リマのプライベートガイド付きウォーキングストリートフードツアー

This tour was an absolute waste of time and money. The tour guide, Pamela Elizabeth, was on her phone texting most of the time, took over an hour before our first sample of food, and didn’t understand one of our guest’s allergies that we clearly stated (and then had to repeat multiple times after she insisted that the food didn’t have “too much” of the allergen in it). She had to ask multiple vendors what the food was before then offering it to us, and she seemed to be stalling at most of the locations (pointing out items like broccoli and mushrooms in the Chinese market). The “pisco sour class” was in the back of a tourist trap liquor store, where they made a single pisco sour for our group of four to share, and then pushed their products on us. The tour took 3.5 hours, mostly walking back and forth through crowds and trying to keep up with Pamela (who was texting the pictures she had taken of us to someone who kept responding with gifs). A total scam and waste of time.

Amazing experience! Perfect combination of trying different local foods and getting to know the city better.

I had an amazing afternoon and learned so much about the city and Peruvian food. We tasted so many different things, and all local, no tourist traps :). Very knowledgeable and just a really nice guide. 😁

John was a great guide. We ate all sorts of foods and experienced the market that is definitely not designed for tourists. We tried: anticuchos, ceviche, many fruits, chichamorada, some snacks, and more.

A truly memorable food tour in Lima historical center . John took me to the most local places , made me meet some great people , who work their produce wholeheartedly . We had a very nice walk around the lovely streets of colonial Lima and the Mercado Central. Everything was so delicious ! The Churros , the Papas con Huevos , the ceviche , the Ponche de Maca , all the various piscos , an incredible diversity of local fruits , etc … John is also extremely knowledgeable about the history of each place so I learned a lot during that tour !!! Don’t hesitate to book John if you want to have a great time in Lima . You will feel like being with a friend .

John treated us like family as soon as we met up! We had a great time, dancing in the square, eating picarones, making new friends along the way. We would stop at different stalls because John “had a feeling” and it was like the yummy food was talking to him! We walked, we laughed, we danced and learned! We wish we could go back to Lima soon! If so, we will definitely book with this travel company and request John!

When I booked this tour, I didn’t realize is was private. So as a solo traveler, I had John’s full attention and learned so much about Peru’s traditions, history and, of course, food! I am not a “foodie” at all, I am actually quite fussy. Even with having me as a tough customer, he did everything he could to make it fun for me! I will be here for a month and I know I could call on him for a cooking class or a Spanish lesson, which I desperately need! Thanks so much, John, you were great!

This was a great tour, we explored the city and got to try fun new foods along the way, we tried fruits, drinks, pisco, deserts. I would recommend it.

Great way to get to know the many different parts of the Peruvian cuisine. John clearly knows his way around downtown Lima and I got to try most of the staples of the Peruvian cuisine. Many different fresh local fruits at the market, classic Peruvian drinks and all kinds of street food, both savoury and sweet. Make sure to come hungry, there's a lot of good food to try on this tour!

We thoroughly enjoyed our walking tour with John. He introduced us to the local foods and gave us a great experience. Highly recommend!
