Lima Food Markets Tour + Tasting
Lima Food Markets Tour + Tasting
We'll pick you up from your hotel to tour Lima's traditional markets. Ready to dive head first into Peruvian cuisine and sample rich local flavors?
Our first stop is at a small traditional market, where we'll take a gander at what local ingredients are typical in the area. These products are often considered authentic Andean and Amazonian treasures.
As we enter the stall, you'll be blown away by the number of domestic fruit varieties, each offering a distinctive flavor only found in Peru. Here, we'll also have the opportunity to connect with day-to-day life in Lima by chatting with the local shopkeepers and listening to their experiences.
Next up, our journey through the traditional markets extends as we come to the charming fishing village of Chorrillos, renowned for its abundance of fresh seafood and fish. Upon arrival, we'll uncover the secrets behind Peru's most celebrated dish and carefully choose the finest fish for crafting this iconic recipe. Yes, we're referring to none other than the emblematic ceviche!
At this vibrant market, our friendly fishermen companions will enlighten us about the diverse varieties of fish ideal for creating this dish. And, as a delightful culmination, we'll indulge in the exquisite flavors of a mouthwatering ceviche at a nearby local restaurant.
To wrap up this culinary experience, we'll head to Surquillo Market to enjoy the best Amazonian food. Here, we'll sample various fresh fruits that will surely be a genuine explosion of flavors on your palate!
With full bellies, after 3 hours of enjoying the traditional markets of Lima, we'll bring you back to your hotel and end our tour.
