Peruvian Food Tasting Tours

Peru is recognized as one of the world's top culinary destinations, and Cusco sits at the crossroads of Andean and international gastronomic traditions. Our food tasting tours take you beyond the tourist restaurants to discover the authentic flavors of Peruvian cuisine — from street food stalls and local markets to acclaimed restaurants where traditional recipes meet modern techniques.

What You'll Taste

A typical food tour in Cusco includes tastings of ceviche, anticuchos (grilled beef heart), traditional corn-based drinks like chicha morada, alpaca steaks, fresh empanadas, and local desserts. At San Pedro Market, you'll sample exotic fruits, fresh juices, and traditional dishes served at communal tables alongside local families. For the adventurous, cuy (guinea pig) — a Cusqueño delicacy — is always an option.
