Highlights

In this intimate tasting session, you’re welcomed into a local home in Cusco to discover the flavors, customs, and food traditions that shape everyday life in Peru. This is a chance to slow down, taste thoughtfully, and experience Peruvian food in a more personal and meaningful way. Each tasting is presented with the stories and cultural context behind it, helping you see how local ingredients, heritage, and tradition come together at the table. The atmosphere is relaxed, warm, and personal, like being invited to share food in someone’s home rather than joining a standard tour. As the session unfolds, your host shares anecdotes, customs, and small details that turn each tasting into something deeper than just a flavor. Rather than watching a staged presentation, you get a genuine glimpse into how Peruvians gather, serve, and share food with others. Seats are intentionally limited to keep the experience personal, so early booking is recommended.

About Cusco

Cusco, the old Inca capital high in the Peruvian Andes, blends massive stone walls with colonial churches and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.

The Plaza de Armas is the heart of the city, framed by the cathedral and the Jesuit church of La Compañía. Inca stonework survives throughout the centre, most famously at the Qorikancha, the sun temple on which the Spanish built a monastery, and in the twelve-angled stone on Hatun Rumiyoc street. San Blas, the artisans' quarter, climbs steeply with workshops and cafés.

Top-ranked sights in Cusco: Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo Ruins.
