Lima Food Tour: Surquillo Market & Miraflores

About This Activity

Lima's guided food tours are among Latin America's best. A typical 4–5 hour small-group tour visits Surquillo No. 1 Market (where Central and Maido chefs shop) for tastings of exotic fruits, dozens of chili varieties, and Andean tubers, followed by anticuchos (grilled beef heart skewers), empanadas, and a pisco sour. Tours cost $37–65 per person and depart from Miraflores; guides explain Lima's extraordinary fusion of Andean, Spanish, Japanese (Nikkei), and African culinary traditions.

Seasonal note: Year-round; markets are busiest Mon–Sat mornings. Most operators offer both morning and afternoon departures.
