The Real Market
A fabulous experience going to the market the locals actually shop at rather than a tourist hub. Each food selection was varied and I ended up having a private tour because the other part of the group had to reschedule. Arturo was very knowledgeable and well known by the vendors, and he made the morning pass by in good company.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your thoughtful review! We're delighted you experienced a true local food tour in Lima, visiting a neighborhood market where locals shop every day. Meeting passionate vendors and discovering Peru's fresh ingredients is a special part of our authentic culinary experience. We're so glad you enjoyed the personalized tour, and we hope to share even more hidden flavors of Peru with you in the future.

Great intro to the local food
A really cool experience exploring a local market with great insights about Peruvian food and produce. The guide was super friendly and knowledgeable and clearly had a close relationship with the vendors which felt very authentic. Great way to spend half a day.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted you enjoyed exploring the local market and discovering Peruvian food through the eyes of our local community. The genuine connections with our vendors make every food tour in Lima feel authentic and unforgettable. We hope to share even more of Peru's incredible flavors with you on your next visit!

Why this scores 74
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Lima Just For Foodies: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lima.
How much does Lima Just For Foodies cost?
+
Prices start at $69 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 Lima Just For 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 Lima Just For Foodies worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 113 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 Lima Just For 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 Lima Just For 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 Lima Just For Foodies?
+
Around 40 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 Lima Just For 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 Paracas & Huacachina Premium Experience from Lima, Day Tour From Lima: Paracas, Huacachina, Pisco Vineyard & Sunset, Premium Paracas & Huacachina Day Trip from Lima with Sunset Toast. 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.
