The story of food is the story of the people.
Explore the unique and authentic street food and traditional quisine of the Sacred Valley.
Food can tell many stories… cultural, social, economic, and sometimes also emotional and spiritual.
Our tour invites you to take an in-depth look at the relationship between food and the people, through an experiential encounter with the typical street food and traditional quisine of the Sacred Valley of Peru.
The tour begins with a morning of tasting in the charming market area of the town of Urubamba. We will then take a tour to the magical Inca town of Ollantaytambo. Then we drive up the breathtaking mountains of the Andes to visit an indigenous Peruvian family and enjoy a traditional festive lunch. In the evening we will return to Urubamba, to finish the day with a local dessert.
So come with me and dive into an exiting, authentic and delicious experience. Lets go get something to eat!

5.00The tour with list is amazing, you start with food but get connected to the Peruvian mentality and culture. You get insights about yourself and get to understand what’s good on one culture and what’s bed in the other so you can apply it to your life. 10/10 would recommend and would go again, if you’re in Cusco and the sacred valley it’s a must tour

5.00We had an amazing food tour in the Sacred Valley near Cusco with Liat, an incredible Israeli guide. The experience was packed with delicious local dishes, and we learned so much about Peruvian culture and the Inca history along the way. Liat is warm, knowledgeable, and explains everything in a clear and engaging way. You can really feel her passion for the food and the culture, which makes the whole experience even more special. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area — don’t miss it!
