Tour description

🏳️‍🌈🍉

This is not just a food tour, it's anthropology in motion.

Not just a mainstream tasting show, but a social journey beyond the Netflix version of Peru.

Authentic, immersive, and accessible. Far from the fine-dining world of Central or Maido.

We'll walk through streets and markets that may be crowded, chaotic, noisy, and even overwhelming, yet deeply authentic, in the non-touristy areas of Lima's historic center: Ramon Castilla Market, Mesa Redonda, Barrios Altos, and Chinatown.


 We will try a wide variety of delicious Peruvian dishes including tasty bites, local markets, and hole-in-the-wall spots, all carefully selected by local food experts.


And you know what? You will directly support local vendors, learn about its history and culture while immersing yourself into the real Peru.


We are not just food-loving locals and licensed guides with years of experience. We are a team of cultural ambassadors and professional storytellers.


🏳️‍🌈🍉


IMPORTANT INFORMATION


At the beginning of the tour, we will ask for 120 soles per person. This amount includes great food (a lot of it), drinks, surprises, and logistics.


This is a collective gastronomic ritual, so it is not possible to join the tour without being part of the food experience.


We truly value honest reviews, and we would appreciate it if you take a moment to leave one at the end of the tour.


All our guides are professional Peruvians, with at least 3 to 5 years of university education.


We do not take you to, nor recommend, tourist traps or “museum shops” that you can easily visit on your own.


We do not accept massive groups.

We prioritize quality, real connection, and transparency over numbers.


This is a small-scale, high-impact experience.

No crowds. No rush. No checklist tourism.


✨ If you are not going to attend the tour, please cancel your booking as soon as possible.


Thank you!
