The experience

A four-hour guided food tour through the restaurants and markets behind Lima’s reputation as a world culinary capital.

A local guide leads the group through a sequence of tastings across several restaurants and markets, timed to Lima’s rise over the past two decades into one of the most talked-about food cities in the world, home to restaurants that have repeatedly topped global best-restaurant rankings.

The tastings cover ceviche, anticuchos and other Peruvian staples alongside the ingredients — native potatoes, chillies and Amazonian produce — that chefs have used to put Peruvian cooking on the global stage.
