Great food, Excellent Guide - a perfectly-curated experience! - Our Lima Gourmet Food tour (evening) was excellent - made even better by our fantastic guide Patricia. The stops were each carefully-chosen (not touristy) and the dishes weren't just "samples" - they were full dishes of delicious food, each stop building on the last. No stop was rushed, and each dish was carefully explained. It was a wonderful, curated experience. Our group ranged in age from 17 to 51 and we're still talking about the great time we had.
