Lima food tour review - This was the most amazing food tour - Bruce, the tour guide had so many good and funny stories, we felt safe and so full of food we would have otherwise not found. The food was exeptional and super original. We highly recommended Inka Pride Tours.

Authentic, spontaneous food tour for trying out truly delicious Peruvian food - Had an awesome time with Bruce from Inka Pride Tours as my food tour guide. Bruce met us and took us on the local bus to outside the ultra-touristy area to local joints with delicious, Peruvian food. The food included local street food as well as Amazonian cuisine. Bruce was entertaining, passionate, very informative about the culture and history of Peru, and treated us like friends that he was showing around his neighbourhood - lots of places that you wouldn’t know to find as a gringo. Would recommend 100%

A great food tour! - Bruno will bring you to his favourite top tier spots and I can confirm they were great! We tried different dishes and while on our way to the next stops he explained the history and origins of several dishes or why they were popular in Lima.

Highly recommended - Amazing tour with Bruce. He is so knowledgeable about everything Peru, its food and so much more. He has a way of making you feel like a friend instead of a customer. Even went the extra mile of walking me to my uber. Highly recommend booking a tour with him, you will not be disappointed!

Best - I did the food tour with Bruce... wow! Very interesting. He's respectful and makes you think. A really good tour. He showed me some great insider tips and things you wouldn't find as a tourist. I'm a chef and I've done my homework, but he showed me the best cervix. I can only recommend it if you're interested in food. Greetings from Sardinia!
