The tour of Lima you need to do first of all! - Kimberly and Ceci picked us up at the hotel for the evening experience. I won’t go into the details but I’d say that when coming to Lima this Gourmet Food tour, either at daytime or evening time, is a MUST. Yes, and the following day you can visit the historic sites. Not only the quality of the dishes presented to you is superb, you also get the knowledgeable comments from Kimberly, the guide, and you are taken to three different restaurants in great locations plus the last place where you get your desserts. Excellent tour!!

Wonderful food tour! - We like to do food tours on our first days after arriving. This food tour did not disappoint, This food tour was excellent! And our guide, Amy was wonderful. Not only did she talk about the food, but the history of Lima and the different neighborhoods and the life of a modern Peruvian living in Lima. We enjoyed sampling all of the food on the four different stops in various parts of the city, The included van transportation to the different restaurants justifies the higher cost of the tour, but it was well worth it. The highlight was the food sampling at Huaca Pucllana and the short walk in Barranco. Highly recommended!

A lovely sunset in Lima - A must-have, pleasant experience through some of the fancier neighborhoods of Lima. Pretty sights, historical sites and the unparalleled Peruvian cuisine make up an unforgettable evening for those that enjoy learning and eating with style. Special thanks to our tour guide, Amy, equally fluent in English and Spanish and knowledgeable in just about every conceivable topic - adding a truly interesting chat to an already excellent experience!

All the Food - I did this my first day in Lima and it was a great way to get to check out the different areas of Lima, both physically and in cuisine. Our tour guide was great and the food was even better. You get a lot of context into the dishes and ingredients.

Gourmet Food Tour - Evening Tour - This food tour was recommended to me by travelers I met in Peru and it did not disappoint. Our group was only 4 people which made it very intimate and we really got to know each other. As a solo traveler, I appreciated it because it allowed me to meet and interact with people from all over the world. Our guide Sue was excellent and I learned so much about the gastronomy scene in Lima and the rest of Peru. You can tell she is extremely passionate about what she does and I would highly recommend it as a solo traveler or a small group. One recommendation, come hungry you will eat a lot of amazing food!

Tasteless food at all stops, don’t waste you time nor money! - Tour and food is mediocre at best. Definitely not worth the cost charged for the tour. Save yourself the time and money and go to a restaurant on your own and keep money in your pocket. You will not miss anything by missing this tour.
