Unique and Well Worth Experience - Lucas was an amazing guide, and this was a wonderful tour! It was a small group tour which was nice, and I was the only one who didn't speak Spanish but he made sure to translate everything for me, from group conversations to vendor explanations. Seeing the fish market was a unique experience, and I enjoyed learning about and trying the local fruits and food. It felt like I was learning while going grocery shopping which I absolutely loved! This is a tour that I would recommend if you want a unique tour that gives you a quick peek into the daily lives of the local Lima community and you want to experience something beyond going to museums or restaurants. Also, shout out to Ernesto for being a fantastic driver - punctual, safe, and patient!

Wonderful Sampling of Peruvian Food - Luca gave us a wonderful overview of Peruvian food. We started at the fish market, then went to a market where we tasted a number of Peruvian fruits, most of which we had never had. We ended at Market #2, where we shared 4 dishes at one vendor and then had a ceviche master demonstrate making ceviche, which we then enjoyed. Luca picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel in Miraflores, so this tour was very convenient. The highlights were the fruit and ceviche.

Amazing for families - We went to two amazing market, and then the fishing area by the pier! It was such a great experience for our entire family! We had ages 1 to 50 and everyone enjoyed it! Our tour guide, Lucas was really kind. Made us feel really safe and really knowledgeable of the Peruvian food…. We ate at a spot that was featured in Netflix and we had some really good ceviche in our ceviche making course… we tried some delicious fruits at the fruit market! And got to visit the beach with the pier and the fishing market! We had a one year-old, a nine-year-old, and for adults and it was just such a great family experience!

Amazing food experience - Fantastic tour inside Peruvian food culture. The guide Lucas was just amazing: he was full of information about both Peruvian history and the Peruvian food culture. I really recommend this experience for a deep step into the mixology of Peruvian food, its recipes and the variety of local ingredients. Thank you Lucas for the great time spent together.

Great Street Food Tour with Johnny Lucas! - We had an amazing time on this tour with Johnny. He answered all our questions, explained everything clearly, and shared some fascinating history about Peru and Lima. His English was excellent, and he really adapted the tour to our group. The food was delicious – we tried things we would never have chosen ourselves. Everything was very well organized. Our driver Ernesto was fantastic – punctual, friendly, and reliable. We could fix our pickup location in advance, and he brought us back safely to the meeting point. Highly recommended! Five stars!

Lima Local Markets tour. - My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed the three small local markets, and Any was full of information. Loved the fruit tasting and our seafood market lunch. We would not have been able to find these markets or appreciate them on our own.
