Awesome spots, great food. Paola was excellent. Great dose of history as well
Had a wonderful time on the Barranco tour and really enjoyed trying a number of local dishes/delicacies. Our guide Marco was lovely and very knowledgeable. He made the tour really interesting and fun. I loved all the places we visited (places we wouldn't have known about) and would definitely recommend this tour.
Had an amazing time with David, the food is amazing and his commentary as well as that from the various chefs you meet truly makes the experience unforgettable. Make sure to get there ready to eat!
Had an absolute wonderful time . Our guide was full information both about the food and the culture. We all engaged in a lot of extracurricular conversations, making the whole experience that much more full and rich. And by the way the food was fantastic

Marcos is THE BEST GUIDE! I was the only person on my tour and he kept me engaged and interested the entire 4 hours. I LOVED every place went: Luna Nueva, Tienda Exquisito Peru, Pejerrey Point, Nuna, Jade Rivera, Gula and BLU. The food was FABULOUS! The gallery was GOOSEBUMPS producing. Everyone was so friendly.
