A must when visiting Lima. It completes the experience as you get to see local life and to taste a delicious ceviche in a local market or great desserts from everyday life.

Excellent tour. Good pre-tour communication and the driver was right on time. Went to several markets to see local produce and see how people live in Lima. Visited a number of kiosks and food stands to sample various kinds of local fare, all outstanding. The ceviche was especially noteworthy. Everything was very clean and we had no ill effects from eating foreign food. Visited a number of attractive neighborhoods on the south side of Lima that were a nice change from the gritty downtown.

Our guide, Alvaro, took us to a number of interesting sites that we were not expecting. We started of at a vibrant marketplace where we sampled some delicious ceviche and causal. Then Alvaro agreed to take us jewellery shopping, acting as a translator with the vendors. After that we drove across town (great driving by Jimmy) to a fish market in Chorillos. Here we got to watch the fishermen bringing in their catch, and the process that they go through after the weigh in. We got to spend some time at the pier, which was so refreshing. Then we drove to the Blanco Christo statue, which was a challenging drive up a steep hillside, but well worth the view once there. Finally we tried picarones in Barranco, which were slightly sweet, crunchy, and extremely delicious.

William was our guide and Johnny was our driver. They were both spectacular. We had 4 in our group and were treated very well . From the Fish market to the Mercado to the restaurant over the sea we learned so much and ate so well. Peruvian cuisine is excellent!! The views were amazing also. Additionally, you need to know that William is VERY knowledgeable about the history and culture of Peru as well as other countries. He was a joy! take his tour!

My friend and I had a great time with our guide Laidy (I'm sure I spelled this wrong, please forgive me), as we journeyed though the markets. We were given the opportunity to try many different fruits and later on, some of the local dishes. After trying the fruits, we were full LOL! It had so many, all being absolutely delicious. It was pleasantly surprising to me that mostly all of the fruits and vegetables found in the local markets are grown in Peru. Laidy was brilliant and she had patience in trying to understand all the questions this non Spanish-speaking traveler had. Our last treat took us to the El Gato Park, where we had a delicious desert dipped in honey. We enjoyed every bit of it but not before being chased by bees wanting to soak up all the honey for themselves LOL!! That was quite an experience. All in all, this tour was worth it! If you are going to Lima, be sure that this is the first tour you do, trust me, it would save you from spending your coins in all the wrong places where food is concerned. Laidy also gives great information on where to go based on what your interests are so make sure to ask for her specifically. Have an amazing trip, I did :)
