Summary: This was a really great tour! We loved trying so many uniquely Peruvian foods, and getting behind the scenes looks at historic locations and kitchens in Barranco. Our guide Marcos was very knowledgeable and engaging, and though not vegan himself, he was interested in why we were vegan. Barranco is a lovely neighborhood to walk around in and it was great to have a guide who knew all the spots to check out! Highly recommended!
