Once in a lifetime food experience! - Marcos was amazing and super knowledgeable about the food and history surrounding it. The tour covered spots a tourist could never find and enjoy on their own while clearly explaining the taste and background of the food with good humor mixed in. This is a can’t miss in Lima especially with Marcos leading your group. Lima is a food capital of the world for good reason!

Authentic food tour - The food tour was really nice experience, we visited several restaurants and a couple of street food stalls. It had less the type of street food we assumed since we ate mostly in small restaurants, that being said the food was however very authentic and we were surrounded by the locals. The tour part was rather unneccesary for us since we took a dedicated tour already, also it was not sufficient to cover the history properly. So I think that part could be improved to be perfect.
Thank you so much !
