"...We didn’t just try snacks — we learned who eats them, when, and why they matter. Vendors greeted our guide by name, and we felt like guests being introduced, not customers passing through. For a few hours, Lima stopped being a ‘tourist destination’ and became someone’s real city."
Walking through the markets with a local changed everything....
We aim to enchant, so we get 5-star reviews left and right!
