    Amazing

    This was an awesome tour. The wife and I had amazing time with our tour guide Felipe and hus driver. The fish market and food market in Chorrillos was amazing. The food that we sample at the hole in the wall restaurant was out of this world good. The walking thru the Barranco neighborhood where we got to see the Arfo-Bohemian art work was cool too. This tour is worth the money.

    Response from the operator: Hi dear Eric and Ashley, thank you for taking time out of your day and leave a nice review! Felipe your guide, Adrian you’re driver and the whole Chasky Xpedition Family is more than pleased to be one of your best memories in Peru, we could not be more grateful for this wonderful experience with you! Greetings from Lima and hope to see you soon!

    Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco 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 Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco take?

    +

    Plan for about 4 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 Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 62 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco?

    +

    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 Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco?

    +

    Around 2 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 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco 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 Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco?

    +

    Included: Professional guide; Air-conditioned vehicle; Snacks; Peruvian dishes samples; and Hotel or Apartament pickup and drop-off (hotels in Barranco, Miraflores, San Isidro). Not included: Gratuities; and Souvenirs. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 195 listed pickup locations in and around Lima. Be ready about 5 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco 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 Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco?

    +

    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.

    What happens to Peruvian Flavor Tasting Tour Through Local Markets and Barranco if the weather is bad?

    +
