🔥 Why You Should Do a Food Tour in Lima

If you're wondering:
"Is a food tour in Lima worth it?"


Here’s why the answer is YES:

  • Peruvian cuisine is diverse: From the coast to the Andes, each bite tells a story.
  • You’ll try dishes you won’t find on your own: Like anticuchos, causa rellena, and picarones from the best hidden gems.
  • It’s more than food – it’s culture, history, and street life in one delicious walk.
  • Local guide, zero tourist traps: We take you to places loved by Limeños, not influencers.

Our carefully crafted route starts in Plaza Mayor de Lima and takes you through 6 incredible stops:

  1. Restaurante Cordano – Taste causa rellena in a historic spot.
  2. Norky's Maruy – Try smoky, tender anticuchos (grilled beef heart).
  3. Sanguchería El Chinito – Local breakfast vibes with tamales and pork sandwiches.
  4. Ricardo's Restaurant – Creamy, spicy papa a la huancaína.
  5. Barra y Sazón WaSaJul – Crispy Peruvian-style fried fish.
  6. Street Vendor – End sweet with homemade picarones (sweet potato donuts with syrup).
Vegetarian options available. Come hungry.
