Fun afternoon learning about foods, culture and history

Published on Feb, 2025

Lorena was a great guide. She took us into markets and street stands we’d never visit on our own, introducing us to common fruits, corn and other treats. Also, we walked to the main plaza and she shared some key Lima and Peru history. She took us to one of her favorite restaurants, based on its history, where we had wonderful ceviche. We had a really fun time with her and doing the tour. Also, she was great to coordinate with. I needed to connect for some details and she was super responsive and she communicated logistics.

Amazing tour with food

Published on Feb, 2025

Excellent tour with Yvonne. It was the perfect blend of history/information and delicious snacks and foods to try. I especially loved the attention to sanitation, as we recently had a rough experience with another food tour in South America. So highly recommend this tour!

Do this tour!

Choji was awesome. His food tour was one of the highlights for us whilst in Peru. He is an extremely kind person apparent on how he treated those that were less fortunate that we came in contact with. His knowledge regarding our stops and the food we sampled was so interesting. Highly Highly recommend this tour with Choji

Super fun tour and great for kids

Published on Feb, 2025

We absolutely loved our tour with Choji. He was super informative on the history of not only Peruvian food but how it linked to the rest of the world. It was so interesting.He also managed to keep my 4 year old engaged and having fun and going to the market was such an eye opener for her little eyes and ours. My husband is a Peruvian native and he loved it and learnt a few new things! Choji is a an excellent guide and this was a fantastic morning we loved it! Do it! Highly recommend

Great tour for Lima street food!

Published on Jan, 2025

My wife and I booked a tasting tour with Choji and cannot be happier. We were able to communicate before the tour using WhatsApp and that made coordinating our meeting time and location easier. Choji is the perfect tour guide for the 10 tastings of Lima. He is a Peruvian with Japanese roots which provides very interesting insights. Choji has also travelled extensively so he is able to add his experience in other places to contrast with Peru. On top of that, his grandmother had a bakery right in the city center and he grew up in that area. As a result, you get an inside look with his deep connections. The tour covers a lot of the "daily" food of typical Peruvians and also multiple districts (new, old, Chinatown, and the market). We walked for nearly 3 hours and ate a lot of food! At each stop, Choji doesn't just explain what the food is, he talked about the history of the store and the owners. He took us into the kitchen of the oldest bar in Lima and explained how they are all descendants of the workers that took over when the owners left. At each stop, he introduced each owner and you just feel like he is sharing his relationships with you. You can sense the pride he has in sharing his insights but also in ensuring that we had a good tour. Unlike some of the other tours, Choji will also participate in eating the food at certain stops and you just see how much he enjoys the food! Choji also shared his experience growing up in Peru as a Okinawan which was very interesting to me. With the Japanese having such a big influence in the cuisine of Peru and Choji having culinary experience, it was a great opportunity to learn. This tour is a good way to learn the local foods of Lima. Choji doesn't just provide the food but adds his fun and immersive personality throughout the tour. I enjoyed our 3 hours with Choji!
