Do This Tour - Excellent food and drink pairings. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the food and culture of Peru and Cusco. She accommodated our needs as we were suffering from the altitude and recommended a great herbal remedy which helped. Despite our feeling slightly ill, we had a fantastic time.

Amazing dishes with an expert - Angelo was an exceptional tour guide; highly knowledgeable on both the culinary history of Peru and gastronomy in general. Definitely come hungry, you get a nice mix of high end faire at a restaurant and traditional street food with a couple cocktails thrown in. Highly recommend.

Great Time! - We loved our food tour with Jose! We tried so many great local specialities - from pisco sours and chilcanos to ceviche, tamales, anticuchos, and piccarones! Our host Jose was amazing! He gave great overviews of Peruvian food and drinks, made sure we were having a great time, and offered great recommendations outside of the tour itself. We highly recommend taking this tour with Marcelo Batata group!
