Yummy dive into Peruvian street food and market - This tour was nothing short of amazing. I booked the morning of flying into Lima and they were extremely accommodating. Giovana was our tour guide and she was extremely welcoming, funny and warm. She ensured we got not only tasty food but also shared her knowledge on the history and happenings of the market. She answered questions we had and encouraged us to step outside our comfort zone. She made the experience worth while and also provided recommendations on what sizes to take. When attending don’t eat prior as you will be eating from 1:30pm to 6pm Different sizes are offered for some items and the option to share is also suggested. I really loved getting a taste of various fruits as well this was a nice touch. Book this tour !

Delicious and eye-opening tour! - Highly recommend this tour to not only experience some of the best street food in Lima, but to learn more about the day to day life of many citizens of Lima. Giovanna was our guide and was incredibly knowledgeable and personable - she provided back story on each of the dishes we tried (ceviche was out of this world) while also discussing some of the hardships many in Lima encounter daily. It’s an incredibly thoughtful tour and would definitely recommend to experience some of the most genuine parts of Lima - and definitely stick around after for the optional pisco sour!

Fantastic! Highly recommend! - This was such a fun and refreshing tour. Edwin was our guide and he was fantastic. We were a small group of 4 and Edwin was patient and kind to all of us. He took us through the market tasting delicious food and explaining some of the history of Lima. We also had some of the best ceviche l've ever had. I definitely recommend this tour and hope you're lucky enough to have Edwin as your guide. Ade

Must-do Lima Food Tour! - Add this tour to your Lima trip! We tried so many amazing street food, drinks, veggies and fruits! Come to this tour hungry and don't eat too much of any one item, there's lots to try. Giovanna is sooo awesome! She knows her culture very well and is quite passionate about sharing it with you. And not just food, she shared a bit about the socioeconomic aspects of the city too. I left the tour well informed and well fed! Highly recommend!

Great tour - Had a great time with Yocedd as my guide. He was able to answer many questions the group had and was able to get us a good experience despite some shops in the market being closed due to it being Sunday/after a holiday. Would recommend this tour, but do it on a Monday-Saturday
