A wild ride of food in Lima
"Choji took us places that we never would have found on our own. We were able to taste the food from many down-to-earth Lima restaurants. Some restaurants had been there since the 1960s but also very small, locally run establishments. Most importantly, all the food delicious! Muy Rico!"

Knowledgable, thoughtful guide
"Ivonne was very knowledgeable and showed us many interesting free museums that were off the main streets and which contained great information on Lima & Peru as well as unique architecture. We were traveling with a toddler and Ivonne was thoughtful and flexible to our needs throughout the tour. "

Behind the Scenes Food Tour
"Choji was a great tour guide. He took us off the beaten track to places we would not have found on our own including places in Chinatown and the large Lima market. One of the places we went for a sandwich was very small & nondescript and we definitely would not have known to stop and what to order. We went back later on own the food was so good. Choji was also very knowledgeable on history and other topics. "

So much great information
"Carlos told us so much about Lima and Peru: it's history, architecture, and where it is today. It really helped put our whole trip to Peru in context. Carlos is extremely knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. He showed us historical and beautiful buildings in El Centro, and really helped us understand them and the city - he didn't just give us the dry facts. It was a great tour! Thanks you, Carlos!"

Amazing experience in Central Lima
"Our food tour with Choji was one of our favorite experiences in our whole trip in Peru! Choji's energy is infectious and he really takes care to make sure everyone is having a good time. We got to see so many parts of Central Lima that I never would've seen on my own and felt extremely safe the whole time. Would definitely do it again in a heartbeat "
