and we just look for the next surprise all along the tour. I’ve tasted all too Peruvian dishes on my bucket list and the cooking demonstration add much enriched experience than just tasking the served food directly from a restaurant.it’s really worth the money. I enjoy the food and learn a lot for food culture.
Was excellent experience learning about Lima and Peruvian cuisine. Our guide Paola was very good, friendly and made experience more enjoyable. Very well organized.
