  • Mercado nro 1 de Surquillo
    Begin your experience by exploring one of Lima's busiest neighborhood markets while learning about Surquillo's daily life, local businesses, and culinary traditions. A short walk leads to a local cevichería, where you'll enjoy Peru's national dish, Ceviche, accompanied by your choice of Chicha Morada, a refreshing local beverage, or a traditional Andean Iced Tea (Emoliente). Your guide will explain the origins of ceviche, its cultural significance, and why it has become Peru's most iconic dish.

Enjoy a shared tasting of authentic Amazonian specialties, including Tacacho con Cecina, Juane, roasted plantains, Amazonian sausage, and fresh regional salads, while learning about unique ingredients such as Cocona and the intensely flavorful Charapita chili pepper, both native to the Peruvian rainforest. Your guide will explain the traditions, biodiversity, and cultural heritage that make Amazonian cuisine unlike any other in South America.
