Fun and Delicious!
Chris gave us a great immersive tour of the market explaining all the interesting Peruvian fruits, vegetables, grains, and meats. Then we went to a private dining room and cooking studio where we made ourselves a pisco sour and a 3-course meal. It was fun and entertaining, and everything was delicious!
Response from the operator: So great to hear you enjoyed the experience! The market part is one of my favorites — there’s always something new to discover. You guys cooked everything so well and it was a really fun session. Thanks for coming and for sharing such kind words!

YUM YUM YUM!
Christian was AMAZING! We had so much fun and the food was so delicious! Thank you for changing my mind on alpaca! We loved it, would highly recommend!
Response from the operator: I knew I could convert you to the alpaca side! 😂 So glad you loved it. You guys brought such great energy — made the class a blast. Thanks for coming and cooking with me, hope we cross paths again soon!

Market tour and lunch cooking class was terrific!
Our family of five (20,18 and 14) really enjoyed the walk around the market and lunch cooking class. The market tour was fascinating and very informative. Luigi was a great guide and excellent teacher. Never thought we could learn how to make our own ceviche, and the homemade passion fruit pisco sours we made were delicious. Very accommodative to tastes (no fish or dairy for some of our group), Highly recommended!!

Why this scores 69
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How does San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class compare to similar tours in Cusco?
+
It ranks #7 of the 7 similar experiences we compared in Cusco, with an Outty Ranking of 69. At $57 it sits above the typical similar option ($43), so book it for what is included rather than price. Best for families and anyone who wants flexible plans.
Who is San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class best for?
+
It suits families and anyone who wants flexible plans best, based on its 4-hour length, all-ages access and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
Is San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class good value?
+
It is a premium pick. It starts at $57, above the $43 typical for similar experiences in Cusco.
How much does San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class cost?
+
Prices start at $57 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cusco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class 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 Cusco is not rushed.
Is San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 32 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class?
+
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 San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class 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 San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class?
+
Around 11 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 Cusco 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 Cusco and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does San Pedro Market Tour with Peruvian Cooking Class 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 Cusco 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 Cusco?
+
On Outty we rank every Cusco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sacred Valley Full Day Tour, Full-Day Humantay Lake Trek (Meals Included), Full-Day Rainbow Mountain Trek (Meals Included). 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 Cusco?
+
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 Cusco?
+
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.
