Not worth the money
Food portion very small: first stop was 2 skewers for 4 people where each skewer has 3 pieces of meat, second stop 4 pieces of chocolates for 4 people- not much of a tasting if each of us can only try one flavor. Had to pay 3 sols for almond milk instead of regular milk in hot chocolate, for an $80 per person tour, which is unbelievable. Tour guide is nice but has no deep knowledge of Peruvian cuisine - didn’t learn anything I don’t already know. Not worth the money.
Operator response
Thank you for sharing your perspective, Yin. We thoughtfully curate our tours to showcase a variety of the local food scene, with tastings spaced throughout the tour so guests can enjoy several different flavors without becoming too full midway through the experience. At the same time, we appreciate your feedback on the portions, as personal tastes and appetites can vary, and this perspective is useful as we continue to refine how we deliver the experience.
We’re also glad to hear that you found your guide hospitable. We acknowledge that every guest has different interests and expectations, and we equally value your perspective as we continue refining the experience and sharing the richness of the city’s food culture.
We would be happy to welcome you back on a future visit and give you another opportunity to experience one of our tours. We hope we can provide an experience that better matches what you are looking for.

Perfect introduction to Lima
We did this on our first day in Lima and what a good decision this was. We were taken to some gems of places that we would not have found ourselves. The food was fantastic and we were very full by the end of it. Our guide Alondra was very knowledgeable and had a lot of great tips. We now have a number of places and dishes we need to try out in Lima over our remaining time here. Thanks for giving us a great welcoming experience for Lima.
