The Cusco street food walking tour is a guided culinary walk through the historic heart of Cusco. Taste over 10 authentic Peruvian foods — from San Pedro Market stalls to hidden street food vendors — while learning about the culture and history behind each dish. Discover anticuchos, empanadas, chicha morada, artisan chocolate, and more with a local food expert.

Why Choose the Cusco Street Food Walking Tour?

Peru is consistently ranked as one of the world’s top culinary destinations, and Cusco is its Andean food capital. But the best food isn’t always in restaurants — it’s at market stalls, on street corners, and in the tiny shops that locals line up at. This walking tour takes you to the places tourists walk past, with a local guide who knows every vendor by name.

Beyond the tastings, you’ll walk through Cusco’s most beautiful neighborhoods — from the bustling San Pedro Market to the cobblestone lanes of San Blas — learning about Inca ingredients, colonial influences, and modern Peruvian fusion cuisine along the way.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much food is included?
The tour includes 10 or more tastings at various stops — market stalls, street vendors, and artisan shops. By the end, most guests feel comfortably full and skip lunch afterward. The tastings are generous and varied, covering savory and sweet.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?
Yes! Please let us know in advance about any allergies, vegetarian, vegan, or other dietary needs. Our guide can substitute specific tastings — Peru has excellent vegetarian street food options including stuffed peppers (rocoto relleno), corn-based dishes, and tropical fruits.
Is this tour suitable for children?
Absolutely. Children love the market experience and the variety of tastings. We offer a reduced price for children aged 5-11, and children under 5 are free (with limited tastings). The walking is easy and the pace is relaxed.
How much walking is involved?
The tour covers approximately 2-3 kilometers at a slow, leisurely pace with frequent stops. Cusco is hilly and at altitude (3,400m), so we take it easy. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended. The route includes some uphill sections to San Blas.
Is the food safe to eat?
Our guide selects only vendors with high standards of hygiene and food safety. We have vetted every stop on the route. That said, street food is part of the adventure — if you have a sensitive stomach, let your guide know and they can recommend milder options at each stop.
