5.00I had a great time with Miguel! He was very friendly and took the time to show me different fruits and taught me about Peru. I have a dairy intolerance but Miguel made sure I could eat what I made. He even suggested some classic Peruvian dishes I could try around Lima and in Cusco (where I’ll be heading next). Making the food was fun and the chef teaching me (Lorenza (?)) was very kind as well. It was so cool to try my hand at making traditional dishes! I highly recommend this tour and taking it with Miguel!
The best decision if you come to Lima

5.00The experience started with a trip to a local coffee shop that grows and roasts its own beans. What a treat! I love coffee, and it was great to hear the different ways beans are harvest and to sample the effect on the flavor. I took a bunch of tours in Peru, and Jonathan was a true standout. His English was excellent, and he explained everything slowly and carefully. Can't recommend enough.
Coffee, food, booze and a great guide… need we say more!

5.00The tour started at Terrua Cafe where the owner served us a delicious coffee that is made from beans grown in his farm in the Andes. Then to the market where I tasted my new favorite fruit, chirimonga. In the cooking class we made ceviche and fauna. All this with our delightful guide, Sergio. A well spent 4 hours.
Delicious and interesting food tour!

5.00We loved our tour with Sergio!! He shared interesting information about Peruvian food history and culture. We enjoyed cappuccinos at a local cafe, took a walking tour through a local market, and finally learned how to make our own ceviche and causa. Pisco Sours and Chillcanos were also part of the day. We could not have asked for a better experience.
