Thought provoking food experiences
An immersive experience into food from all over Peru. Thought provoking insights into food culture and a wide variety of tastes. I enjoyed all of it!

Must do experience.
I wish I had not eaten breakfast, huge portions, delicious, unique experience. Johnny was an incredible guide, explaining both the historical cultural and current evolution of the foods in Peru. My favorite was the piranha and fresh salsa, but nothing was bad on the entire tour. I loved watching the preparations, picking out fruits and tasting a different side of Peru. Loved this experience.

Piranha followed by grubs.
Great tour by Any. She’s very passionate about Amazonian culture and foods. You’ll get to try and eat a lot. For the adventurous. And those that like to try bizarre foods.

You must do this experience if you are interested in trying different dishes. Johnny was amazing. I was on a solo trip and it felt like I was walking around with a friend. I left full and satisfied. The food was amazing !

When in Rome…
Very fun tour with kind and gracious guide. I appreciated that he went out of his way to explain the foods we were about to try and what should be expected—made it less intimidating. Unique experience—what travel’s all about!

Why this scores 65

Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lima.
How much does Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies cost?
+
Prices start at $50 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lima usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lima is not rushed.
Is Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 9 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Lima, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies?
+
Around 3 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lima can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lima and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lima within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lima?
+
On Outty we rank every Lima experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Premium Paracas & Huacachina Day Trip from Lima with Sunset Toast, Discover Lima: Love Park, Historic Center, and its Catacombs., Paracas & Huacachina Premium Experience from Lima. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lima?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lima?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What happens to Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Lima. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
What do travelers say about Bizarre Foods Tour for Adventurous Foodies?
+
Across 9 reviews averaging 5.0 out of 5, recurring themes include food and drink, the guide, knowledge and storytelling. The tastings and food stops are a highlight for most reviewers.
