“What does “Spicy” (picante) mean in Peru? It can refer to hot, chili-laden food, but it also describes a neighborhood with a rough reputation. Don’t worry, we’ll be in the touristic area of Callao, which is cleaner and safer than Miraflores.

  • We avoid all tourist traps.”

Perfect Structure and mix of emotions! - It's really amazing the way how Bruce performs perfectly a large number of tours in Lima and Cusco. My family have done a Street Food Tour at the Center of Lima with Inka Pride, and we did love the ceviche, so we were easily convinced to do a Sea Food Tour in Callao. This tour is much more than any sort of expectation I could have thought about! Every single surprise was DELICIOUS and enriched by a huge tsunami of knowledge about the history and the dark culture of Callao and it's vibrant salsa music! Thank you so much Bruce and Inka Pride for ALL! We will recommend Inka Pride to everyone!

AMAZING TOUR! Callao is surprising and underrated! - My family booked this tour with Inka Pride. Our guide Bruce was very knowledgeable. This is definitely an underrated part of Lima. It has the reputation of being dangerous. However, the streets were much cleaner than the touristic Miraflores and (by far) much more interesting and even felt safer. It was very beautiful walking and we felt like part of a documentary. Perfect timing for all details and surprises! Breakfast, snacks, and lunch were excellent!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
