Sherpa food tour 🇵🇪 - Claudia showed me Peruvian cuisine in a way I had never known before. Super friendly and professional with the whole group. Without a doubt, if I return to Lima, I would ask for her

Fun adventurous food tour - The food was unique and a little adventurous, but overall delicious! It was cool to start at the market to taste the ingredients that we would see later in the dishes. Our guide Claudia was very pleasant and knowledgeable! Would recommend.

Amazing Walking Food Tour - Had such an amazing time on this food tour. Our tour guide was so lovely and wonderful to talk to. We learned about a lot more than food! All the stops were great and loved that it was different food instead of the traditional Peruvian dishes. We got to try a lot!

Sherpa Food Tour May 2026 - The food was incredible and our guide was very knowledgeable about Peruvian history. However, after experiencing the Sherpa food tour in Buenos Aires, I have to say that tour was more enjoyable. There was more alcohol offered and the flow of the tour felt more natural and less like a presentation. Still would do it again!
