Highlights
  • Barranco - The first stop on this Lima tour starts in the enchanting, bohemian Barranco district at a local roastery, Tostaduria Bisetti, where they hand-pick the coffee beans daily, for an organic Peruvian coffee. You will also tour the colonial streets of this trendy district, home to artists, musicians and the city’s top art galleries, visit the Bridge of Sighs and Barranco’s main square. You’ll try an exotic fruit smoothie made from lucuma at the garden cafe, La Bodega Verde.
  • Costa Verde - Get a spectacular view of Lima’s coastline as we pass through the city en route to our next culinary stop
  • Miraflores - You’ll visit a traditional market to try exotic fruits and discover local products while learning the ancient myths and legends associated with them.

The third stop is one of the city’s delicious seafood restaurants (cebichería), Embarcadero 41 Fusíon, on Avenida La Mar in the Miraflores district – a stop other tours in Lima won’t take you. You’ll discover the secrets to the perfect Cebiche and Pisco Sour as you prepare the dish and cocktail yourself with the head chef and bartender.

  • San Isidro - While we’re in this part of the city, you’ll have the chance to see some of the district’s most iconic spots, like South America’s first olive grove, el Olivar Park, pre-Incan ruins at la Huaca Huallamarca as well as the Country Club.
  • Huaca Pucllana - The last stop, and the icing on the cake, is for more dishes and dessert at la Huaca Pucllana, a restaurant within a pre-Incan archeological complex – undoubtedly a highlight of tourism in Lima. This prestigious restaurant is so impressive that the King of Spain, Mick Jagger, and many sitting presidents, just to name a few, have made sure not to miss it during their trips to Lima. You’ll enjoy a variety of gourmet Peruvian dishes as well as four different desserts and another pisco-based cocktail.

Great intro to your Lima visit - Patricia was a fantastic guide and did a great job of weaving in Peruvian culture and history as we enjoyed the authentic food. The tastings were balanced, very filling, and yummy. For what it’s worth, we have 2 teens and the fact they were engaged and did not have any complaints makes this tour a ‘must do!’ *props to our driver Jaime who provided door to door service and a very comfortable ride.

If you do one thing in Lima, take this tour! - I am not easily impressed by tours, but this experience was exceptional. Through the tour, you get immersed into the culture of Peru and Lima through both the food and the incredible knowledge the guides have that ties the food to the history, culture and vibe of the city. The tour starts at a small coffee shop in the wonderful neighborhood of Barranca, weaves through several other neighborhoods and ends at a restaurant overlooking a pre-Incan site. The food choices are not only incredible, but the locations and atmosphere of each stop create a truly memorable day. If you do one thing in Lima, take this tour!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed learning, seeing and tasting all the wonderful Peruvian flavors that Patricia shared with us. The sequence was perfect. Starting with amazing coffee and ending with a delicious array of wonderful main courses including duck, alpaca, heart, etc. We would definitely recommend Patricia and this tour to all. Thanks again Patricia. You are awesome. Dan & Jill Park City, Utah

A Wonderful Tour with Just One Glitch - Great culinary experience with quite a bit of interesting Lima history! Our guide was knowledgeable and passionate about her country and all of its many delicious offerings. I would definitely recommend this tour. Only one glitch: I have never been to Lima and did not know any of the district names or that there was more than one Wyndham Hotel Costa del Sol. I was at the airport Wyndham and the free pickup was at another one. We (along with 4 others who made the same mistake) had to get an Uber for a 45 minute ride to meet the group at the start of the tour.

Lima Gourmet Food Tour a Stand Out! - This food tour is a must! One of the best we have ever been on. Sylvia was knowledgeable about not only the food scene in Lima but the history, interesting places along the way and fun stuff. At every stop we made, we saw she was well respected by the staff and/or owners of the various establishments. And the food was awesome!

Great tour for foodies . . . or anyone wanting to familiarize themselves with Lima! - Patricia was a fantastic tour guide: knowledgeable, friendly, and enthusiastic. We went to establishments we'd never have even thought to go to without the Lima Gourmet Tour. I tried a lucuma milkshake for the first time and it blew my mind. And that was only the second stop! Highly recommend this tour for foodies who also want a bit of context for the food and establishments that serve it.
