Great Food Tour and Delicious Peruvian Food
We had a fantastic private food tour with Patricia! She was warm, knowledgeable and wonderful company throughout the evening. We discovered a great variety of Peruvian dishes and flavors while learning about the local food culture along the way. Everything was delicious, and having Patricia as our private guide made the experience feel very personal and relaxed. A perfect way to spend our last evening in Peru!

Great food tour
This was so much more than a food tour - at one venue we had a view of precolumbian ruins! I have been on many food tours, this one was excellent. The Lima food scene is worth a close look.
