    Samira was an amazing guide! She was so excited to show us the different foods and it made us even more excited! She gave history of each food we tried! This tour was beyond my expectations! I loved it so much! Such a culturally enriching experience. Each part was so special. Samira was so smart and had answers to every question we had! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! The ceviche was amazing and better than any other I had in Lima! I would’ve never known to go to these places without a guide! So grateful for this experience.

    Great cultural experience!!!

    We had an amazing food tour and visit to the Magic Water Circuit in Lima! Samira was an excellent tour guide—friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience both fun and informative. The food was delicious, and the Magic Circuit was absolutely beautiful at night. Highly recommended!

    Fun Food Adventure!

    This tour is a really great way to visit a few neighborhoods near central Lima while tasting some street food that you might have otherwise passed by. Our guide, Nicole, was fun and knowledgeable. This was definitely a great introduction to many of the foods that Lima locals enjoy every day.

    Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lima.

    How much does Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $63 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 : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.7 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 : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 10 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 : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour?

    +

    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 : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour?

    +

    Around 4 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 2.7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour 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 is included in Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour?

    +

    Included: Alcoholic beverages; Professional tourism guide; Bottled water; Snacks; and Meals. Not included: Memories. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Where is the meeting point for Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour?

    +

    Go to Plaza Perú, located in a corner of the Plaza de Armas, next to the Government Palace and Municipality of Lima, where our meeting point is located. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.

    What languages is Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour offered in?

    +

    It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Lima : Street Food, Local Flavors, Ceviche and Pisco Sour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
