    Great fun, thoroughly recommended and a fabulous way to end our Peru holiday

    Many thanks to Jose Antonia for such a fabulous cookery and pisco class in his family’s gorgeous home. We really enjoyed it, he’s a great instructor and very generous with his pisco measures. A wonderful morning and we can’t wait to repeat the recipes back in the UK. Thanks again

    Great Experience for Food Lovers

    Highly recommend this experience. José is a great guide and was very clear and professional throughout the experience. I appreciate how he reached out on WhatsApp before we met to make i lt clear exactly where we were meeting. It was wonderful cooking in his home. It made the experience feel very comfortable and was like cooking with a friend. He was a great teacher and all our food came out delicious. He took some great photos and videos of us cooking to send to us later which was very thoughtful. Definitely a must-do while in Lima.

    Peruvian Cooking School with an Expert

    The Perfect—and Most Delicious—Way to End Our Peru Trip This was one of the absolute highlights of our trip to Peru. Our host picked us up in Miraflores and welcomed us into his home, where the four of us learned to make tuna tartare, authentic Peruvian ceviche, and—of course—pisco sours. He is a professional chef who started this business so he could spend more time with his family, and his passion for cooking and Peruvian culture comes through in everything he does. He also owns a pisco factory, so we learned quite a bit about Peru’s famous spirit while making some truly excellent pisco sours. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was relaxed and personal, and our host was charming, engaging, and completely fluent in English. You can tell that he genuinely cares about his craft and about giving his guests a memorable experience. There were only four of us in the class, and we quickly became friends with the other couple, who were visiting from the UK. We laughed, cooked, ate, drank, and had an absolutely fantastic time together. This was such a fun, authentic, and memorable way to end an already amazing trip to Peru. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking for much more than just another cooking class. Five stars without hesitation!

    Miraflores Lima: Cooking Class Ceviche, Tartar & Pisco Sour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Miraflores Lima: Cooking Class Ceviche, Tartar & Pisco Sour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $48 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 Miraflores Lima: Cooking Class Ceviche, Tartar & Pisco Sour take?

    +

    Plan for about 2.5 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 Miraflores Lima: Cooking Class Ceviche, Tartar & Pisco Sour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 48 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 Miraflores Lima: Cooking Class Ceviche, Tartar & 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 Miraflores Lima: Cooking Class Ceviche, Tartar & Pisco Sour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Miraflores Lima: Cooking Class Ceviche, Tartar & Pisco Sour?

    +

    Around 17 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 2.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Miraflores Lima: Cooking Class Ceviche, Tartar & 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.
