What you can expect

  • How do you discover the soul of a city? By walking its streets and tasting the dishes that have been enjoyed by generations of Limeños. On this foodie tour, you'll explore Lima's Historic Centre to discover its architecture, its squares, and the flavours that shaped Peru's capital.

    We'll start at Plaza Mayor, where you'll learn about the history of Lima's founding and its main landmarks before stopping at a traditional sweet shop to try the classic ranfañote, one of the oldest desserts in Lima's culinary tradition.

    We'll then head to one of the city's most iconic eateries to enjoy a pan con chicharrón (pork belly sandwich) paired with chicha morada (purple corn drink), the favourite breakfast of many Limeños for generations.

    We'll then head into Chinatown, where you'll discover the influence of Chinese immigration on Peruvian cuisine as you sample a selection of authentic dim sum and stroll through its colourful streets steeped in history and tradition.

    The experience continues on a rooftop with one of the best views of the Plaza Mayor, where you'll toast with a classic Pisco Sour while taking in the historic heart of Lima from above.

    We'll wrap up with a Creole lunch at a traditional restaurant, savouring ceviche, rice with seafood, and Andean breads to conclude a tour that brings together history, culture, and gastronomy in a single experience.
