Start the day off with a hotel pickup at 9:30 am for your 4 hour Market & Restaurant Tour!

visit our favorite food market to taste, smell and marvel at some of Peru's most delicious & extraordinary ingredients, like quinoa, maca & ají amarillo and learn how they are transformed into some of Peru's most popular dishes. Here you will try fruits, snacks, beverages, desserts and more! Take time to shop for gifts or souvenirs.

Visit a quaint & tucked away fisherman's wharf in the historic district of Chorrillos to learn about Peru's vast marine biodiversity and Peru's historic relationship with the sea. Take in picturesque views of the Pacific ocean and Lima's lush coastal cliffs, known as "La Costa Verde". Here you will be able to take great pictures of the city, typically unseen to tourists.

While exploring Lima's seldom visited coast, stop into a seaside restaurant to relax and enjoy a ceviche & pisco sour cooking demonstration & tasting and revisit some of the ingredients introduced to you in the market, with a 3 course lunch highlighting some of Peru's best dishes. As you have a hearty lunch, take a moment to appreciate the music and customs that accompany most meals.

Finish up the day in a cafe in the bohemian Barranco district, to learn about the district's important cultural & literary history & a tasting of 3 unique coffee roasts from the Cuzco, Junin & Cajamarca regions of Peru. As coffee takes flight as an important export crop, get an insiders look at how this product is changing lives all around the country.
